Neither Netbus or BackOriface provide any machanisms for attacking a
machine.  Netbus is sold just like any other remote monitoring and admin
tool including several that cost thousands of dollars.  CDC (the authors
of BO) have a webpage pointing out that there is almost no difference
between their product that the Microsoft System Management Server.  It's
at http://www.cultdeadcow.com/news/pr19990719.html.  Basicaly the
fundimental difference is that BO2K is free and SMS is really expensive.
