Is it possible to make a remote desktop connection if the remote computer is
XP home? i have no problems connecting to XP Pro edition using the remote
desktop connection software, but in XP home i only see the option to remote
to other machines, not accept remote assistance.

I'm afraid not. Remote Desktop as a host is not available in XP Home.
