I tired your registry settings on both machines that were involved in the
connection and still could not get through. I compared the registry settings
from a W2K3 Server Box and found that this was enabled on the server. By
default this is set to deny on XP SP2. Once set to 0 I was able to connect
again to manage the Session and remote control remotely from any W2K3 SP1
adminpak capable machine.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server
fDenyTSConnections
REG_DWORD
Value - 0
