I threw together a small app to let me control the DF local services on my laptop, I got sick of navigating to the services to increase battery time every time I unplug. Still trying to figure out how to automatically detect the unplugging, but that's another topic...

While putting it together I noticed that it's a small step to go from controlling the services locally to doing it on remote machines. (Windows only at this point. If you're using an *nix you can probably automate this yourself anyway)

There are already a bunch of utilities that monitor status and output, but none of them actually allow you to remotely control clients. I'm also starting to think it would be cool to automatically recover crashed clients, need to think about that one more.

Any interest in this?
