OK, let's simplify the problem a bit. I have a Linux laptop that I am trying to connect to a Windows XP machine on the same subnet in my home network. It experiences the same problem as I've described. Other XP machine on the same subnet can connect with Remote Desktop under XP. Furthermore, the laptop has an XP running inside of VMWare which can also connect to other XP machines using Remore Desktop without a problem. This tells me tha the proper network ports are open, *OR* rdesktop does not use the same ports as Windows Remote Desktop does. This is my dilemma. Why does Windows->Windows work, but not Linux->Windows. Does Remote Desktop require a back port that is not open in rdesktop? I've seen many different posting from people who say "it just works for me". But it doesn't just work for me, not on 3 different machines running 3 different versions of Fedora. Then, again, yesterday I was ready to say that it didn't even work Windows->Windows until I physically copied the RAIncident file to the connecting machine and opened it by file association.... > Greetings, > Jim.
