thx shenan

i have reboot my machine at home,
and i have the latest remote desktop client installed at
work.

i tried the command line thingy but it still didn't work.

it has a windows popup saying...

[remote desktop disconnected]
'the remote connection has timed out. please try
connecting to the remote computer again.'

it seems that it has made the outgoing connection,
but cannot get the incoming one. (correct me if i am
wrong.)
