VNC won't connect after using Remote Desktop

Asked by sqstultz in VNC Remote Access Software, Remote Desktop/Terminal Services

Tags: Microsoft, Remote Desktop (Server), Unknown, VNC after using Remote Desktop

I have a problem establishing a remote session with UltraVNC to my office computer AFTER using Remote Desktop just once.  Once I connect to my office computer using Remote Desktop from a remote location, it will no longer accept inbound VNC connections (error is "Failed to connect to server").  If I reboot my office computer, it will once again accept inbound VNC connections, until I connect to it just once using Remote Desktop Client... then the same problem occurs again:  Inbound VNC connections will not connect.

Depending on where I am remotely at any given time, I find it useful to use VNC from some locations, and RDS client from other locations, hence the need for both.

I don't think it's a VNC issue, because I have client workstations set up to accept both inbound VNC and inbound Remote Desktop connections without this problem, using the same version of UltraVNC, v1.0.2.

It doesn't matter from where I connect, the above mentioned problem is always present.  Any ideas?

Host computer UltraVNC version: 1.0.2
Host computer OS: Windows XP Pro (fully patched)
