Re: 3389 problems

What VPN software?

Is the VPN software running on the PC when you try to connect from another
PC using RDP?

Have you tried uninstalling the VPN software and test again?

The PC I am trying to remote connect to IS NOT behind any kind of router
or
firewall. As I mentioned, I seem to recall this starting after installing
VPN software, which I use to connect to my clients networks.

If TCP Port 3389 is filtered when checked from a remote location then you
more than likely have a firewall blocking the port. Is the PC your trying

reach behind a firewall or router? If so you need to forward/open TCP
Port
3389 through the firewall/router to the PCs private LAN IP.

I have had a problem remotely connecting to my XP Prof box for some
time.
I'm not sure exactly when it started. It may have been after
installing
some
VPN software. Anyway, when I run port query to port 127.0.0.1, the
result
is
listening. When I run it from a remote PC, it is filtered.

I've lloked through the article here:
http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.org/RemoteDesktop/RemoteDesktopSetupandTroubleshooting.html

But I do not see a solution. Is there a way to re-install that
service?

Tanks
