Authenticate to Windows standalone server?

Hey guys,

Let's say there's a Windows 2003 standalone server "w2k3-standalone" and I have a local user account "antonio" on it.

How can I check the fileshares, or find the users logged into a Windows 2003 standalone server using "query session /server:w2k3-standalone" from another standalone or domain-joined computer? I'd like to remotely manage this box, but can't when all the sessions are taken.

How can I pass my "w2k3-standalone\antonio" credentials?

Thanks,
Antonio
 
Are you talking about Administrative Terminal Server sessions (three of them are allowed, two remote and one console). Can you reserve the console session for your own use? Or have idle sessions reset after a set time interval?

I'm trying to access either current Terminal Service sessions, remote management, or file shares without physical access to the server (or, in the case of TS, when all three sessions are taken). Is there a way to pass authentication credentials, similar to runas.exe?

I can't enable session idle timeouts since people leave jobs running in disconnected sessions. But, I'd like to be able to tell who is on the server either by forcing a logoff, or simply querying for a list of TS users. You really begin to appreciate the directory authentication concept in comparison.
