Hi,

If I want to use "Computer Management" to manage a remote computer, what services have to be installed and started, and what firewall ports have to be opened?

Thanks,

im guessing your talking about remote desktop *terminal* the computer you wish to remotely manage must have windows xp pro sp2 . right click on my computer then go to properties - remote - click allow users to connect remotely to this computer, the user u want to use must have a password. now open tcp 3389 on the firewall and forward it to the pc you want to manage.

It is not RDP. It is the snap-in to check shares, local users, event logs, and services, etc.

I know it needs "file and printer sharing", just wondering anything else I could miss. For example, the disk management will need something open like "rdmanger?", etc.

If there is a complete document to get all the information, it will be great.
