'Callback' is a server side setting and your remote server should be
configured for this. Once this is done, from your client, while making a
connection, you should get a callback message box where you need to type-in
the number which server should call-back.

Incoming connections are different. By creating an incoming connection, a
computer can act as a remote access server if it is running Windows 2000
Professional, Windows XP Professional, or Windows XP Home Edition, or if it
is a stand-alone computer running Windows 2000 Server.

Hope it helps,
Thanks,
Dinesh.
