Ok, so I can remotely enable remote desktop. But what about remotely disabling windows firewall? Over the weekend I setup a new server box and managed to fit it in my server closet.
But I didn't just install Windows Server 2003, I installed Windows Server 2003 SP1. So even though I remembered to enable remote desktop, I forgot about opening up a hole for it in Windows Firewall. If this can't be done then I'll probably drag a keyboard and monitor over to my closet and do this, but I'm hoping there is some way this can be done remotely (although I'm guessing there isn't since that might be a hole in Windows Firewall).
Update: I figured out last night that Windows Firewall wasn't the problem. During the Windows 2003 setup I *thought* I had assigned a static IP to the main NIC, but it turns out that I had actually assigned the static IP to the 1394 Net Adapter instead. DOH! So when I remoted in using the machine name instead of the IP everything worked. Silly me...
