Remote Desktop with Vista Home Premium 64?

I have a machine with XP Pro sp2 on it. And my main machine is Vista Home
Premium 64. I launch Windows Remote Desktop on my XP machine and want to
connect to my Vista machine but it is not working. I can't find the Vista
machine. I searching for how-to's and have read that Remote Desktop is not
part of Vista Home Premium. Is that true?

The Home versions do not have the RD server portion, only the client.
You can go from VHP to XPPro, but not from XPPro to VHP.
