Thething08,

The best way to connect to a remote computer (domain or otherwise) is via Remote Desktop or some other remote control software such as PC Anywhere. There are also good web-based remote control programs:

If you're running a Windows Domain server at your office, you could set up a PPTP RAS VPN server on your server - allowing you to securely connect to your office LAN from home via the Internet. From there, you can use Windows Remote Desktop or Terminal Services features to access any PC on your office network provided the security is configured to permit you to do so.
