Remote desktop

[Guest]

I can not get remote dsktop to work. When I go to the network troubleshooting and click on terminal service troubleshooting I get the following message

Cannot display the page

There is something in my network that is preventing me from using remote desktop. Is there a way to uninstall and reinstall

Thank

Perhaps it would be best to describe how your trying to use Remote Desktop?

Do you have Remote Desktop enabled on the XP Pro host box?

Are you trying to access the host box over a local LAN? If so, are you calling using the correct LAN
IP address? Are you running any personal firewall software that may be causing a problem? If so,
either disable the firewall software or open TCP Port 3389.

Are you trying to access the host box over the public internet? If so are you calling the correct
IP? Do you have any firewalls that may be blocking RD? If so forward TCP Port 3389 to the private
LAN IP of the host.
