Remote Desktop Not Working
I have a server with windows server 2003 installed. After a power failure last night RDP is no longer working.
I checked to ensure the box was checked to allow remote connections, it is, and i have permissions to access the machine.
I also tired "NET START TERMINAL SERVICES" and it says the services are running
I ran a netstat -a -b > C:\log.txt and i could not find "3389" in the file...
Any thoughts? It was working fine yesterday before the power cycle...

Well i tested the port and it is not listening on that port.
However the "terminal services" is running
I checked the registry and the port is set to 3389

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Check to be sure that the port is open in the firewall. The firewall may have been turned off before, but was set to autostart upon bootup.

I should not have to change the port, because there is nothing using that port currently as nestat -a -b has shown...
