And how is the security addressed then? Can I, being logged in
remotely, see the network shares mounted by someone else?
Also, with (almost) none of command line administration utilities,
what's the point of logging in remotely? What can I do with the
dos command line?
Arbitrary NT application can not display on the remote screens.
Every NT program has to reinvent the client-server scheme over
again to give the user such a possibility.
