Start a Windows console program from a Mac

Is there any straight way that one can start a Windows console program from a Mac?
Preferrably I would like to something with ssh, but as I am in a private network without Internet, I am not so afraid of security.
I have used VNC, but my users deem it as too slow/uncomfortable.


Solution 1:

Powershell for windows has SSH server capabilities for remote management. Look here for an article by Microsoft about it. You can get Powershell here. There are also several walkthroughs online on how to set up the server.
