Cannot RDP to 2003 Server
New Client with 2003 Server 32bit all patches applied
Under Remote I removed and then re-applied Administrators, domain admins and local admin.
I cannot RDP to server from any desktop, the error I receive is that either the computer is not up or Remote Access is not enabled.
I rebooted all computers Same thing.
I flushed out DNS and even Installed Wins and pointed all desktops to wins server....Still no RDP
Please Help.

Make sure the firewall settings on both server and computers allow remote access.
What is the OS of the computers?
Can you ping by FQDN ?

Hi,
I would verify the Remote Access is in fact enabled, then I would make sure the firewall is set to allow RDP connections through.

also sounds like firewall to me, temporally disable the local firewall, on the Server Internal NIC and test.
RDP uses port 3389 but can be changed so confirm that the port is correct if you didn't set the server up.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ CurrentCon trolSet\Co ntrol\Term inal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp -- "PortNumber" 00000D3D (3389)

Found out that this is a Small Business Server and it is telling me I cannot do anything with the Firewall becuase something else is using "ipnat.sys"
How do I get around this?
