Windows 7 connection problems (Remote Desktop)

I am currently running Windows 7, Home Premium.  I am trying to connect to my place of work via Remote Desktop.  The shop is Windows XP pro, so I know I should be able to connect.  When I try to connect I get three messages, but 1 & 2 do not apply.  The message that applies is: 3) is not available on the network of the remote computer.

Can help you with this?

Thank you.

    I need more info on how your network is configured to answer the question on the other.  How is the computer connected to the internet?  It connects wireless or cable to the router or modem or through ICS from another computer or what?  How do you change between the sharing of internet connection currently?  What happens when you try to enable both connections at the same time (or do not have two connections)?

  • In windows Vista (Home Premium) Remote Desktop connection does not work correctly

    I installed and re-installed my Vista (Home premium) 2 times already because of the remote desktop connection.  I have a problem connecting from another laptop running windows 7 to connect to my desktop running Vista.  The remote control works on the other hand the meaning of desktop running vista, laptop running windows 7 Professional.
    Looking at the Vista under \System\Remote setting\Remote tab which shows the remote assistance box, but the Office box where you can choose what type of connection can be established remotely is missing.

    I went though all as responses to forum, but nothing helped.  Even in a "sfc/scannow" command prompt running did not help.  It is said that he finds corrupted files, but it cannot solve all corrupted files.  That's why I reinstalled windows hoping to fix this problem but WITHOUT SUCCESS.

    Can anyone help?  I've attached a screenshot of what I see in vista.

    can I connect to a windows 7 pro is a windows xp pro?

    Yes you can, please try the following:

    1 right-click 'Computer' and select 'Properties' (or open 'Control panel' and select 'System')

    2. click on "Remote settings" in the upper left corner of the window
    3. on the "Remote" tab, select "allow connections to this computer remotely.

    4. make sure that you uncheck "Allow only the connection of computers running Office remotely with level (recommended) network authentication" as I'm sure that XP does not support this.

  • Client VPN blocks inbound connections from remote desktop?

    I am running Vista x 64. To connect to a VPN Windows via the built-in VPN client works except that it seems that all incoming connections from the local network (including remote desktop) are blocked.

    Is this a known problem or design? It is a problem for us because the computer that is running the VPN client is a virtual machine running in hyper-v, so accessible by users via remote desktop - only connection to the console of the hyper-v Server is not an option.

    Are there alternatives?

    It sounds like the question to split the tunnel . On the VPN client you can enable/disable split tunneling. See this article for help with that.

    Note the security ramifications...

    In addition, I can not comment on this issue and a virtual machine, so as always YMMV...

  • Can Ping but not connect via Remote Desktop - how to change the settings of the outside LAN adapter

    I have a Windows Server 2012 machine connected to a Windows 7 Pro machine via a switch.

    Internet is shared on the Windows Server and the port sharing network has a static ip address. Similarly, the port connected to the Windows 7 Pro has a static ip address. I was able to desktop Windows 7 remotely from the server without any problem until very recently.

    Recently, I had to change some properties of the LAN on the machines and I was changing the gateway by default for the Windows 7 Pro, when I was hunting from my remote desktop session and I was not able to reconnect since. I don't know if I accidentally blew the subnet or the default gateway, but I know for sure that I do not touch the part of the parameters ip address.

    In addition, I can't ping the server computer but I am not able to connect via RDP. Please suggest any possible causes and solutions for this case. Both computers are remote and I can connect via the internet to the server computer.

    As my title suggests, I'm trying to find out if there is a way to reset the settings of the adapter LAN from Windows 7 to my server and proceed from that.

    Please let me know if you need more information.

    Thank you.

  • Connection to remote desktop using proxy and gateway desktop remotely?

    I have setup a gateway desktop remotely using Windows Server R2 2012 server. I use Remote Desktop gateway as an intermediary between to offer remote desktop session more than 443 because 3389 is blocked in several places of the customer.

    However, I encountered a problem with a customer that the network seems to use a web proxy.

    Is is possible to set up remote desktop to connect via web proxy? If so, how? If this is not the case, does anyone have any suggestions on how to provide a remote desktop session through 443 on proxy for situations where you don't control the client PC or network? RemoteApps allows access through the web proxy when you use Remote Desktop gateway?

    The error message is below to:

    Your computer cannot connect to the remote computer because the web proxy server requires authentication. To allow traffic not authenticated to a desktop gateway server remotely through your web proxy server, contact your network administrator.

    Thanks for any help!

  • Can we share a link between the Group of users for a direct connection for remote desktop connection?

    Hello community,

    I am running the scripts on one of our internal server - Windows Server 2008 R2, which I connect remotely by the connection service Office. My thought is, I want to share a link to users that are running on the machine local windows 7, which leads directly to this folder on the remote server where the script results are stored.

    Ofcourse Remote Desktop connection is the name of the computer, the user name and password. Therefore, the link I want to share to open this dialog box asking for details and take the user directly in the folder.

    I know that sounds like what we are doing to map a network drive. But just hoping if it means something.

    Looking for answers.

  • MCE IR remote stops working when connected via Remote Desktop Win7

    I recently added an IR remote for my computer to Windows 7 (32 bit Ultimate) that I use mainly for playback of mp3. The remote control is only an AVS Gear MG-IR01BK Windows Vista/Window7 MCE Remote control infrared works by attached USB "infrared transceiver eHome.  When I physically connect the machine IR remote works perfectly; as soon as I connect via remote IR Office stops responding.  I had to configure the Audio remotely to RDP to get this to work correctly, but I can't find any setting that controls in response to the infrared remote control.  My quest for answers has turned up nothing so far, someone has suggested?

    Thanks for the suggestion.  At thegreenbutton.com behavior that I have reported was confirmed by others (the MCE Remote control is a HID device, so is related to the "console"). VNC is a viable alternative to remote desktop. I ended up using TightVNC (RealVNC purchase required for support of Windows 7), and the infrared remote control continues to work when I access the machine via the VNC viewer.   I want to remote desktop could provide this capability, but at least I have a working with VNC solution.
