  • As this computer remote desktop connection cannot connect to the desktop remotely

    Sometimes, I try to connect to my desktop and I get an error and sometimes it works and sometimes does not.

    Why is this?

    This could happen if you use a Wi - Fi connection with network problems, if some of the data is lost in transit.
    You can run this command to see if there is packet loss:
    ping-l 512 f - n 100

    It will send 100 queries and should receive 100 responses from the remote computer.
    If get you all "Request timed out" messages, then this might be a firewall is not blocking the pings on the remote computer.
    If get you one or more "Request timed out" messages, then this might be a network problem.

  • Equipment does not respond when connected with the desktop remotely

    Hello

    I have a PC with labview controlling a power supply via a serial connection. It works fine, except when I am looged in remote to my PC from another PC lab via desktop remotely. The VI runs correctly, but does not have the equipment to receive orders. Why would it be?

    Thank you

    Guillaume.

    If you have configured, the remote computer might try to use the serial port on the computer you're remot desktopping of.  Carefully go through the remote desktop settings and make sure that you are not telling the remote computer to use local ports.

  • How do you keep users to connect via the desktop remotely on another?

    Use: Windows 2008 R2
    Connection method: connection Remote Desktop

    We have users insist on granting of their login and password to another user if that person can connect. Even when they have their own login!

    So what happens is the the two #1 can be saved in on the job server all log in user #2 in the server, with the same login, closing at #1. While I can only educate them to use their own connections, so the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make them drink. :(

    What I have and I'm not finding, is a way to have the system notify User #2 that login is already in use, try again later.  I would like to accomplish this through Group Policy.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

  • When I reinstall windows from my dell disk, everything is great and there are no programs. Also, I can't connect to the Internet.

    Good so I bought a Dell Inspiron of the 620 years for the game and I had to reinstall Windows 7 on a drive I ordered from dell. So I reinstalled Windows 7 and now I have a lot of problems. So first of all it seems very strange, the taskbar is not transparent and all the buttons are very weird. Also, there are no programs in the start menu. Secondly, it is said there is no Internet connection available, but I plugged in everything. I can also connect to the Internet on other PCs as my laptop. Any help is necessary, because I really want to return to the game. :)

    Hello

    When you reinstall the operating system, you must obtain the latest drivers for Windows 7 Support of Dell.

    Go to this link for your model, and then select the operating system > and then select the correct chart, drivers etc. :

    For network adapter drivers, you can use the computer you are about to post here to go to the link above of Dell > download and save the software drivers for the office > transfer using a Flash drive and install it on the problem machine.

    Then use your game machine to get the rest.

  • To connect to the desktop from the internet view

    Hi all

    I recently installed a view connection Server 5.0 and a manual pool with a single desktop computer in order to access my VMware infrastructure while I'm not at home.

    I redirected the port 443 and 4172 access to connect to the server view and I am able to authenticate but the customer view freezes when I connect to the desktop computer because she needs the internal ip address of the office.

    I don't understand the principle of the use of the customer in view of the internet while each connection to the servers or office uses the internal ip or FQDN address. What did I wrong? What should I do to just plug in my office to view with the client from the internet?

    You must activate the tunnel and the tunnel of PCoIP on the broker for connections (on the admin interface > servers > Connection Broker) and specify the external URL (that you access from internet. for example, vdi.home.com, not the host name internal.)

    You must also specify the external IP address. Is that you expose to the outside.

  • Is it possible to use the desktop remotely without password?

    Hello, I have a question for remote desktop connection.

    I have two computer, computer (XP pro) and computer B.  And A computer user account has no password created.  My question is, if I activate the remote desktop on A computer (computer A user account has no password) and try to access it remotely from computer B, is it possible to connect? or should I set password of computer user account to access desktop remotely from another computer?

    If anyone can help me with the answer, I would really appreciate it!

    If your PC has no password and disable remote desktop is so they can access account, if it is disable remote desktop. By default, it's that do not allow access without password if you do not have password for Remote Desktop works by default unless you change the setting in the security policy that I posted.

    If Disable generator IP = remote desktop won't get to your PC

    If remote desktop enable no default = password cannot access but if change the security policy as I said can be accessed.

    You could try these different scenario by laptop and try to access your by using remote desktop.
