Launching applications on remote windows xp from ubuntu 10.04 machine - command-line

I have ubuntu 10.04 installed on my machine. I want to execute commands on remote windows xp machine ( I have username and password of admin account of remote machine ) so as to launch application like Internet Explorer, Notepad or some bat script. Is there any command line utility to do this via ubuntu? I tried rdesktop, winexe, ssh, telnet but they are not much of use. Can you please suggest some other way?

If you are able to install software on the Windows machine, you can use a Virtual Network Computing software (UltraVNC and RealVNC are good).
This will let you connect and interact as if you were in front of the machine.

How do I run eclipse remotely using Cygwin?

I'm running on Windows 7 and I want to be able to access the remote linux server at my school to run eclipse and do my programming assignments.
I installed cygwin, and ssh into the server, but whenever I run the "eclipse" command, it says "Eclipse: Cannot open display".
Is there any additional software I need to do, or commands I need to run in order to display the gui from my windows 7 computer?
aside from just running eclipse on my own computer, I want to do it remotely.
thank you
You need to:
Run an X server on your Windows machine; there's an xorg-server package in cygwin, use that (or the independent Xming).
Configure your ssh client to forward X11 traffic to the X server on your windows machine.
Here's a more detailed tutorial on doing this.

How to access MATLAB installed on a server?

A pretty basic question. The MATLAB is installed on a linux based server. I have windows 7 installed on my system. I want to access MATLAB, how do i do that?
Shall i install some virtual machine or is there a simpler way? Please help.
Thanks.
MATLAB will run on Windows 7, so you could just install it on your Win7 machine. The other more complicated route would be to run a VNC client on the Win7 box and a matching server on the Linux side. Then you can have access to the remote linux desktop from Win7.
