Trying to connect to my XP machine works from some
computers within my group, but some get the error:
Line:67

Error: Object doesn't support this property or

Anyone know what the problem is?

I can get the remote desktop web connection to work
inside my LAN but not outside. Whenever I try to access
using "http://mycomputer/tsweb", I get the "page cannot
be displayed" message.

I have forwarded the ports 80 and 3389 on my Netgear RP
114 router. I have not specified a default DMZ server.

Inside the LAN, all works fine. Any hints?
Thanx,
Harry.....

What IP address are you specifying? Are you sure it is correct?
Any chance the ISP is blocking port 80?
(And, once you DO get the page, remember NOT to put anything in the address
box when connecting across the Internet--just the opposite of what you do
when connecting locally.)

Try forwarding port 500 on your RD server, used by
Internet Key Exchange service. On your PC, search for IKE
under help for more info. The XP firewall leaves 500 open
by default.

I have an XP machine at work and an XP machine at home.
The machine at work is on a network run via a Zyxel
router (Prestige 642)The home machine is on a direct ADSL
modem.

How do I get both machines to provide remote access to
each other?

David, this might make sense if he were using an IPSEC VPN, but I don't
believe that's involved in this thread.

Firstly, do not use the Web Connection--that isn't necessary for your usage,
and will complicate things and involve security issues you might not wish to
deal with.

Secondly, all the machines involved must be XP Pro, rather than XP Home
edition.

In the Zyxel router at work, you will need to find instructions to open port
3389, TCP and forward traffic to the XP Pro machine in question.

At home, you'll need to go to properties of the Internet Connection,
advanced tab, settings button, and enable Remote Desktop protocol to pass
through the Internet Connection Firewall.

You will need to know the current public IP address of both the home machine
and the Zyxel router.

It's probably best to use a VPN anyway for security
reasons with web RD as opposed to the RD client
application. In that case, the port to open is 1723 (I
succeeded without opening port 500 with XP pro). You
don't need any other ports open on the router since the
other ports will be open through the tunnel once created.
If you are running a pre-win 2000 machine for the client,
you need to download an updated vpn client to support

Bill,

When I connect thru a router, I am not clear how to
determine the correct IP address. Right now I am using my
computer name "vaspac-admin". The only other address I
can see is my router address which I don't think is not
unique.

I don't think my ISP is blocking port 80. I am using
Sympatico for my ISP which is part of Bell Canada.

Thanks for your assistance,
Harry...

Most folks who are using Web Connection are doing this because they put a
high value on the flexibility of being able to connect from most
web-browsers. Having to use a VPN first is a limitation most such users
won't accept easily.

The RD connection is encrypted with RC4 encryption and a 128 bit key
strength--the same as a PPTP VPN connection.

You need the public address acquired by the router when it connects.

One way to see this is a site such as
http://www.myipaddress.com

Thanks Bill.

I new it was going to be something obvious but it is hard
to find a good roadmap thru the Internet weeds. I had the
same kind of fun publishing my first website.

Thanks again,

Something like this is router-specific these days. Many routers have an
html interface, and perhaps a "status" page with such information in it.

The coming solution is Universal Plug n Play, which allows the OS or
software to query the router for this information in a standards-based way.

Until all routers are UPnP compliant, we'll have this issue. And, even now,
RD doesn't do this query for you--nor does it open the port automatically.

Remote Assistance does attempt to do this for you.

The router method is better if you can use it, especially if you use a
dynamic dns service as the constant pings can bring the server to its
knees...
