I built a new machine for someone and put xp pro with sp2 on it all
udpates etc. Disabled the windows firewalland setup remote desktop
selected the users and set the proper ports on the router i use 32001
for the web page and 3389 is forwarded as well. The inital page comes
up in internet explorer after i enter the computer name it goes to a
screen and a pop up comes up saying " The specified remote computer
could not be found. verify that you have typed the correct computer
name or IP address, and then try connecting again." Any computer on
the local network can access the computer just fine by going thru the
same routine. Any adivce of help would be appreciated.

Don't put anything in the box, just hit enter.
