Is there a way to use the Remote Assistance feature of XP
PRO, theough a NIC? I am usesing a home network and the
remote feature would be great if it would work across a
NIC instead of through the internet, I am a little behind
times and have a single dial up connection co i can
connect both computers.
 
Sure... You can send a request for RA via the file invitation method. It works very well. You can
also set RA up so the Expert can initiate the help function (not to be confused with the RA "Offer"
function in a domain environment). Look at these pages for more help with RA...
