Remote desktop connection doesnt work

jobin · 04-03-2007, 09:34 AM

If we go to Control panel > System > Remote , in the remote tab
I dont find the option to configure the remote desktop connection.
I have attached a screenshot of the remote tab.

How can I get back the option ? I have a Wndows XP home SP2 edition.

U need to enable remote desktop on client computer also.

And then add an account (that exists on ur server) to the clients remote desktop connection settings. That will be used to grant access to the client through server.

Now just go to start menu> all programs> accessories> communications> remote connection
Thats all.

If u want to access the Remote Destop of the computer attached to ur network then u have to go for the following steps.
1)First of all u have to enable the Remote Desktop on ur PC as well as on the PC on ur network.
2)U must disable the Windows or any other Firewall ur using.
3)The administrator password must be set on both the computer.
4)Go to Start - Run - type "mstsc" - enter - and type the IP of the Pc ur sharing the Desktop.
and it is all over.

There is nothing to do with any settings, XP Home don't support RDP, better go for VNC
