I have been a huge fan of PsExec ever since I became and SCCM Administrator. The problem with PsExec is that it transmits credentials in clear text. There is a great alternative to this and it is PAExec. It is freeware and can be redistributed. It has all of the same functionality as PsExec with a few additional minor features. You can get the software at PowerAdmin.
