I know that remote desktop connection between xp pro. or xp pro and win2003.
Does win2k support it? I mean server part not client part or need third party
to intall to win2k?

Thanks in advance.

Yes - you can install Terminal Services in admin mode on the Win2000
server - it will allow for two (three?) concurrent admin logins with no TS
licenses needed. Then use the RD client to connect to it.

You can't run terminal services/RD hosting on a Windows 2000 Pro
workstation, though. You'd need third party stuff like one of the VNC
variants.

It does work quite well to use current versions of UltraVNC to get access to
the console session from a background Admin mode terminal services session
on a Windows 2000 server, however.

You can even install, configure, and get this working from the remote
location if you have access to the registry created by a valid install with
a password from another machine, and aren't afraid of rebooting the server a
few times.

Yep. But as they say, it's usually "good enough for government work."
