Re: RDP Connection generates Event Viewer Entry

According to Microsoft, XP SP2 moves the Terminal Services service to the DCOMlaunch service in Svchost.exe. This is to help reduce the restart requirements in Windows XP SP2 when you update Windows and we can't stop DCOMlaunch service.
You may want to go back to the link I post before to double check the TS configuration.

It appears that I was premature. the second time I attempted to connect I
was refused and when I checked the DcomLaunch process has changed to match
the TS listening port

Yes, that could be the problem. For a test, disable DcomLaunch or change
the TS port. Please post back with the result.
