Interesting.  I will look at this, but I really need to get RDT working.

Thanks!

Have you tried Google remote desktop?
It does not need any twicking with W7, just install it in your machine and theirs and you get in with no hassles. The only drawback so far is it does not have file transfer. But I resolved that by installing FileZilla in my machine. Once inside the client's machine, I use the explorer to connect to my ftp in FileZilla and I can transfer files both ways.

But users can run applications in the remote machine just like Microsoft RDP

Ted: I only tried about 250 suggestions and worked on it for about four days. ;^) What a waste of time. This is actually two different customers. I think it's related to the homegroup stuff in Windows 7. Since these are both remote systems it is tough for me to see everything and the way they've moved things around it's hard for me to find things. I have to see if I disabled homegroup for public and private networks. I also have to work around customer schedules. I can ping the machines by the way.

Windows 8 seems to access Windows 7 just fine.

As always, thank you for your help.

I am in bad need of some help.  I have numerous clients using remote
desktop in all kinds of configurations. I have one combination that is not working at two different locations. I have Googled it and tried everything

Jeff:

I Googled the error message and got 38 thousand hits. If you have "tried
everything suggested" as you say, you have had a busy couple of days!


It is a Windows 7 computer trying to remote into a Windows 7 computer.

Are they:

1. Both up to date on patches, and (optional) Remote Access tools? IIRC, M$
modified RDP in the Win8 timeframe so some older machines can't access
newer ones.

2. Is the target machine set to allow remote access?

3. Is there a 3rd party firewall involved, on either machine?

4. What's the network between the two?

There are numerous suggestions and I have tried them all. I can't believe something that works so well on other versions of the OS are so difficult
here.

No two windows machines in the world are configured the same. You just need
to work out what's blocking this one.

Also, when I set a fixed IP address and name servers, Windows 7 keeps
changing it back to DHCP.  Can you turn off DHCP for one computer?

Yes, you can. Perhaps you need to be logged in as the Administrator, or
have some other god-like power.



Please help. I have spent several days trying to get this one working.

Please give us something to work with. How does the remote machine address
its target? How are the two supposed to find each other? Can the remote
machine ping the target? Can another machine within the target's local
network access the target via RDP?
