Is it possible to remotely connect between winXP Pro and win2000? IF so,
how is this accomplished?

Define "between".

Windows 2000 can use the Remote Desktop Client software (available for
download from Microsoft) to connect to an XP computer. But the reverse does
not work - Windows 2000 Professional does not have the ability to host a
remote connection.

Added software, like RealVNC from http://www.realvnc.com/ can be used to
connect between computers where Microsoft doesn't have the capability to do
so.
