Hi

I am trying to connect remotely to a win xp media centre machine using
remote desktop. I get the win xp mc login screen but when I enter a username
I get the error, user can not login due to a restriction on his account or
something similar. I have checked that user is computer administrator and is
allowed to connect via remote desktop under System->Remote in control panel.
What is the problem and how can I fix it?

Thanks

Regards

Does the account have a password? That is required...
