A GUI to enable Remote Desktop feature remotely

This is a little tool that could be useful in a lot of scenario (thanks to Bink for the signalling): StartRDP.

Have you ever forgot to start the "Remote Desktop" option in Windows XP or in Windows 2003 Server after installation and you've discovered this lack only when you need to work with your remote machine? To resolve this issue you had to interactively login to the system and mark the "Remote Desktop" checkbox in the computer properties... If you are on a remote side, this thing is really difficult (you have to enable it using remote registry, group policy (if you're a member of a domain) etc.).

Now, with StartRDP you can remotely configure the Remote Desktop to accept RDP connections with a simple GUI interface. Wonderful!
