Cannot RDP connect from Vista to Server 2003

When I attempt to make an RDP connection from Vista to a remote machin
running Windows Server 2003, it seems to partially connect. It display
a 'Log On To Windows Server' dialog window, but it is blank......th
fields where I would normally type in my credentials are not displayed.
After about a minute, I get the following message:, "Your Remote sessio
has ended. The connection to the remote computer was lost, possibll
due to connectivity problems."

However, on other PCs running Windows XP, I can consistently RD
connect to this same remote machine which is running Windows Serve
2003. Why is Windows Vista unable to make a RDP connection to Window
Server 2003? Is there something that needs to be configured differentl
on the Windows Server 2003 machine to allow Vista RDP connections

Also I can successfully make RDP connections from Vista to machine
running Windows XP. It appears the problem is just when making a RD
connection from Vista to Server 200

Thanks

Well I guess you have no idea what a server is or what it stands for. If you do not
know your server and how it is set up (AC or DC) then you have no business running
one. Good Luck

And just to mention.
You are better off to repost this to the windows.server.networking. Be prepared that
you will be asked if your server is in the AC or DC environment

My server runs standalone. Is it OK if I claim to know what I am
doing?

Also, wouldn't that be AD or DC? Unless of course we're talking power
supplies.

To the OP: I can connect to my 2003 server from Vista without any
issues. So, it's not Vista per se.

Can you make other network connections to the server? e.g. can you
connect to a shared drive? How is authentication handled between the
server and the client?

So I can run it off my car battery?
