I have been using PuTTY/RDP to log into a windows 10 machine.
I use PuTTY to log into mydomain.com. Under "Connection/SSH/Tunnels" I have entered "localhost:3389" as the source port, and "myremotepc:3389" as the destination.
After I have logged in, I open up the Windows Remote Desktop Connection and enter "localhost" or "localhost:3389". I have entered the correct username "myname" or "MYLOCALPC\myname".
I get the error message: Remote Desktop Connection "Your computer could not connect to another console session on the remote computer because you already have a console session in progress".
Next I tried entering "127.0.0.2:3389" as the source port, and "myremotepc:3389" as the destination. I opened up Windows Remote Desktop and connected to 127.0.0.2. I now get the prompt for a user name and password, but when I enter the correct credentials I get "Your credentials did not work. The credentials that were used to connect to 127.0.0.2 did not work. Please enter new credentials"
Can anyone help me?
If I'm following your setup correctly, the username should be entered as
myremotepc\myname
instead ofmylocalpc\myname
