Since you can remote into other computers (mainly WinXP Pro that I know of), is it possible to remote into a computer with Windows 2000 Pro? If so, how do I go about enabling that on a Windows 2000 Pro machine? I couldn't find the option.

For windows 2000 you need to have windows 2000 Server with Terminal Services enabled...regular Pro wont cut it. As suggested check out http://realvnc.com , it provides the same functionality just without the reality of actuallity "logging in" to the machine with a windows password, just the vnc password.

Just curious, how would I go about configuring this on a network? I'm going to set this up for work with multiple users and we're on a network here. If I'm not mistaken, I woulud use RealVNC to access the outside network address and then have to change the firewall settings to forward that port request to a computer using VNC right? What if multiple people want to use it then? (still new to networking :p)
