| | Failure w/ Vista laptop using Remote Desktop Connection To XP comp I am trying to configure my laptop to be able to work on an office computer. I was able to do this with my home desktop without a problem because both of those computers were using Windows XP. I have installed the VPN on the Vista laptop & I can connect without a problem. However, when I lauch Remote Desktop Connection and I log in I get the following error message: "The remote desktop cannot verify the identity of the computer you want to connect to. This problem can occur if: 1. The remote comkputere is running a version of windows that is earlier than Windows Vista. 2. The Remote computer is configured to support only the RDP security layer." Does this mean that it is IMPOSSIBLE for a Vista computer to do a remote connection to an XP Computer? |
