My question is, is possible to access a remote computer with windows XP Home edition, from other computer with windows XP Pro using the wmi service and Vice Versa (to access a computer with win xp from other with Home edition)???

Try [1] enable Guest account, and [2] put Guest account be a member of Administrators group (I have heard roar already). That makes your m/c _very_ unsecured. Then it should begin to be able to be accessed as a target computer. To access other remote computers from xp home, it is still not allowed. That's just my understanding. Maybe some others have hand-on experience.
