XP Pro as a Terminal Services Server

[Guest]

Can my XP Professional home system act as a terminal services server for my
XP Pro laptop? In system Properties->Remote I allowed other comuter to
remotely access the home system and I have firewall turned off. I also fixed
the registry to have that system advertise terminal server. My home system
still wont let me connect

No, you need a server operating system to run a Terminal Services
server. You can, however, use Remote Desktop and have XP Pro act as
host. Put "Remote Desktop" into XP's Help & Support for details.
