what are you trying to do? connect to a shared folder?
if so try this in a dos box
net use * \\ip number\shared folder /user:administrator password
 
if the pc's are connected to the internet using a router you will
have to enable a NAT (network address translation) rule allowing it
but be wary...i believe everything will be sent in plain text which is a security risk

Assuming you have Windows XP Professional, you can enable remote desktop, and open/forward port 80/3389 (I think...) to the machine that you wish to connect remotely to.
 
On the remote side, you will need the Remote Desktop Client, which is built into Windows XP Professional and Windows Server 2003, or if you have older versions of Windows, you can download the client free from the Microsoft web site.
 
Alternatively, if you do not have Windows XP Professional, or cannot install a viewer/client to connect remotely, you could look at a VNC-based solution.
