| [XP] Remote Desktop problem on wired computer
I'm am at a loss with this problem. It has started just recently and was working great for a LONG period of time. No major changes to the PC (i'm the only user) and just recently UNINSTALLED Windows OneCare Live.
Computer 1 is hard wired to network via LinkSys WRT54G Wireless Router. Every other computer has no problem with remote desktop (internal and external) with proper port forwarding but Computer 1 will not allow a remote desktop connection. It can send out a connection but not receive.
I have tried repairing network connection, disabling firewall, enabling and proper exceptions, releasing ip, renewing ip, removing adapter, reinstalling adapter, restarting, etc. EVERYTHING has been tried.
Please help! |

| Any chance your running NAV 2005 worm protection on that PC? That has been reported to kill RDP connections...
Otherwise see this page for some troubleshooting help...

| reply to gigahurtz Just an FYI: I found the source the problem.
I was approved a couple months ago to be a OneCare Live Beta Tester. I installed the program and used it for a couple of months. I suppose just recently it updated and reset settings to default (only allow local network remote connections and do not allow ICMP packets). When I uninstalled the program, these settings weren't reset to WINDOWS default so I could not remote desktop nor could I ping my main machine. I had to reinstall OneCare and report the bug to Microsoft. I'm curious to see what they say. |
