Remote Setup

[Guest]

Hi! I need help setting up a remote conncection. I have Windows XP Home Ed. and I would like to acces my computer over my schools LAN Network. How do I setup a connection?

You won't be able to do Remote Desktop as it is not supported
server-wise in XP Home Edition...

Take a look at VNC (http://ultravnc.sourceforge.net) and see if it
might do what you would like...

Read up on VNC, as Jeffrey mentions. Also, once you've done that, tell us
more about the school network and where your XP Home machine is in relation
to it.
