@ali: I don’t have readline support. I never experienced problems with running an interactive session. What are the symptoms for you, when you connect and try to start cmd.exe?

I can execute noninteractive commands with winexe quite well but I can’t get an interactive session like in your screenshot (except on one vista box but never on an xp) no matter if I use the binary from the winexe-site or the one I built myself. Also do you have readline-support?

…just use the integrated telnet server of any windows, thru an AD policy to start automatically and done; this guys have a nice port of openssh http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/, but is very old and not updated…

It can be used over the internet, although usernames/passwords and all data is transferred in plain, so someone on the way can easily capture it.

In short – use VPN.

Do you know if this can be used to access servers across the internet? So far ive only been able to connect to machines on my local lan, which doesnt help with remote servers. Do you know if any ports need to be opened for this to happen? What protocol does it use?
