Default Re: XP run command remotely

Yeah, absolutely.
the ssh(Secure SHell) protocol will allow you to login to a remote
computer via a command prompt(with the correct firewall settings and
access permissions), and then control that particular computer via a
command window.

Putty is a popular windows ssh client and you can download it for free
everywhere. Just google it.

Also, ssh version 1 isn't so secure. It can be sniffed with most
freeware sniffers.
If youre worried about Man in the middle or data confidentiality,
you'll want to use the sshv2 protocol. Most programs allow you to
choose between v1 and v2.
