One of my user recently purchased a laptop with Windows XP Home Edition pre-installed. To setup some programs and other network settings, I tried to connect using my PC (client) by setting up 'Remote Desktop Sharing' on the laptop (host). Here is what's happening:

- The logon screen pops up on my PC, on enter 'Computer Administrator' account details of the laptop, the screen pops up again and after several tries, the message says 'The other party did not accept your call'

- I'd checked all the settings on the laptop with regards to the Internet Connection Firewall, User Accounts, etc.. all seems to be fine.

I'd be grateful for your help. Thanks in advance.

Regards, Sharad Sreedharan

You are accepting the call from the PC you are trying to connect to.

A dialogue box should appear asking if you want to accept the call which you have to select 'yes' or it will return a message to the other PC with the error message that you aregetting.
