Michael,
Windows NT4 Server does not support Terminal Services. In its time there
was a Windows NT4 Terminal Services Edition flavor of Windows NT4 Server.
Using only Windows NT4 Servers you cannot RDP from an XP workstation to a
Windows NT4 network.
You could potentially accomplish this by adding one Windows 2000 server to
your NT network to act as the Terminal Services host.
