It's not related to file sharing, which hardly could help at all.

You don't need file sharing for that. The program capturing the screen (thus running on the remote system) can act as TCP server for the client running on your computer.

Unless you have a service client installed on that remote machine that can act as a host for your call, I don't think you're going to have much luck. You can't just ping a machine and demand a screen shot of the current desktop state. That would be a quite substantial security breach in the system.

Well, it's like RDP, will require the service, of course. At to security... just like RDP, it could serve only trusted clients, through authentication, etc. Overall, it's not going to be too difficult...

You really need to be more friendly to search engines. Was it so difficult to lookup in Wikipedia?

Please see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Desktop_Services[^].

This is my favorite CodeProject work on RDP client: Palantir - Remote Desktop Manager[^].
