I needed to install an updated RDP client. I think this is a link to do that: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2592687 This may not be your situation, since you're connecting Win7 to Win7. Unless the remote client has updated their system. I'd suspect firewalls (possibly including those built into routers) that might be blocking the RDP protocol. You need to explicitly open the port (is it 3389?) on the firewall and forward it to the target machine, in some routers, especially if you're using NAT. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/CACW6n4s2Pw3-=xcn9m7z49gsxydbnu2j6_ggybrl2mibhx-...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
