So you want all the functionality of psexec without installing psexec?

You want to remote control any windows machine from your linux laptop?
	Without rdesktop, vnc, or previously touching any machine.

You need to do a lot more windows programming reading or are you 
trolling.

Your digging for a magic worm you can let loose on a windows network,
and control any machine you want on it. Any real admin isn't that lazy. 
If you are for some reason a real admin looking for this functionality,
let me know, so I can come over and sniff for your wireless AP, and send
random commands to your windows servers as well.  Come on...Windows
isn't that insecure...
