Win7 to Win7 Remote Desktop Not working, Xp to 7 working fine
- by vlad b.
Hello,
I have a small home network and recently i tried to enable remote desktop for one of the pc's. I have a mix of Windows 7, Windows Vista and Xp runing alongside ubuntu, centos and others (some virtual, some real).
I have a few Windows 7 pc`s that can be connected to using remote desktop from inside and outside the network (port redirects on routers, etc, etc) and some Xp ones.
The trouble is when i tried to do the same thing to a Win7 laptop i discovered i can't connect to it from another win7 pc inside the home network. To sum it up
Working: xp -- win7
not working: win7 -- win7
What i tried
- disable and enable remote desktop (my computer - remote settings)
- removing and adding users to the remote settings window
- adding a new user to the machine, administrator or 'normal' user
- checking the firewall settings on the machine and set 'allow' to remote desktop for both 'home/work' and 'public'networks
Any tips on what should i do next?
It displays ' .. secure connection' and after that the window with 'Your security credentials did not work' and it lets me try again with another user/password..
