Various version of XP are able to remotely connect to a 2003 server however Windows Vista results with no error. I enable 'Warn me if authentication fails', in Vista and it resulted in the following error using ports 3389 and 3390: ******************************** ******************************** Remote Desktop cannot verify the identity of the computer you want to connect to. This problem can occur if: 1) The remote computer is running a version of Windows that is earlier than Windows Vista. 2) The remote computer is configured to support only the RDP security layer.

I cannot remote connect to my computer running Vista from XP Pro. I setup an ip address in the router for port 3389 and opened it up and also used that same ip on my home machine. When I ping the ip address for the home machine it sends the packets no problem so I have no idea why I cannot connect to it. Please HELP!!!
