Tigermatt is correct, if you arn't putting in the domain name it could be giving you the issues.

I have been killing myself over the weekend for this ridiculous issue. I had no idea. You actually have to put your complete domain including the .local<br />
Thanks for all your help

I just did a clean install of server 2008 x64 bit version. I installed 10 Terminal Services licenses. When I try to connect to the server via Remote Desktop I get an error that says incorrect username and password. I know for sure that the username and password is correct. I have tried disabling the firewall, logging in as administrator through rdp, but still no luck. I have also tried from other computers with the same result. I am not too familiar with Server 2008, but I assumed Terminal services would work since it is straight out of the box.
