asked on Remote desktop Connection on several computers in a network
I have several computers in my network and I would like to be able to use Remote Desktop Connection to connect to each of them. I have have setup up RDC to run on each of them however, when I try to connect to any of them I can only connect to one of them. I use DYN to simulate a static IP and if I use compX.mydyn.dynXXX.biz I get the same computer as compY.mydyn.dynxxx.biz. In other word it does not seem to matter which computer I try to connect to I still get the same one. I have also set my router to point the ports to the various computers on my network. I have tightVNC working just fine but I would like to lighten up the active programs on my system
My network is peer to peer based as opposed to domain based.
Thank you for any help you can send my way. I know I must be missing a step here somewhere.

So as I understand you have few computers configured for RDP and they are connected to internet via a router with only one external IP and each of your computer is set to register to some dynamic DNS service.
The problem is all your computers will have same external IP so they will register with single IP and since your router is configured to connect to pool of computer for port RDP port (3389) it can go to only one computer.
You need to configure different RDP port on each computer and configure your router to forward each port to corresponding computer.
