I would like to approach my Windows 2000 server with my Windows XP home
computer though remote desktop.

Does anybody know how to activate this on my Windows 2000 server ?

Presumaly you need to purchase licenses for Terminal Services in the Windows
2000 Server.

You can enable remote administration on that machine without additional
licensing. This will allow the administrator remote access via RDP.
