Hi, Are you talking about connecting a telnet session to the remote PC?

No, i dont think i am..
If you have ever used a product called Dameware they have a remote console..
it allows you to open a command line on a remote machine. So it is basically
just like opening a dos/cmd.exe shell on your own pc, cept the commands are
being run from a remote pc. hope that doesnt confuse, but the only was i
know how to explain it.

Below is a screenshot, if words speak a thousand words then this may help..

Sure sounds like telnet to me........they may have a fancy interface in
front of it but it is still basically telnet.

The sockets namespace may have what you are looking for.

Check out in the 101 samples the "VB.NET How To Sockets Client"

Its a decent start, but it uses a client piece.. of course i am looking for
an agent-less piece.. its an administration piece i'm working on so the less
clients on the pc, the better.

I've seen this before, there's an app called GenControl, which allows you to
remotely control a remote PC, without any client software on it... however,
it copies client software over to it.

Basically, it pushes the software down the IPC pipe, create a service,
remoteley, then remotely runs the service. The tool you've described will do
exactly what xCmd does.

It is do-able in the .NET languages, but not natively. You'll have to use a
lot of unmanaged code for creating services, NT authentication, etc.
