(SOLVED) Remote Desktop cannot be enabled, Windows 7 Professional.
Steevo:
Mine says local service.
I wonder if that's the problem?
I just changed it to Network Service, did check name, blanked the PW boxes, and got a message that NT authority had been granted logon rights.
I will test again from the other computer on a local address.
I just tried. Same message, cannot connect to the remote computer. I have not rebooted this one.
Boggin:
Let's up that was it.
How is anyone supposed to know what the password is ?
Do you still get the 1068 error for that other service - can't seem to find that one on mine.
Steevo:
I was able to start Remote Desktop Services. No more error message.
The Remote Desktop Services Usermode port redirector is now started too.
Both errors are gone. But I still cannot connect.
I just checked remotely with
http://ping.eu/port-chk/
and that port is still closed.
I verified the port is forwarded on the router.
It appears things are looking up. I appreciate your looking at yours so I can compare. I only have an old XP system to compare to, and I am not sure how valid that would be. Prolly the same.
Boggin:
I've never gone into Remote Desktop connectivity so I'm unable to help with that.
Can you remote connect from the XP machine to the Win 7 one ?
Steevo:
No, I still cannot connect to this Windows 7 machine from the XP one. I have used that XP machine to connect to RDC remotely many times.
The problem is with the windows 7 machine.
