More info?)
Hello,
Thanks for your cooperation. I have received the report and I am sorry that
I cannot find any clue in it for now.
Based on your description, "We do have one machine (XP SP2) that can
connect. But mine and another
| cannot. We connect to VPN over WAN. Connecting with RD over the LAN from
| all machines is OK."
Can I assume that all machine including the two machines(yours and another)
can connect the target machine with RD over LAN? However, only these two
probmatic machines cannot connect with RD through VPN over WAN to the
target machine.
Based on my research, I would like to provide some information for your
reference:
1. When connecting through VPN, please ensure you can ping the target
machine success.
2. Pleaes ensure the user account in the member of Remote Desktop group of
the target machine.
if you can directly connect to the destination computer through regular
Terminal Service client
Remote Desktop Connection Software Download
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/tools/rdclientdl.mspx
3. To connect with RD by IP address of target machine, what is the result?
Hope the information helps. If there is anything that is unclear, please
feel free to let me know.
Thanks & Regards,
Jason Tan

| remote computer again."
