Remote Connection

The suggestion provided by ASH was to test the RDP in this way:

telnet IP_PC 3389

if you have a blank screen with no errors, RDP is working fine. Otherwise, restart that pc :)

If there's a share on that pc (also the c$ is ok), try the following:

(from the RUN window)

\\IP_PC_NOT_WORKING\SHARE_NAME

if it works, restart that pc (remote pc), maybe the protocol (RDP) is stucked somewhere.
Click to expand...

You mean click start, then type this in the run box and hit enter?
 
can you restart that remote pc? Try to connect to another pc via RDP and type:

shutdown /r /f /m \\IP_PC /t 1

Let me know.
 
The problem has to be with the PC I am trying to remote into. I have run out of ideas to the point I may just reformat and see if I can fix it that way....

Any ideas?
 
So actually, you can restart that pc, ping it, but not RDP... Have you tried the TELNET command on port 3389? Do you have a black screen?

If you do a port scan on that host, are there any open ports?
