RDP + Network issue...
Okay, I did do a search in this forum in regard to Remote Desktop and known issues, but was unable to find any information that deals with my specific issue.
I'll try to keep this short and clear.
Running a domain with Active Directory. No WINS server set up though.
Running Windows 2000 (with SP4) and Windows XP (SP2) (firewall off) on the network.
Here's my issue:
I cannot connect to any of my Windows XP-based boxes using RDP. They all have Remote Assistance/Connection enabled and have users defined that should be able to connect. However, when I try to connect, I get the old "cannot connect to remote computer; make sure remote connection is enabled...blah blah blah".
I can ping these XP machines with any computer on the network (using their name, IP, etc.). I cannot connect to them through Network Neighborhood or an IE window either. But, from any XP machine, I can do all of that, but I am able to connect to and browse Windows 2000-based boxes, which leads me to believe this is an XP issue (basically, I can out-going connectivity from all of my XP boxes, but no in-going connectivity).
I can connect to a 2000-based computer with the XP-based machines, and that computer will then be able to see/contact/connect to the XP-based machine (with RDP, IE, and any other way I choose to connect). But I cannot connect 2000 to XP or XP to XP-based.
I'm kinda stumped.
Any ideas?!
Thanks...
