I am trying to use Netmeeting remote desktop sharing to
access a Windows XP Home computer on my home network from
another Windows XP Home computer on my home network (all
inside a firewall). When I call the computer I get a log
on screen asking for user name, password, and domain.
Since I have no domain, I enter username and password but
I cannot log on. The secure incoming and outgoing calls
boxes are checked in the Options menu on both computers.
I have successfully connected to a Windows 2000 computer
at another location outside of my network using the same
method. Is there something about Windows XP Home that
will not allow remote desktop access?

Any error messages when you try this? What exactly are the symptoms? Are you calling the correct IP?
Do you have the target NetMeeting setup to automatically accept calls?
