Re: Remote access to 8.0.4 on NT

As long as it concerns only Oracle: use Oracle Enterprise Manager (is included with the standard product). This will allow for worldwide administration, depending on your sqlnet configuration, and if necessary the database can be anywhere (it is a bit exciting though to reboot from the Netherlands a database residing in Pennsylvania, I had to do that in the past). Sqlnet over a dialup line works fine, though you might consider getting a fixed line. You should be able to reboot a host with OEM, so you probably don't need pcanywhere.
