remotely control windows 98 from windows xp ?

Hi,
I want to control an older notebook running windows98se from my
windowsXP box via Remote Desktop.
Is this possible? I found this article, but it seems to be the opposite
of what i want.

Remote desktop can only connect to an XP Pro computer. Meaning only xp pro
can be the host. If you want to connect with a remote desktop emulation
program to a win98 computer, you will have to use a third party app to do
this, such as VNC or Remote Admin or even Netmeeting works.

NetMeeting is free too... It comes with windows.

Start->Programs->Accessories->Communications->Netmeeting
