Remote Desktop for windows 2000...

[Guest]

Hello EVeryone,

Is it possible to connect from one W2k computer to another W2k computer
using Remote Desktop, via the remote desktop install from microsoft. Also is
there any white paper explaining or stating this?


Thanks,
Ross

No, this is not possible - you need a WinXP Professional PC
or a Windows Server to act as an RDP host. You would have
to use some other products such as WinVNC.

Turn on "Remote Assistance" and "Remote Desktop" from the System Control
Panel>Remote tab...

So, how would I setup the XP box up? Just put it on the network where the
others are?

you would have to use remote desktop through Netmeeting or VNC.

Oh, shoot... you're right. That capability is only on XP...
