HELLO EVERYONE.. I HAVE THE ANSWER!!! After further review (and a lot of trial/error).. In Control panel/Windows Firewall: Exception tab: Enable Remote Desktop. In Advanced: Enable Local area connection, then select 'Settings'. Enable Remote Desktop, and also, enable HTTP. (Http will allow you to web interface a remote desktop, but must be enabled elsewhere if you wish to use this feature.. neat!) Drop me an e-mail if you want to use web remote desktop. WORKS GREAT!! cbudach@yahoo.com
