Tried telnet ("TELNET MyRemoteCompName 3389") on both computers, both
failed("Connect failed"), but I still connect 1 way with remote desktop.
I have tried using IP, and it gives the same error.
In the meantime ive been using the "Beyond Remote Server/Client" Freeware,
which actually works pretty good. But I would really like to know why my
remote desktop doesnt work both ways, and would prefer to be using remote
desktop instead of third party freeware.
Thanks,
Gustavo
