Win 2000 Server to WIN XP desktop remote connections problems

Posted: 12-28-2003, 04:53 AM
I have been connecting from a Win 200 Professional desktop
machine to a Win XP Professional using the remote desktop
feature. I have been using the remote desktop connection
client I downloaded from MS. However, when I try to
connect to same XP computer from a WIN 2000 Server using
the same remote connection client, I get a message which
reads as follows:

"The client could not connect to the remote computer.
Remote connections may not be enabled........"

I am on the same domain. I am logged under the same user
ID and I ensure that the other remote desktop connection
is ended before I attempt to establish a connection from
the Win 200 Server machine. I have tried this from two
different Win 2000 Server machines and I get the same
result.

I will really appreciate your help.

Thx . I found the solution. It was a firewall problem.

Natalie, can you explain your solution? I can not connect via Remote
Desktop from Win XP to Win 2000 (Error 800).
