Does Windows Vista Accept Incoming Connections?

Hi,
In order to connect to a pc for remote connection and administration with
Windows XP, I would use "Create New Connection" Wizard of Network
Connections Panel. But I've not found nothing like that in Windows Vista. It
seems that the only way of remote connection to a pc with Vista OS, is a
remote connection through Internet. But it is so nonlogical for an operating
system like Vista to have only one way of (Internet)/(Local Area) Connection
for Remote Administration.
So is there any way to make Vista Answer the phone like XP OS by Accepting
Incoming Connections?

Thanks,
Roohollah Shafei,

Did you enter *dial-up networking* in Vista's Help? Did you use Google and
entered *Vista dial-up networking*?

Windows Vista Home Basic and Premium can't be controlled remotely by Remote
Desktop. You can remote to another computer from those versions of Vista,
but they can't be remoted to using Remote Desktop.

Try some alternatives like Live Messenger, logmein.com, realvnc, or PC
Anywhere.

The RasaGostar Javan Engineering Company doesn't have an IT group?

Lang,

Maybe they want to monitor the IT group . You know, those scrawny suspicious-looking, bandwidth-using, pale complexion folk. I'm telling you, the IT guys are using up all the bandwidth pirating videos! If only we have a remote desktop connection to catch them
