Remote Desktop Problem

Hi,

I have customers with Vista Business installed SP1. I have enabled remote
desktop on the PC's and have the firewall rule in place. However, I cannot
connect to any of the machines. Nothing is reported in event log on the
affected machine either.

Any ideas?

You need to find your customers a new technician.
You're over your head!!

A bit of info about this idiot spoofer.

The spoofer uses a Newsreader.
I use Web Interface.

Spoofer crossposts through Newsreader; Web Interface can't.

If you click on my name in the reply posts of mine here, my details are
visible: name, total number of posts, date of joining, users helped, etc

Click on the spoofer's name in HIS reply posts here: my FAKED name, and
whatever Address he wants to use, if he wants to use one; and that is it.

Hi,

Do you have any third party internet security software installed on them?
Frequently, they are the cause of this problem. Also, what path are you
attempting to use? If they are behind a company router, then it would have
to be configured to forward the remote requests.

No software installed.

It's in a domain. Group policy is opening the port on the firewall and
enabling remote desktop. Cannot connect.
