Re: Remote Desktop TO Windows XP Professional FROM Windows Vista

I had a problem, at first, running RD on my Vista Ultimate machine to my
WinXP Pro machine (and networking, for that matter). On both machines, I
have different logins (my wife's and mine on the XP, admin and mine on the
Vista machine).

The problem was that I was not requiring passwords for the logins. As soon
as I added a password (I made the user name and password the same for my
account on both machines), everything worked great, including RD.

Hope this helps. It would have saved /me/ a lot of hours! ;-)
