I am migrating my client machine from W2K Pro to XP Pro. I previously used
terminal services client on W2K Pro to access a W2K server for administrative
purposes. I believe the client was installed from the W2K server software.
How do I set up a similar client with XP Pro?

warning-if what I recall is accurate, you can log in locally and remote with
w2k

This is not legitimately possible under xppro
so you will lose functionality
