Hi ~ FYI ~ i have asked this question already in the network section but no one wanted to give me an answer & i've looked this question up everywhere, but no answer. PLEASE HELP. okay...i am positive i've got remote desktop setup correctly on both xp pro machines, but whenever I try to use the remote desktop connection to connect to another computer on my fully-functional LAN, it says this "the mshome domain/workgroup does not contain any terminal servers". Whats up? any help would be appreaciated.

you have to enable each machine so it can be remote controlled. right click on my computer-> properties... and in one of the tabs theres a box to allow it... i'm not on a xp machine now so cant check atm.
