APM: RPC on windows

Tom Bakken's last post got me thinking about the possibilities of remote
administration of Windows machines.  To what extent can 
one administer Windows machines from a remote client, be it Linux,Unix
or Windows?  Is it possible, assuming the correct
permissions/credentials are in place, to do remote installation of
software or file uploads?  Perlifying something akin to Symantec
Corporate Edition's ultra-nifty remote client installation functionality
in my own software would be very handy! 

I'm not very familiar with Perl/CPAN code for Windows but I'm an
experienced Perlite so simply pointing me in the right direction would
be helpful enough!

thanks,
