Remote desktop is... useable, but I'd like to get a proper remote terminal window open on the Windows XP machine, like I'm able to with Linux. A quick Google points at this, but it looks like it's only for Vista/Server.

I've used PsExec, from PsTools to run commands on remote systems. Although this won't give you a true, interactive shell, it can be useful for automatic specific tasks on remote machines. The other strength of PsExec is that you do not need to modify the remote system in any way, installing and running PsExec on the "client" machine is sufficient.

Windows XP already includes a Telnet server. You can secure it with IPSEC if you want.
