Because of a protocol error, this session will be disconnected - Win2k Terminal Services

Trying to Connect from XP Pro to Win2k Server (Fully patched) just recently we have been getting the above error.
Restarting didn't help, no errors in error logs, etc..

I haven't activated the server (its been working this way for 2+ years) but then since its in remote administration mode
I shouldn't need to. What else can I try?

Hi,

try changing your visual style back to clasic and see if this makes a difference

Nope  thats our default. Our problem differs because I don't even get a login screen at all. Just connect > immediately returns error.
Fixed by a port change/restart.
