Hey Sorin,
The command line support for mmc.exe sucks. If you look in the help for
mmc, you'll see there are only a few switches, none of which allows you to
specify a target machine. I guess it makes sense though, since mmc doesn't
know if it's going to host snap-ins that support remote connections. But I
want it to anyway. :)
I've gotten into the habit of using sc.exe. That's a command line service
manager. It's definitely a nice little tool and should be on any
XP-or-after machine by default, I believe. Sample:
sc \\costanzo-r-xp1 config messenger start= demand
sc \\costanzo-r-xp1 start messenger
net send costanzo-r-xp1 Hi
sc \\costanzo-r-xp1 stop messenger
sc \\costanzo-r-xp1 config messenger start= disabled
Note that in the config command, you have to have the exect format I have
above, with no space before the equals and one space after. This got my
goat when I first started using sc. :)

Is there any way to start up a mmc-session on your local computer but view
eg
the services on a remote computer from Start/run?
Like so: services.msc \\remoteserver
What I'm after is a simple way to get straight to the services-view of the
remote server, without using a custom mmc with snapins or psexec.
