On my home network I have 1 server(with MS Small Business Server 2003), 3
desktop PCs (2 with XP Pro and 1 with ME) and a Laptop (with 98). They are
all connected with ethernet cards. I have enabled remote desktop on one of
the XP machines and the server. However i cannot find the place to start or
login into either of these computers. I tried looking through the community
help pages but got nothing helpful. Any information would be helpful.

On WinXP - start, run, type mstsc <enter>
For ME, you need the Remote Desktop Client - avail. for free download from
MS downloads. Can't hurt to install it on the XP machines, either.

On XP
Open the Start Menu -- Programs -- Accessories -- Communications --
Remote Desktop Connection.

or

Open Start menu -- Run and type mstsc and click OK
