No....Brian's just confused about the relationship between client and
server. Since they are both running on the same box, its a lot neater to
run the target from the server rather than copy it to the client and play
it there. RTFM for program execution functions. You should see the online
copy and notes elsewhere on long running processes (since it's MS-Windows
you should prefix the command line of the player app with 'start').
