Any tips or tools for monitoring whether or not a given application is executing on a different machine (i.e. on a server) - we have some maintenance apps that I need to check are up and running...thoughts?

have you tried using Remote Desktop?
I do that but this requires getting a special access account to remote into a production server.
What I was thinking is maybe monitoring performance counters on a different machine or using .NET remoting for apps to broadcast their healthiness?
pslist wraps the performance counter API and supports remote machines.
