A very usefull feature is the ability to execute commands remotely to many client PCs at the same time. 

In Linux installations, we can **execute any command**, **install a software package**, or even **upgrade distribution** on all client PCs.

In Windows installations, we can **execute console commands or gui applications** (e.g. notepad), or even **clear network users temporary files**, on all client PCs.
