What do you mean?
You can connect to other computers, like XP Pro or Vista Business/Ultimate,
using the RDC client in Vista Home.
You can't connect from Business or Ultimate "to" Vista Home, because it
doesn't have the "server".

Sorry, you cannot use Vista Home as an RDP host, only as a client. There
are third-party utilities that allow you to connect to Vista Home but if you
don't want Ultimate or Business then you probably don't want third-party
stuff either.

Subscribe to a third-party service like GoToMyPC.

Google: "Adding RDP to Vista Home Premium". There is a hack available.

One Example:

I am posting this from my XP Desktop through my Vista Home Premium laptop.
It can be done.
