Hi all

Today I have reinstalled our Domain server due to fatal problems. Same
softeware and disks as always used. Now I cannot access the server by
remote desktop. I have never had a problem in the past.

Installed on the server.
Windows 2003
Active Directory
Exchange 2003
SQL 2005

Yes we have a do everything server and only the one, normally very
reliable.

What I have tried.
1. Activated RDP in the Remote tab of System Prpoerties. No extra user
Selected as I always connect as Administrator.

2. Tried to connect from both XP and Vista stations, both worked in
the past.

3. Googled like crazy for solutions, nothing seems to work.

What actually happens.
When I try to connect, the server gives a little wirl on the hard disk
as if it is going to execute the command. The Remote client then just
returns to the default status and the connect button is alive again.
No remote screen actually appears.

The problem with the situation is that normally I administer the
server from a distance, if I cannot correct this I will need to think
about a complete reinstall just to cure this problem, harsh and
drastic but might be the quickest.

Any ideas on this problem would be welcomed.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for all the work guys but I think I will be going down the
reload road before I get to much back on the server.
