RDP file redirection from XP to Win2k

I have several XP machines that can RDP each other and use file
redirection with no problem. My office machine however is a Win2k
server. If I RDP into that machine, it does not map local drives to
its Win Explorer. I just installed the latest XP remote desktop file
on my office machine hoping that it would allow file redirection to
occur during an RDP session to that machine.

No luck though! It looks as if the Win2k machine still uses terminal
server to accept the RDP call.

Is there any way to make the Win2k machine do file redirection from an
XP client using RDP? I know terminal server allows more than one
connection but I'd gladly trade that feature for file redirection!

Thanks in advance!

Windows 2000 Server remote desktop sessions do not include
what is more or less an inbuilt VPN. You will have to set it up
manually.
