I have written something like this for Linux (for fun). The protocol ought to work for other systems too, and the server side (on the machine you want to control) doesn't have to do all that much really. Take a look at vtgrab (http://cyberelk.net/tim/vtgrab). It shouldn't take too much effort for someone to get a DOS port going.
