Unable to RDP to Main Server Internally Only

I am going crazy here.
I am unable to mstsc to the private IP of main server when I am locally on the lan.
If I mstsc to public IP address, I can log on to the server

I can mstsc to any computer on the LAN but the Server, I can mstsc from Server back to my laptop

Any questions please ask, I have never dealt with this, remote assistanct/rdp is turned on.
Thanks to anyone who responds.

Thank You "The Cleaner", I will award you the points, but don't want to close the answer just yet, hoping you could possible respond to one more question.

I just went and opened port 3389 on advanced firewall, tested...works fine.

My alt question, what would have caused that? An update? Just akward that it just stopped all of a sudden, the new system has been up and running for several months.

Thanks, once again.
Not that I'm aware of (update wise).  I've got servers running R2 that have been patched completely and don't have this issue.  Possibly 3rd party software could interfere, such as Symantec or other A/V products, but they typically don't change the Windows Firewall rules themselves.
