Terminal Services is a component of the Windows Server line of
products. So perhaps you mean the Remote Desktop feature found
in Windows XP. For more information search the Windows XP
Professional Help and Support Center for the following
Suggested Topics by the title:

Set up this computer to use Remote Desktop
Allow other users to connect to your computer

For additional information about Remote Desktop, see the following
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article and click the article numbers at
the bottom of the page:

KB315328 - How to Use the Remote Desktop Feature of Windows
XP Professional
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?Product=winxp&scid=kb;en-us;315328

And you may want to post Remote Desktop questions in the Windows
XP Newsgroup named: Working Remotely

The following page has links you can click to access the newsgroup with
