2008r2

I'm adding a new 64-bit server to our domain. Everything seems fine except when accessing the machine using remote desktop, after a few seconds the connection is lost. The error message is "This computer can't connect to the remote computer." "Try connecting again. If the problem continues, contact the owner of the remote computer or your network administrator."

A similar result with Telnet on port 3389. I am able to connect but if I hit a key the connection to host lost.

The event log shows the successful login. No errors.

Any ideas?
