Remote Desktop Init.

OK, figured that out.
Is there any MS supplied software that will let me view
the active desktop of a pc while someone is working on
it? If not, I'll have to use VNC, but I was hoping to use
a MS util.

Yep... Log into another Windows XP Box (not the one you want to
shadow) via Terminal Services. Type in the "shadow 0
/server:machinename" command from inside that TS session... Note that
in a non-domain environment, the other user will be asked for
permission.
