Re: How to remote access Windows XP Pro computer?

Forgot about all that hassel use logmein.com. It is free and you do not have
to worry about port forwarding or anything like that.

The only drawback is you can not copy files from one machine to another on
the free version. I use this for my remote stores and it works just fine.
You can even reboot the system from the remote unit.

This just requires a small program be installed in each computer you want to
access and both can be accessed from the same account. The main account will
have one password to access it and a second password for each computer.

Signing up is easy you only need to give your email address for your account
name and nothing else. Takes about 5 minutes to set this up.

Been using this for well over a year and no issues. I have three other
people setup with this system too.

I guess this question has been asked many times. But when I search the
web, I can not find the solution for me.

I want to connect 2 computers, both are Windows XP pro.

One is the work PC on company's LAN which I set it to use the static
IP: 192.168.40.119, etc by copy the "ipconfig / all" output. Another
Windows XP pro PC at home using DSL to connect to the internet(a
firewall is sitting between the DSL and my home PC.

I have checked both PC system property=>remote=>Allow users to connect
remotely to this computer. I can use the remote desktop in this way
for 2 Windows XP pro PC at LAN (both are on the same LAN). But my home
PC can not connect to work PC and work PC can not connect home PC.

I try to use the UltraVNC. But I still can not connect to each other.
Maybe I do not setup the VNC correctly? But how to set it correctly?

Also, I want to connect to my friend's PC which is also Windows XP pro
and connect to internet via DSL. How to set it up?

Can anyone give me a detail steps? Does the LAN administrator or the
DSL service provider has to been involved to change the router
setting, etc?

I am new to remote access.

Thanks for your help.
