If you guys really love VNC (and who doesn't?!) - try STRCM here: http://www.systemtools.com/strcm_frame.htm

This tool allows you to remotely install and view NT/2000 boxes on your network, pending you have the appropriate permissions, that is -

We use SMS here, but sometimes SMS won't work quite right, so I use this as a backup.

Use it in conjunction with TightVNC - it's a perfect fit.

Later!
