Remote Connection

[bbEmoney]

I recieve this error when trying to connect to a computer that is also running WinXp Pro sp2.

"The (name) domain/workgroup goes not contain any Terminal Servers."

Please help.

Don't understand what your doing a bit, but I will toss out my standard two bits.

If everybody isn't running XP sp2 you may need to run around with a disc that has the network installer wizard that is on the XP install CD.

Everybody needs to have the same workgroup name.

Sorry end of memory reached.

You need to input the name directly into the obx, be in the DNS name or the ip address.

The 'search for ' feature onyl works with terminal servers

Elaborate more as to what is going on.

On the remote machine, is the check box checked on the Remote Desktop area (right click My Computer->Properties->Remote)?

Do you have any other firewall software running on the machine besides the default Microsoft Firewall?

Is there a hardware firewall that might be blocking port 3389 (remote desktop)?

Is this over a LAN or WAN? Local or remote?

Give us some more information about the machine you are connecting from (any software firewalls on that besides MS?). The more info, the better....
