I enabled Remote Desktop Connection, forwarded the ports, the services are running, but I can't connect.
On the 'host' computer, running the client program for IP address 127.0.0.1 is successful. I enter my admin username and password, and I log in successfully.
On the actual computer I want to act like a client, connecting to my host's public IP address gives me a logon prompt. I enter the same username and password, but I get "The logon attempt failed".
How do I fix this?
What ports did you forward? What is your network configuration? Is it just host -> router -> ISP? – thane – 2012-02-29T11:38:52.573
Yes, it is host -> router -> ISP and it's not a problem with my network as RDC can connect fine, just the password is wrong. – apscience – 2012-03-01T23:13:49.873
