What admin task that you can perform at the Windows 2000 console, can you *not* perform with Terminal Services?

Right, it's not as easy to install as Dameware (admittedly), but, on the Console, go to "Control Panel", "Add/Remove programs", "Add/Remove Windows Components", then make sure "Terminal Services" is ticked.
When you click OK, Windows will ask if you want to use it in Remote Administration mode or Remote Application mode. Using Remote Application mode requires access to a Terminal Services Licensing server (which costs extra), so use "Remote Administration" mode. This is free, but you cannot have any more than 3 administrators attached.
