Hosting games via Remote Desktop Connection?

[lch]

Hi, I am in the unfortunate position that my host changes from Linux to Windows. I'll be able to log in via Remote Desktop Connections, but that's about all. At the moment I am hosting my games in screen sessions, I guess that I will have to install something as a service so that I can do anything like it on Windows because otherwise it's going to get killed as soon as I log off the RDC? Could anybody elaborate how to host games with Windows remotely via the RDC?

I'm even thinking about installing and running some VM as a service to get some form of Linux back, but that seems overly complicated aswell. Any insight how things are done "the windows way" (yuck) are greatly appreciated.

BTW, will preexec and postexec work on batch files, or something?
