Vista to XP: Remote Desktop

Hello,

I have a Windows XP Professional computer
in the office and would like to log into it from
my Windows Vista Home Premium so that
the whole desktop is sent over the network.
Various software and hardware customer
support services allow you to allow them
control over your desktop pointer so that
they can fix your problems with the
computer. Ideally one should be
able to do the same to log into
a computer remotely.

Many thanks on help on how to do this,

Thanks a lot,

John Goche

If other firewalls and routers are involved, the proper ports will need to
be allowed.

In many ways, a better (not built in) solution may be TeamViewer.
