RDC over Web problem

[Guest]

Im trying to setup Remote Desktop Connection over Web on my home computer so
i can access it from Work, University etc. so both computers are XP Pro. I
am running a router/ADSL modem and port forwarding has been set correctly.
In a IE browser i type in the IP addressort etc. of my computer and it goes
to the Remote Desktop connection however the connect button is greyed out and
i cannot click it. Any ideas why? Ive read through heaps of online articles
and cant find anything that mentions this.

Thanks heaps
Adam

It seems to me you use TSWeb. If this is the case, the first time access need to have rights to install the software. Try to logon as administrator. Or just use XP RDC.
