I am running W2K Professional SP4 on my desktop workstation. I want to run
the Remote Desktop server so that my laptop (running the same operating
system)
can access it remotely. I could not find an appropriate download page. Can
someone send me a URL please?

Thanks.

It's not possible to use Win2K Pro as a Remote Desktop Host, because this OS
does not include the Terminal Server Service. You options are to upgrade to
XP Pro or Vista, or use VNC or GoToMyPC.
