    Hey Folks
    RDP question;
    I have been to several forums trying to learn how to RDP from a Windows 7 Pro machine to an xp pro sp3 machine. Every place I have found tells me you can be on an xp mach and rdp into a 7 pro mach, but not the other way around. Well I’m sitting in front of my xp pro mach with win 7 pro on screen. So much for those forums. Any ideas would be awesome
    Thanks

    If using RDP from XP to WIN7, make sure that the RDP setting is:
    "Allow connections from computers running any version of RD (less secure)"
    as opposed to:
    "Allow conncections only from computers running RD with NLA (more secure)"

    You can find this setting in the REMOTE tab of System Properties
