You can manage them if you can ping them, or can connect to them directly.
If you have VPN setup in your network then you can manage it from anywhere in the internet.
So many s/w available for this.
1. PCAnywhere
2. Terminal client
3. Remote Desktop
4. Win VNC
and ofcourse VPN.
I probably should have been more specific. I realize terminal services, vpn was the way to go. All of those would require a full-blown laptop to take care of. I am more interested in the smallest device/software I can take with me to manage the servers. That's why I was looking at the pocket dba
In that case pocket dba may be a better option for you. Pocket dba started with Oracle database, sql server support is new. Not sure how good is it though.
