More info?)
The PCs that I have done the clean install on are the clients. They cannot
be controlled by Remote Desktop. I would be interested to hear if anybody
else has created an integrated (slipstreamed) version of Windows XP w/ SP2
and has had success with Remote Desktop. I can connect to my other PCs on
the LAN just fine. The error message is generic, " The client could not
connect to the remote computer. Remote connections might not be
enabled....etc"
Thanks!
