OK So I have DSL at home & Internet access to my computer at work. I am running XP Pro at work XP Home at home I can get to my work computer from Home But not the reverse. I would like to setup remote desktop on my home computer but I cant see to find it anyplace to setup. I have tried useing pc anywhere but with the IP's I cant connect either. I have even gone to the nuvox.net site to verify I am useing the correct IP. I dont beleive my home computer has any ports closed or anything like this but I do not know how to check this nor if somethign is closed how can I open it. Any assistance & guidence would be appreciated! Thanks.!
