remote execution in windows server via telnet

Question

I need to start a process and keep it running on several remote windows (03 and 08) servers. When I telnet in and start the process and sign out of my telnet session, the process dies.

I changed the registry settings so the pertinent tlntadmn output looks like this: End tasks on disconnect : NO

restarting the service and/or rebooting the server have had no effect. My processes still die when the telnet session ends.

Any advice?

My advice would be to ask this question at serverfault.com, which is similar to SO but focuses on sysadmin stuff. As I know near nothing about telnet, if you can't figure this out take a look at PsExec, which will let you run executables on remote machines in various ways.
