Is it possible to setup such that one can remote desktop into Windows 2000
from Windows XP Pro?

Any links, points or suggestion on how to accomplish this would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately no. You need WinXP Pro as an RDP host,
or Windows 2000/2003 server.
 
Was able to come up with a work around by using 3rd party (ie non MS)
software...RealVNC Server on Windows 2000 and RealVNC viewer on XP Pro. This
combination provides the functionality I am looking for.

Was hoping for a native Windows solution. Oh well...I should know better!

Thanks,
