Accessing Remote Desktop through web page

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

Is it possible to generate a web based client formy remote desktop? So no
matter what computer I used I could type in the URL of my computer's web page
and access my home computer? I seem to recall using a "tsclient" when
Citrix was in charge. Is is possible to duplicate this with Windows XP?
