access computer on same network

[shawn mcgee]

i want to work on a computer from a different computer that is on the same
network. I set up remote desktop on the host computer (XP pro) to receive
incoming connections and also on the properties tab of my computer and when i
go to the other computer i hit remote desktop and then the dropdown to browse
for the host. it shows the workgroup, but when i hit the + sign it says "The
workgroup does not contain any terminal servers"
