Can't connect to XP computer on network (192.168.1.200) via Remote Desktop Connection.
Can't connect to XP Home Edition SP3 computer on network (192.168.1.200) via Remote Desktop Connection. I have checked the standard RDP setup parameters (1. Remote access to the computer is turned on, 2. firewall is not on, 3. the computer is visible on the network). I can ping the computer on the network. I have also checked to make sure somehow the RDP port number has not been changed from 3389.
QUESTION: if XP Home does not support RDP why do they give it a RDP prot number (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\PortNumber) and is there a way to enable RDP/Remote Desktop Connection on XP Home (a hack, etc)?

Any ideas here?

I had read somewhere there is a "non documented" way to enable RDP on Win XP home (I think simply is disable by marketing needs) and this causes you can see this registry entry.
