Managing a Windows Server 2003 domain via Windows Vista

I am looking for a way to manager our domain (Windows Server 2003 servers) through Windows Vista. Basically I want to be able to access Active directory, etc. for our domain without having to remote desktop into our 2003 server. I would like to do the domain administration in my Windows Vista platform. Anyone know of a solution for this? I can not find anything. Thanks for the help.

Here is a workaround
One person claims that the easiest way is to run the .msi from an elevated cmd prompt.
Should that failthen..

Follow these instructions to register all the dlls after install of the admin pack.

Microsoft also adds a fix of sorts.

Hopefully they will soon have the Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) available.
