I need to set up host for RDC but when I open the "Remote" tab in the
""system properties window to check the box under the tab "Remote Desktop" to
allow users to connect remotely to this computer. Problem is that there is no
area in that window I mean 2nd half of that window under the area of "Remote
Assistance", there is nothing where it supposed to be "Remote Desktop".
I would appereciate if some one can guide me. thanks.
Host machine is running XP sp2.

Remote Desktop is only available in the Professional version of
Windows XP. It sounds as if your host machine has Home Edition
installed. In order to establish a remote connection to this
machine you'd have to use a third party program such as UltraVNC.
Take a look here for details:
