I have 2 computers (Suppose Computer "A" and Computer "B") at home, both have
Windows Pro and both have Broad Band Connection thru the same router(Lynksys).
When I use RDC to connect ...
Case-1
Compter "A" is client/remote and Computer "B" is host.....It works well
Case-2
Computer "B" is client/remote and Computer "A" is host.....It does not works
(while the set up is the same)

I would apperciate if some one can help me to get it it know that why is it
not working in case-2, Is there any changes required in set ups before
changing the status (remote/client and host) of computers?
Thanks
