I am an extreme noob at all this raw stuff, I'm used to fancy icons thatwhen clicked automatically configure things for you :/ Can some one post a walkthrough of how to get this working? I know NOTHING! Is there a program that I need on my computer in order for this to work? Thanks for any help.

on n900 you need install rdesktop. On local wifi, in rdesktop client type ip of your pc, name, pass of user account on your pc,, and thats all.
If you need connect to your pc accross internet, you need forward rdp port (tcp 3389) on your router.

So I've done everything step by step and all I'm getting is "unable to connect". In the command "ipconfig", which is the correct one to use? I tried them all but I'm just curious as to which one is the right one. What could I be missing? arrgh!

Try ping that ip from your n900, and check firewall on your pc if is rdp allowed.

[EDIT] Do I have to be logged in as the Administrator for this to work?

I've successfully connected to a friend's XP system but when I came back to my own windows 7 laptop, I realized that the "remote desktop" option is missing from the window.
In countless diagrams online and in the rDesktop help PDF file, it shows a checked box by a remote desktop option in the white area under the remote assistance box. Anyone have a clue where that box is or why it's missing?

A physical mouse would be great for this set up

nokiaboy97 Windows 7 only bundles RDC with Professional, Business and Ultimate versions. I would recommend you untick Remote Assistance while you don't need it too, but maybe I'm just paranoid!
