    Will not accept RDP incoming


    Hello,

    I have done everything I can think of to allow incoming RDP sessions, but it is not working.

    I have checked the box under system properties/remote (Allow Remote Assistance connection to this computer) and I have check the box under McAfee Firewall/ports and system services for port 3389.

    I have also temporarily turned off the firewall....no good.

    I know that system I am RDP'ing from works because I can get to a Windows XP machine.

    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry but Home Premium does not support incoming RDP.

    See link (Scroll down to Remote Desktop Connection):

    From whatg I read it is Windows XP Home that does not support it. I thought all versions of Windows 7 did. I will double check that. The settings are there, the RDP app is there I can control another machine from the Windows 7 machine.

    How about posting the link to the patch for this because it may help others with this same limitation.
