I have two XP Pro (SP2) computers, on the same LAN (no intervening router or
firewall), and am trying to do remote desktop from PC-A to PC-B, and it's
failing. When I try, I get the generic "Client could not connect... might
not be enabled... might be too busy... ask administrator" message.
Unfortunately, I'm the administrator. Here's what I've checked so far:
- "allow users to connect remotely" is checked on PC-B
- I've disabled and reenabled it, and rebooted
- I've attempted to connect via NetBIOS name, FQDN, and IP address.
- I've looked at services running on both PCs (PC-A is able to accept RDP
with no prob) and they look identical. But everything marked "automatic
start" is running.
- Windows firewall is off.

I'm stumped. What should I look at next?
