Finally got remote desktop to work



I finally got rdp to work, I had a firewall issue in McAfee's program.
Thanks Al Sooner for your help...

Now the question that I have is... I would like to access all of the
machines on my home network, from the office.

3 different machines on the same network, plus a wireless printer. I would
like to access these pc's so if my kids have a problem I could see or
install the programs for their computers as an administrator.

I work a 24 hr shift, and sometimes they can not wait till I get home.

Is this at all possible?? I mean if I have them place the CD in the drive
at home, and I install it from work over the Remote Desktop??? Since I have
full control of the PC.

Thanks, Jamie
