I have win xp Pro and I wanted to try Remote Desktop without any Programs.
Now before I start I want to let anyone that can help me know that I know there is all these Programs and even FREE Programs that will make this a whole lot fater and may work batter.
But I am trying to do this without anything but the Operating Systems on both computers.
Now me an my Aunt both have DSL and we both have Verizon Internet an we both have win xp pro.
So what I had her do was go into her Windows Firewall and Under the Acaptions Tab I had her put a Checkmark in Remote Desktop and Allow Remote Assistance.
Then I had her Right click on her My Computer Icon and go into Propeties and then Click on the Remote Tab and put a checkmark in Allow Remote.
Then I had her go into the DOS window and type
ipconfig
And this brings up all the specs I need. So I just had her read to me the Line that says ip adress and I had her give me the string of numbers.
Now when I bring up my Remote Connection Window the one in Accesorys the Connection box I type in her ip address numbers with the DOTs then I whent to Options and I put a checkmark in the Box that say allow Hard Drive Use.
I go to click on the connect Tab and a window comes up that says.
You Cannot Connect To The Computer.
Now everything I read and every Video I look at on YouTube tells me to do just these things and nothing more.
What am I not doing???????
