Remote Desktop Connection Fails with Vista Business
I have two laptops running on the workgroup both wireless and using
the same router. Laptop 1 - XP Pro SP2 Laptop 2 - Vista Business Computer I want to access via RDC (Computer Name on RDC Screen) = CompName.Domain XP Pro connects and brings up RDC terminal to machine to login. Entering in the login and password logs into the machine. Vista Business asks for credentials when logging into Domain: CompName.Domain. No RDC Terminal comes up. The login and password entered gives an error message that "This computer can't connect to the remote comuter". Any ideas?

Remote Desktop Connection Fails with Vista Business
Is Remote Desktop (RDC) enabled on Laptop 2?
Are you using the correct IP address to call Laptop2? Is NLA disabled on Laptop 2 when you try to connect from an XP client?

Remote Desktop Connection Fails with Vista Business
Laptop1 (XP Pro) and Laptop2 (Vista Business) do not connect to each
other. They each are used separately to connect to CompName.Domain. So CompName.Domain accepts the RDC connection from Laptop 1. Laptop 2 does not find the domain. Exact message = "This computer can't connect to the remote computer. Remote Desktop cannot find the remote computer. Type the computer name or IP address again..." I don't know what NLA is.

Remote Desktop Connection Fails with Vista Business
Can you ping CompName.Domain from Laptop2?
Is the target PC in a domain or in a workgroup? NLA = Network Level Authentication. If the target PC, ie. CompName.Domain, is not running Windows 2008 Server or Vista Ultimate/Business then make sure Laptop2 is configured like this. http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.or...ntSettings.jpg If you suspect an authentication issue see this FAQ for possible help... http://blogs.msdn.com/ts/archive/200...ation-faq.aspx -- Al Jarvi (MS-MVP Windows - Desktop User Experience) Please post *ALL* questions and replies to the news group for the mutual benefit of all of us...

Remote Desktop Connection Fails with Vista Business
Excellent point.
Laptop1 CAN ping TargetPC Laptop2 CAN NOT pint TargetPC Laptop2 = Vista Business Both machines are running the same version of Norton 360. Both machines are connected wirelessly to the same wireless network. I obviously have a security setting in Vista that I am unaware of. Thoughts?
