The link you have specified is related to Windows 2000 Terminal Services. You are trying to connect to an XP machine and display what is on your own screen so the link above does not apply to your situation. You would need to use something like teamviewer which is free to use. It may also require user interaction on the connecting PC to show your desktop.

Teamviewer - http://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx

ok.  I thought about teamviewer as I was typing the post
Yeah from my experience there are a lot of paid products that have features like you are looking for but teamviewer is free and will do exactly what you require.
