Remote Access a Win2000 Pro from WinXP remotely

How can I use Remote Desktop Connection to remotely control a Win2000 Pro
machine over the internet? I have used NetMeeting in the past but remote
desktop connection seems to be much better.

I am also looking for the port number that I would need to open up on my
firewall to allow this traffic through.

Port 3389 is the default port for Remote Desktop.
However, Windows 2000 Professional does not include Remote Desktop.

You should consider something like UltraVNC.
