<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am trying to access a share on a workgroup-joined client from inside a remote desktop server session. This work fine from other servers in the domain, but when we try the operation on the remote desktop server the username/password dialog box just keeps poping up. I have even tried disableing the windows firewall on the remote desktop server. i can ping the client from all servers.<br />
What am i missing here?<br />

A desktop computer is a personal computer designed for use at a single location due to its size and power requirements, usually by one person. The most common configuration has a case that houses the power supply, motherboard, disk storage (usually one or more hard disk drives and optical disc drives); a keyboard and mouse for input; and computer monitor and printer for output. The case may be oriented horizontally and placed atop a desk or vertically and placed underneath or beside a desk.
