Super! (Thanks also to Elvis on the shortcut to services.msc!)

Notes to self (and for others' reference):
Case on password is important.
Didn't find any error log when PC command failed for any reason.
'start notepad' works, but 'start notepad.exe' does weird stuff.
Have to find out if RMTUSER & RMTPWD can be omitted (usage to be confined
within a user application issuing the RUNRMTCMD; if the user is running the
application, the RUNRMTCMD is valid for the user.)

Thanks,
Dan
