Cannot Manage remote PC

Guest

I need to "Manage" one of our remote XP PCs. I can do this with most other
PCs by right mouse-clicking on MY Computer and choosing "Connect to another
computer". But with this one it just says it cannot be managed.
I've also noticed I can't map to the C$ on this PC. Since I am the
administrator is there any way to change these security settings remotely?

I'd probably start by looking at the firewall on the client, to make sure
it's not blocking you. if
you're using a domain, and this is a domain member computer, you may need to
look at your group policy settings.
