Remote Desktop

[bfairchild]

Has anyone tried the Remote Desktop feature in WinXP Pro? Does it give you complete access to applications as well as files? I would like to run some of my office applications on my work desktop from home PC without actually installing the apps at home if possible. I already have the ability to get directly to my work desktop from home.

Yes, it's basically like pcAnywhere or Terminal server in that you connect to your PC and control the desktop as if you were logged on locally.
