RDP "vista to xpsp2"
Got a new latptop from Dell and I am trying to remote from my home (laptop
running Vista home premium) to my computer at work running xp sp2. I am connecting to my work vpn and then launching RDP to connect. Vista and XP machine are both running RDP 6.0. Host computer is set to allow remote connections and users are defined. I have set Vista to connect even in authenication fails. I have the setting set not to us a TS server. I can remote in with an XP SP2 machine just fine, just not with vista. I do not have the error message handy that I got last night. I will capture that tonight and post in the thread. Has anyone heard or experienced problems going from vista to xp?

RDP "vista to xpsp2"
I know some people connected from vista laptop to xp pro sp2. I only
installed the optional RDP component in xp pc from windows update to allow that to happen. Sorry, don't remember the exact name of the component. "jwingo" wrote in message ...

No, I do it all the time. Just to make sure can you ping the XP SP2 machine through the VPN tunnel from the Vista laptop once you connect? Can you connect to the XP SP2 machine from the Vista laptop while the laptop is connected directly (wired or wireless) to the work LAN?

RDP "vista to xpsp2"
I can not ping the xp box. I had not tried to remote from the xp to vista
since it is home premium version and does not support host rdp sessions. The error message is: "The computer can not connect to remote computer".

The error message is: "The computer can not connect to remote computer". Well, if you can't ping the machine through the VPN tunnel you will never be able to connect with Remote Desktop. Can you connect to the XP SP2 machine with Remote Desktop from the Vista laptop if the laptop is connected directly to the work LAN? -- Al Jarvi (MS-MVP Windows Networking) Please post *ALL* questions and replies to the news group for the mutual benefit of all of us...
