Once you’ve set up XP/VS Server to allow remote access for multiple users you will need the IP address or hostname of your server.

1. Right-click on the Windows icon and select “Run”.

You’ll see a range of information appear, but for now just note down the IPv4 Address or hostname of your XP/VS Server.

To connect to XP/VS Server simply use any modern Remote Desktop app (recommended) or the default RDP client from Microsoft  (Start -> Run -> mstsc.exe).

Type the IP address or hostname of XP/VS Server, your username and click “Connect”.
