Not long ago, on a LAN not far away... I had successful XPpro -->XPpro
remote desktop connection... ( home --> office )
The two locations are remote to one another, connected via the Internet.
Both locations are small LANs supported by Linksys routers and high speed
Internet connection.
My first change was to install a new Vista Ultimate box at home. With
tremendous ease and success I had a successful Vista Ultimate ---> XPpro
connection.... Hooray for our side!
My next change was to install a new Vista Ultimate box at the office. This
is where my plans fell the way-side.
Vista Ultimate ----X----> Vista Ultimate. I enabled remote desktop at the
office using the second radio button option.- "Allow connections from
computers running any version of Remote Desktop." I changed the port
forwarding on the office router to the Vista Ultimate box and attempted to
connect from home. When I could not connect, the first thing I tried was to
turn off the Vista firewall on the office computer. No luck. I am told by
Vista that my credentials are bad. I am trying to log into the office box
using my log in name and password that is an admin account at the office. I
am at a total loss as to what could possibly be wrong. Any suggestions would
be tremendously appreciated.
