I normally access a Windows 2000 machine (server) through
netmeeting from another Win 2000 box (client).

How can I access a Win 2000 server from a Windows XP
client? I know that:
-Windows XP has the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC)
(server and client) preinstalled.
-Windows 2000 has Netmeeting preinstalled (server and
client).

Is there a Netmeeting client for Windows XP or a RDC
server for Win 2000 or any way to do what I'm trying?

Thanks for advice. Marcos.

Win XP already comes with Netmeeting and RD

Also Windows 2000 Server can act as a Remote Desktop server (it is
called Terminal Services - in Remote Administration mode)... You
install this via Add/Remove Windows Components...
