How can I connect to my friends computer with Remote
Desktop Connection. My friend lives about 2 miles away
and I need to know how to connect useing the remote
desktop. Can i do this and if so how?
 
Your friend will need to enable RDC on his computer (Right Click on "My
Computer", Select Properties, then the Remote Tab make sure the "Allow users
to connect remotely to this computer" box is checked" and he will need to
add you to the Remote Users group (Use the "Select Remote Users" button on
the same page) if he has not he will need to create a user account for you
first.

I would point out that if you log in using RDC he will not be able to see
what you are doing. Using Remote Assistance may be more useful.

Hope that helps
