Terminal Server on XP Pro?

Question

I'm using XP Pro / MC. I'd like to use remote desktop amongst my LAN. When I try to access any other computer from mine I get the error "this domain/work group does not contain any terminal servers."

I can connect to the computers via remote using MSN messenger, but am trying to have a easier use of doing it with out haveing to create an MSN account for each computer.

Terminal services is running on my computer, I am not sure what else needs to be done to get it up and running properly. I do not currently have any computers running windows server, and was hoping that I could use XP Pro to run the terminal server from, anyone able to help?

Answer 1

Turn on Remote Desktop, then enter the ip address of the pc you want to connect with.

Answer 2

Hardware: changing the processor and motherboard might desire to recommend you may desire to re-activate, so which you may might desire to activate two times in case you put in the SW first. ideally, you may re-format and do a clean setting up of XP, yet that takes greater time. Cheers

Answer 3

I think what you want is REMOTE DESKTOP. It really has nothing at all to do with terminal servers!



Here is the HOW to for XP
