Firstly response:
I have tried with the xp provided firewall on and off on
both pc's. when I had it on, I selected an exception for
remote desktop to let it through, but no luck either way
Secondly response:
both machines are behind the router I believe. I have to
go through the router to get to the internet from
either. But I have to go thru the router to get from 1
machine to the other. Not sure if that is what you meant
below??
Do not believe I have changed the listening port on the
pc. should I see listening on port 80, 3389 if I do a
netstat -a in console window ?
Lastly response:
I have port forwarding set in router to go to the ip of
the desktop (192.168.0.2)
I am not offsite. I am trying to use my LAN to go from
laptop to desktop and run desktop from another room in
house. I tried both the desktop pc name and ip address
(above). I do not have a static public ip address
The error msg is as follows:
The client could not connect to the remote computer
Remote connections might not be enabled or the computer
might be too busy to accept new connections
It is also possible that network problems are preventing
your connection
Please try connecting again later. If the problem
continues, contact your administrator
Unfortunately that is me and I don't know how to fix !
Thanks
Bob
