Is it possible to use RDP from a WinXP machine (client) to conenct to a
Win2000 machine (host)?

I have installed the required RDP client on the Win2000 machine. I see no
instructions on the Microsoft site on how to configure this client on the
Win2000 machine.

It seems I can use the RDP client on the Win2000 machine to successfully
connect to a WinXP machine with RDP configured. And of course, I am able to
use RDP successfully between two WinXP machines that are configured.

I am getting the error message: Remote Desktop Disconnected. The client
could not connect to the remote computer. Remote connections might not be
enabled.

I sure would like to know how to configure the RDP that is now loaded on the
Win2000 workstation.

Thanks,
orchidhabit
