Les, I'm one step ahead of you...already tried and can successfully connect
to the client workstation in question. I can even connect to it from home as
well...I do not receive the error message at all when I click on "Connect to
Desktop Remotely". This particular user does...the list on workstations
doesn't even pop up, it goes straight into the error screeen.
Could it be an ActiveX setting? I know he has Norton Internet Security and
I've told him to disable that and try to connect as well.

Thanks,

Ken
