Okay I have a problem using remote desktop connection, when I try to run it on my other computer so that I can access one computer from another location so my work computer from my home computer for example
after typing in the ip and pressing connect and signing in as the admin on the computer im trying to connect to it gives me this problem
what computer do I give rites on and also how do you give someone rites
but also would I need to even give rites If I knew the administrator login...
uhm I think the problem is my ports cus when I try open port checker it says the ports are closed
like everysingle port I try is closed but im using the internet and stuff so Im not sure if their really
closed or if they only appear closed for some reason and I also tried it by disabling my firewall but
still says the port is like not open so im not sure how to check if their open for sure
Dizzy, hi. As much as I like Remote Desktop for it's speed and efficiency, I know that it is complex and difficult to set up. Go to Start -> Help and Support and search on Remote Desktop and you will find some help there. Besides enabling Remote Desktop sessions, you may also need to tell your firewall to allow such connections and if you have a router, you need to set port forwarding on port 3389. Also, the remote system must have a password on the profile you are logging in on and that account should be locked or logged out. The local system must have the right Terminal Services Client which was upgraded in Vista. So if the local system is not Vista, you need to upgrade the Terminal Services Client.
As for the ports, there are a number of possibilities, but the firewall and any routers or gateways between the two systems can cause trouble. If you can experiment with the two systems on the same LAN, that's a great way to get the settings configured. Also, if you want to remote connect to a system over the Internet, then you should really use a VPN connection. Not only does it provide security that Remote Desktop lacks, but it can to NAT traversal right through most routers and gateways. Also, if you are logging in to a work system from home, your employer should provide you with VPN access because they will want their data protected from snooping.
