Hi Guys,
I'm trying to use a remote desktop connection from a laptop running Vista Business to a desktop running XP home edition SP3 on a local network. I am able to ping either from either one. and am able to use the remote desktop connection from the XP PC to the Vista, however i cannot go the other way. It asks me for credentials instantly after clicking connect and i have tried putting in the user and password and alternatively the PC name\user then p/w. and with either option it will try to connect for around 15 secs before bringing up an error message saying "This computer can't connect to the remote computer.". Also i might add i have enabled the remote desktop connection on either computer and also enabled a password on each. There must be something I'm missing???
