remote control safe mode

Does anyone know a way to remote control an XP computer thats has been booted into safe mode w/ networking?

We have tried the built in tool but I am thinking there is some service that needs to be kicked off or running and safe mode turns it off.

Thanks

Well according to my box, Remote Desktop Help Session Manager only has one dependency, & that's remote procedure call - which ought to be going, if safemode with networking was selected ..

..Safe Mode with Networking (SAFEBOOT_OPTION=Network): This option uses a minimal set of device drivers and services to start Windows together with the drivers that you must have to load networking...

So I suppose check that RPC is on (& also the help session manager service), but lots of spyware/malware likes to attack this specifically, so I might start with that, however all this would depend on why this user is having to resort to safe mode, in the first place ..

I have had to use Remote Desktop several times in safe mode w/networking and have had no problems doing so.
Make sure the RDP is running.
