Hmmm... no "Remote" tab under Control Panel | System.  Are
you sure that applies to W2KS and not just XP (or, possibly
W2K3?)

However, Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Terminal

to RDP.  And, C P | Admin Tool | Terminal Services Manager
shows RDP-Tcp enabled ("listening") on this machine.

Yes, but i would want to be setting up the server end (xrdp?)
on the NetBSD box (i.e., to use these appliances as clients)

Thanks!  I'll poke around some more.
