Vista - Remote desktop.

Remote desktop.

I have setup a VPN connection under Vista/Longhorn. The connection indicates
success (when I click on the "connect" button). However when I use remote
desktop to connect to a computer that is in the remote domain I get an
indication that the computer could not be found. How can I diagnose this? If
I do something similar in Windows 2003 it works just fine so I know the
remote network and computer is OK. It just seems that with Vista/Longhorn I
am unable to connect.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Kevin

RE: Remote desktop.
