Hi ~ FYI ~ i have asked this question already in the network section but no one wanted to give me an answer & i've looked this question up everywhere, but no answer. PLEASE HELP. okay...i am positive i've got remote desktop setup correctly on both xp pro machines, but whenever I try to use the remote desktop connection to connect to another computer on my fully-functional LAN, it says this "the mshome domain/workgroup does not contain any terminal servers". Whats up? any help would be appreaciated.

I have exactly the same problem as s.c.
I have tried browsing, typing the name of the other compters. Both machines are enabled as per the Win Xp pro help instructions. I cannot give an I.p. address beacsue the i.p. addressesare assigned dynamically.

I too would appreciate some help on this.
