[wellylug] Remote Assist from Linux

[Ian Beardslee]

Hi all,

Has anyone tried or knows how to provide assistance to a Windows XP 
machine from a Linux machine with the Remote Assist feature that is on 
Windows XP?

Something more useful than - Start >> Run >> format c: /u >> OK

I understand that it uses RDP, so in theory the RDP Desktop that is 
available on most linux distros should be able to do the job.  But there 
seems to be more involved than that.  I'm not sure if I'm asking google 
the rights questions to get my answer.

Cheers,

Ian
