    Remote Desktop Connection


    Hi Everyone,

    I have two dell hybrid computers with windows 7 home edition and on Windows XP home edition.

    Idealy I would like to be able to Remote desktop Connection from the XP machine to both the Windows 7 machines. However currently I cant even get both the windows seven machines to RDP to each other. I have been able to establish ping replies from both so both the machines can see each other on the network. Can anyone please help.
    Kind Regards
    Austin
