Vista and Remote Desktop Connections

Hi Tom.
How do you mean 'all versions of vista support remote desktop connection' if
one wants to connect from vista to xp. I have vista home premium on my laptop
and I don't have remote desktop connection. I can't find anywhere I can
download it. Do you know how I can get it onto my vista home premium?

Vista Business Edition has it, but does not have any of the nice media
stuff.

If you want to do media stuff AND have remote desktop, you need
Ultimate.

Hello Rock,

Thanks for the link but the only reference to remote desktop connection was
"Desktop deployment tools for managed networks" therefore one can only
assume 'remote desktop connection is part of this statement?' In that case
then only the higher end Vista OS has this network application?

Thanks,

Hello Elmtailye,

I figure so much and thanks for the response. I was hoping to get off cheap
with the Home Edition.

Have a wonderful evening!

Are you wanting to connect remotely to Vista or make remote connections from
Vista? If the latter, then all versions of Vista support that. If the
former, then you need Business, Ultimate or Enterprise.

Hello Tom,

Yes, I want to connect from my home (VPN) to my office PC which is running
XP and on a intranet.

Thanks,

If you can't find it on the start menu (should be under Accessories on the
start menu) just enter mstsc.exe in the search box on the start menu.
