You can use VNC with Linux too.  You can then access your home computer from both WinXP and Linux systems.  Of course, you have to install the software on both your home computer and the computer your accessing from as well.

You can setup your linux machine as a samba server. your samba server can even work as a domain controller for your network which can also contain windows clients. You can also use just ssh,telnet or ftp(your linux server should be ssh,telnet or ftp server respectively). For ssh you need to install putty.\nYou can get putty from here http://www.atlantawebhost.com/putty/\nWinscp is also an option. Just figure out one according to your need.

If both PC's are on the network, just create a folder on your PC, place the file(s) in there and share the folder (Right-click on the folder and select Sharing and Security) Give yourself permission and you'll be able to access the folder and edit the file from both locations.

goto the folder in the command prompt and type "dir" and enter. or you can send the results to a file by typing "dir > c:&#92;filename.txt"\n\non the command prompt goto\nC:&#92;Documents and Settings&#92;USER_NAME&#92;Local Settings&#92;Temporary Internet Files\n\nby typing \n\ncd C:&#92;"Documents and Settings"&#92;nbko65v&#92;"Local Settings"&#92;"Temporary Internet Files"\n\nand then\n\ndir > c:&#92;filename.txt\n\n\nthen open the filename.txt file.

Two possibilities come to mind:  IPv6 or SSL tunnel.  I have no direct experience with either, however.\n\nAccording to the speaker at a Linux talk on IPv6 I ttended a year+ ago, quite a few firewalls fail to do anything with (or even recognize) IPv6 packets.  You might find that you can poke right through without hindrance.\n\nA more "traditional" approach is an SSL tunnel/gateway, which is roughly what the other respondent suggested.  You set up a special server on  your home machine or some other external box to which you have access, and it acts as a proxy and connects your tunneled packet stream to the host and port of your choosing.  One example I saw in 2002 or so was called Bouncer; it was available only as binaries, but Linux, Win32 and Solaris versions were available.  Unfortunately the site no longer exists, but you can read up on it at the Internet Archive links below, and a search for the specific filenames may still turn up hits out there somewhere.

XP Home does not allow remote desktop - that's one of the features of the more expensive versions of windows.\n\nIf you just want to be able to remotely access your files, you can install CopSSH or OpenSSH on the machine and then access the machine using any SSH or FTP client.

Download the free linux distro Slax. The newest version is 5.18 \nand you can download it from this site: http://www.slax.org/download.php\n\nits free and all you have to do is burn it to a cd as an image with a program like Nero and then restart your computer with the cd in the cd drive. Your computer will boot into linux and when everything is finished loading use the user name "root" and the password "toor" without quotes. After that the slax desktop should appear and then you can click on Konqueror which will be on the bottom left and you will see all the drives on your computer. You can copy files from NTFS drives with slax but you cant edit them.

What you want to do is make sure that you have an isp service with a constant or static IP address to host a server. These are the steps you need:\n\n1) Identify your IP address and find out if it's static\n2) setup your server and the folder with the pictures\n3) on your website type the html code or which ever code you use such that it links your pictures to the site, example: http://youripaddress/imagefolder/image.jpg\n\nBelow are some servers you can install on a windows based computer. If you use Linux you might have to install an extra module to use it as a server.

One way would be to use vmware.  You could download a free vmware player and a virtual machine image in the flaver that you want.  Or there is a free vmware server product in the same place.  Linux can be added to a system non destructively but would require that you reboot into linux and reboot back to windows when you are done.  A live cd is also an option but has the same drawbacks as installing in your particular case.
