I'm pretty sure (and I marked Graeme's message for testing later on to verify for myself), that this is only relevant if you have the Windows firewall turned on, without having RDP set up as an explicit exception to the firewall.

I've got RDP access to my new 2008 DC now, but network discovery is off. .Tim From: Graeme Carstairs [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2008 9:21 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Cannot use RDP to coonnect to a Windows 2008 Server Yeh its wonderful, Join to the domain loose RDP, until you switch it back on.

Using Dameware mini remote console. Remoted onto server and directly enabled network discovery and it worked straight away.

Since I have removed it from teh domain, I can no longer RDP onto it, I have tried using PSEXEC and net sh to reenable network discovery. ?But still cannot access it via rdp, I can get access to its C$ shares and run all the remote admin tools, but cannt get RDP to work, the FDney TS connections key in the reg is set correctly, but I cannot work out how to reenable rdp Thanks Graeme -- Carbon credits are a bit like beating someone up on this side of the world and sponsoring one of those poor starving kids on the other side of the world to make up for the fact that you're a complete shit at home. -- Carbon credits are a bit like beating someone up on this side of the world and sponsoring one of those poor starving kids on the other side of the world to make up for the fact that you're a complete shit at home. -- Carbon credits are a bit like beating someone up on this side of the world and sponsoring one of those poor starving kids on the other side of the world to make up for the fact that you're a complete shit at home. ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
