RDC Connection
I have a system setup with a SBS box running DHCP and a domain controller, a server box running TS and apps, it is tied together with a Netgear FVS318v3 router. I am trying to setup an RDC from home into my work PC on local 192.168.0.49 I have setup a firewall rule to forward port 3389 to the local address and it all connects when tested on the local LAN but when I try and connect from home I get an error that it cannot connect to remote system. The machines at work are XP Pro and the machine at home is Vista business. Any ideas would be apprciated. ------------------------------ Stuart Pope ----------------------------- |

RDC Connection
Hi
It is probably Not a Windows problem on the work station computer. It has to be related to the traffic coming through the Router and its relation to the server and the way the Gateway and DNS is configured. May be as first step you should try it on its own without the intervention of SBS. Jack (MS, MVP-Networking) "m4r" wrote in message ...
