I use rdp for remote admin tasks. For many things vnc would do the
job, as long as the vnc server is running on the target machine or I
can talk the user through launching it. If I run into a permissions
problem (the user is not an admin and I need to install a package)
then there's no substitute for rdp. For the full Windows server rdp
you can have multiple simultaneous logins, each with their own memory
space.
