I hope this is the correct newsgroup for this question. I setup pcs (xp
pro) with remote desktop everyday and usually with no problem. I have
had two machines recently at different locations that were setup
correctly (double checked) that I cannot access. I get the following
error...
"The client could not connect....remote connections might not be enabled
or the computer might be to busy"
Has anyone had this issue that can shine some light on troubleshooting
this for me.
Thanks in advance

Have you checked with the command "netstat -an" on those clients if
they are listening on port 3389?
Is there anything in the EventLog on the clients?
Are they running SP2? Have you checked the firewall settings?
