RDC: Because of a Protocol Error...

[Tim K]

I keep getting a Protocol Error when computers in my home network try to
access my PC. I can access other PCs from my computer no problem? What is
the cause of this... Thank you.

You mean your machine A in home network trying to access another machine B
outside of home network?

Ususally, this is

remember some router issue that can also causes this.

No, Its all within the network.

We've had one thread which appeared to involve a particular application
running on the host machine--by recollection it was "newsbin pro??"

Never figured out what to do about it--when that app was running, RD got
that error. The OP was in touch with the apps developer, but it wasn't
clear what actions the developer could take to fix the situation.

Nope, I have no irregular APPS running... For awhile, I thought it was a
graphics driver issue, cause I have a nvidia card, and heard on the net that
you get the same error when opening mIRC. But I rolled back on a driver and
that did not fix the issue. I then thought it was a static IP issue, cause
I did change my IP, but that did not fix it either...

I'm back to the "run msinfo and set up a clean boot" type advice, I
think--see whether it works in some circumstances (with most third-party
drivers eliminated) and you can triage through the drivers and see what
makes it quit?
