You can access Win2k Servers provided they have Terminal Services enabled.
Terminal Services is not available in Win2k Pro. The client software of
course will run on anything from Win9x up.
As far as I know the only Windows versions that can be accessed by RDP
clients are XP Pro, NT 4.0 Terminal Services Edition, Win2k Server, and
Windows Server 2003. Can't imagine how you are accessing the Pro machines
without third party software.
