I have xp pro on my laptop and xp home on my pc. Anyway
I can get full remote desktop on both machines ( client
and host ). So far I can only get full remote over the
laptop.
 
Not using Remote Desktop since RD only works in host mode on a XP Pro platform, as you have
discovered. One option is VNC. Get UltraVNC (server and client) from...

http://ultravnc.sourceforge.net/

It also includes an encryption plug-in if you want to use it over the public internet. VNC does not
natively encrypt the data stream so this is a potential security issue over the public internet.

Otherwise you can run VNC though a VPN tunnel to work around the encryption issue.
