Basically when tou are operating another computer through your pc which is far away from you. When you do that you have to establish a connection that connection is called to be Remote desktop connection.
Remote Setup:
Remote Desktop is disabled by default,
so the first step is to activate it on the system youwant to control. From the Start menu, right-click Computer, then click Properties and next click Remote Settings.
You must change the Remote Desktop setting from "Don't Allow Connections to this Computer" to one of the "allow" options. Which ones you choose will depend on what kind of system you'll be using to connect to this one. If you know you'll always be using another Vista computer to access it, choose the latter (more secure) option. However, if you think you will need to use an XP system, choose the former (less secure) option.
You must makethis choice in advance because Vista's version of Remote Desktop uses an enhanced security method called Network Level Authentication that's not found in Windows XP. If your system is configured to automatically go into standby or sleep mode, you'll get a warning reminding you to disable that, lest your system be unable to respond.
Administrator accounts automatically get access through Remote Desktop, but if you want to give remote access to a non-administrator, you must first add the account.
You can't pick from a list of existing accounts, But after you enter one, click the Check Names button; if the account you entered becomes underlined, it's a valid account. After you're finished, close out of all open dialog boxes. Be sure to note the IP address of this system because you'll need it to make the connection.
Create a Connection:
Now it's time to try remotely connecting to your system, but before using Remote Desktop across the Internet, it's best to test it from another computer on your network. Some extra steps must also be taken to make it work across the Net, which we'll get to in a bit.
Head over to another system and launch the Remote Desktop Connection software from the Start menu. You'll find it under All Programs, Accessories. To get to it more quickly, you can also type "remote desktop connection" or "mstsc" into the Start Search box.
Enter the IP address of the computer on which you configured Remote Desktop, then click Connect. A dialog box will prompt you for a valid username and password. A moment or two after you enter them you should be looking at your remote system's desktop.
From this point you can interact with your far-flung machine more or less as you would if you were using it directly. Bear in mind that you will not want to try things like playing games or streaming audio or video because the connection's not really fast enough for that.
Remote Desktop defaults to a full-screen view, but you can change that to a window or minimize it with the controls on the right side of the yellow bar at the top of the screen. Clicking the pin button on the left side of the bar will auto-hide it; in this mode, just move the mouse cursor to the top edge of the screen to summon it back.
When you're done using Remote Desktop, click the close button and confirm with OK. That ends your remote session, but your remote system remains logged in and running.
Customize:
Before we get into how to configure Remote Desktop for Internet access, let's look at a few of the configurable settings available via the Options button. From the General tab, you can pre-enter the IP address and user name you want to use so they'll always appear when you launch Remote Desktop Connection. From the Programs tab, you can select an application to automatically run when you connect, although you'll have to know the full path to it.
Their are many softwares in the market which may help you to establish a remote connection such as
teamviewer and anyplace control etc.
Hope you will like to do so...............
