Installing from a client PC using Terminal Services installation goes just
like you were sitting at the console. Installing from a client without
using Terminal Services you're pretty much on your own--in theory it can be
done, in practice I don't know of anybody who bothers--you get into remote
registry editing and that sort of thing and there are no canned tools to
support it.
