You can telnet to a remote UNIX computer from Windows or UNIX: $telnet yourdomain.com or $telnet ip address of a computer
Server responds with login prompt: $login: You just need to type your username, hit enter and type your password at password prompt. Remember that login for root user is usually not allowed from the network for security reasons. If you need a root access, you login first as another existing user (say, admin). Such a user must be a member of a root (wheel) group. Then you issue a command: $su - System will ask for a root password and let you in.
