[AccessD] OT Remote Desktop Connection problems

David,

Have the IT guy log in using your credentials. It might just be a simple
thing as a security setting for the account to allow remote desktop access
which is not turned on by default. If he can't log in using your credentials
then he's got to give your account remote access permissions so that you can
RDP.

Thanks Steve,

That didn't help but it got me thinking.  Could there be a setting on 
my Windows 7 computer that might be preventing me from connecting to 
the server?
