I want to be able to remote manage a win2K pro machine on the local
network. I will be managing it from a winXP or Win2003 server that
already does remote management.

I downloaded and installed the remote management client software
mentioned here:

I now can locate the Remote Management server tool (to attach to a
client machine) via start-> Access -> Commun -> RM but I can't find
any options to make THIS machine eligible to be a client... what I
really need to do!

Where do I go to enable this machine a client ?

You are talking about Remote Desktop. Only WinXP Professional and
Windows Server machines can act as a host for an RDP session. For
Windows 2000 PCs you have to use an alternative product such as
WinVNC.
