Since we installed a new server at work and changed the domain name, I have
been unable to connect my Windows XP Pro computer at home to my Windows XP
computer at work. I have been doing this a long time but with the new server
I can't connect. Is it possible that this needs something done in the group
policy? Our nertwork admin doesn't have a clue how to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Do a simple test, can you telnet port 3389?

Then you need to check the port forwarding and TCP/IP settings. It could be the IP range changed.

These things seem to be setup ok. My network administrator has checked them
as well and everything seems to be correct. But, the connection still can
not be made. Thanks for your help in trying to resolve this issue.
