Reply: (edit)Antero, TS is installed by default. You don't need to install it. You also don't need to install TS licensing. Take it off. You need to enable the Remote Desktop to connect to it. Right click on My Computer, select the Remote Tab, check the box for Allow USers To Connect Remotely... Good luck.

Reply: (edit)Why are you using WINS, and do you have a domain? I assume you don't have a domain based on your DNS information in your IP config. Have you tried to connect to the remote machine via IP address instead of name? If so, you have a DSN or name resolution problem.

Reply: (edit)It should work locally on the server using that IP. It should work remotely using that IP. All that is needed is the remote destop being enabled and the user being part of remote desktop users.

Reply: (edit)you might not have an updated version of rdp client? Use the CD or net to get newest version for your remote system. Also see about tsweb and be sure your know what ports have to be open for rdp.

Reply: (edit)That was more if you had a router or firewall installed. Since you can access it from another 2003 we can suspect that it really works at the server. I was unsure of your topology, you might have another lan device in the way of the client. I used xp home to access my 2003 server. It took a while too. I know I did something that finally fixed it. I think I made it a trusted computer or something. Otherwise the XP home computer just wouldn't see the shares or ftp or rdp on the server even though the server could access the shares on the xp home. Seem like some permission or acl ,, darn, I can't remember what I read that led me to getting it fixed.
