RDP 'ing with Windows 7 Home Premium 64

Hello,

I already tried the link below and it seems like it should have worked. I can now use RDP on that machine and call it from itself but it still doesn't work trying to reach it from another PC on the same subnet. I even saw a youtube video which show the same instructions. When i install it, all the correct listeners show up in the command prompt box. Any thing else I can try to make this work from another PC on the LAN? Really driving me nuts and a bummer that MS would try to disable this feature. Thanks!!

Bottom line is that this is not permitted by Microsoft - "hacking" windows to enable features is not permitted and Home versions do not include the capability to connect via RDP TO them.

I therefore propose selection of the first comment as the correct answer.
