RE: Remote Desktop not working after Windows Server 2003 SP1 install

Check to see if you can read the event log from another computer, and if that
doesn't work, export the log to file, then clear the log and see if it starts
logging events that you can read.

Thanks for the 411 on the bug you found. I'll let you know if I have the
same problem.
