Set up remote desktop

[Carrie Cook]

I am new to the whole remote desktop thing. Basically,
what I need to know is how to access my work computer
running WinXP Pro from my home computer using Win2000 with
a TCP/IP protocol so that I can access my accounting
software at work, which does not allow use of Netbui.

Thanks
Carrie

If your home PC is behind a firewall/NAT/router make sure TCP Port 3389 is forwarded/opened. Call
using the public IP of the home PC, ie. the IP assigned by your ISP.
