Rather than running "Command", I prefer to run "CMD". Note that command.com (at least on my XP Pro box here) is a 16-bit process, and can only spawn a shell that takes short file and directory names.

My favourite command is "FOR". It's practically an entire programming language to itself. Type "FOR /?" to get an idea of what it can do.

Don't forget that variation on the Remote Desktop...useful when you want to get to the console version of your server.

Make sure to replace the 'FS01' with the name of your server or desktop :)

mstsc /v:FS01 /console
