Might have something to do with the "generic network problems message"   Or it might have something to do with the network configuration.  Or with any firewalls that might be present.  Is the Server configured to allow terminal services.  Does the Server have a static IP address and is it listed in the DNS server.  Does the laptop have the correct DNS server listed.  Are you trying to cross subnets, if so do you have WINS servers up.  When you use the RDC do you enter IP addresses or computer names.  Is the server name mistyped.    The connection probably isn't the issue.  Maybe a little more information might help.   chuck -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Felker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2002 10:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] OT- Terminal Services/Remote Desktop Issue All,   One of my coworkers has a laptop with Windows XP and wants to Remote Desktop into one of our servers.  He upgraded the laptop from WIN 2k to WIN XP.  We also put the Server on the domain.  It seems as though his laptop is the only machine that cannot Terminal Service into the server.  It doesn’t even give it a chance, just gives the generic network problems message.  He can Remote Desktop into our other Win 2k Servers on the domain.  Does anyone have any ideas as to what is going on.   I told him to just Remote Desktop into his PC and then from there Remote Desktop to the server, but he doesn’t like that idea. J   What is wrong with the connection?
