How do you enable Remote Desktop Connection in Windows 2000? I installed the

W2000 RDC client and that is working. I want to connect to a W2000 machine

remotely with RDC.

You can't under Win2000, only under WinXP Professional

and Windows Servers. Use a third-party product such as

WinVNC.

Re: Enabling Remote Desktop Connection in W2000

 

Hello,

 

Pegasus, I have read about a RDP Web Active X using IIS and a Server to

receive the request for the Win2000 computer. Do you have any information or

experience with this option that would allow a remote desktop to a 2000

client?

 

If possibel provide feedback.

 

Thanks,

 

Isvet

These claims pop up at regular intervals but I have never

seen a post that substantiated the claim. So far all of the

posters were confused about the roles of "RDP Server"

and "RDP Client". AFAIK, you cannot run the Terminal

Server service on a Win2000 machine, hence you cannot

use it as an RDP host.
