Remote Desktop Connection
I am not sure if this has been asked already (if it has please direct me to
the correct thread). Is there a way to connect to a remote server that runs Server 03 from a Vista machine? The school I teach in recently setup a new secure server for a small group of teachers to access a specialized program. This was done so we could work on paperwork from home as opposed to sitting at school for hundreds of hours completing this important (and legal) paperwork. The only problem I have had is accessing the server from my home PC (runs Vista SP1). As far as I know my firewall/security software (Norton Internet Security 08) is not blocking the remote connection. The server does have tsweb installed. Any help would be appreciated...thanks.

Remote Desktop Connection
Yes, Vista should be able to access server 2003 using RDC. Can you telnet
port 80? -- Bob Lin, MS-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "Scott" wrote in message ...

Scott, making an outbound connection usually doesn’t create any problems for
your local machine. Based on the information you have provided, you should be able to connect in a couple of ways. Via Internet Explorer and using the IP address the school provided to you: http://ip_address/tsweb/ It should look something like this: http://192.168.1.100/tsweb/ Be sure to replace the number I inserted with the address the school provided to you. You can also connect using Remote Desktop using the IP address the school provided along with your username/password.
