This page illustrates how my home LAN addressing is setup to use static
private LAN IP addresses for my two XP Pro desktops.
http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.org/LAN/The_Illustrated_Network.html
In my case I use 192.168.11.X addresses based on my use of a Buffalo WBR-G54
router.
In the case of Remote Desktop it does not matter what the remote address
range is in, ie. I can RD into my home LAN from a remote PC with a
192.168.11.11 address to my home XP Pro box that also uses a 192.168.11.11
address.
