I don't know of Win XP supports this stock or not, but I've seen folks 
enable Telnet servers on Win XP allowing remote access through command line.  
The CLI on Win XP blows though, so unless Sync has some nice command line 
tools or you add some Unix-style apps to give more features, I don't know of 
Win XP's CLI is much useful.
