I am trying to connect a Wondows XP to my Windows Vista machine using
RDC.

I have set up the RDC user on the Vista machine.

I get an error message the logon method is not correct. The exact
error message:

"You cannot log on because the logon method you are using is not
allowed on this computer"

How do I connect to a Vista machine fronm an XP machine?

thanks
 
Hello,

Please make sure that in Advanced System Properties under the Remote tab you
have set the Remote Desktop selection to "Allow connections from computers
running ANY VERSION of remote desktop"
 
Are you using the Pre-RC1 build? It looks like this build has problems
connecting to Windows XP machines via remote desktop.
 
Does this include connecting from an xp machine to my vista pre-rc1?

I get an error message saying something like service not available or
something like that.
 
duh,

Never mind, I didn't realize that trend micro had a firewall component. I
disabled it and now works like a charm.
