working remotely with XP Pro

[Guest]

Two machines running XP Pro which log onto a domain. Both of these machines have admin rights. I cannot get remote desktop to work. I went into gpedit.msc and gave them permissions under Remote Control. I'm still having trouble. Please, anyone I need help and cannot seem to get this to work.

I don't know if this matters, but even XP Pro machines that I've delt with that are not on a domain, it seem that I'm always having trouble with XP Remote Desktop.

Is a firewall up on the machine(s) you are trying to connect to that's
blocking tcp port 3389?
