RDP from XP to Vista Ultimate

Any type of anti-virus/worm/Trojan software running on the Vista
machine? Are you running OneCare Live?

I presume when testing over the local LAN your calling using the private
static LAN IP of the Vista RDC host machine. Correct?

What anti-virus/worm/Trojan software are you running? In the past there
have been reports of NAV worm protection blocking RDC incoming requests.
You may need to uninstall as a test. There have also been reports of a
Cisco VPN client software blocking RDC requests.

The pc has Norton Internet Security and it has a Cisco VPN client. I have
disabled both and still get no response from the system.

After the upgrade from Home Premium to Ultimate, the Cisco VPN complained
about a driver issue when trying to connect and the software had to be
reinstalled. Is something similar possible with rdp? Is it possible the
facility didn't get enabled probperly via the upgrade?
