ChangeIP.com Forums

Hi there,

I use DDNS to access remote desktop. I have a machine running Homing Beacon, which appears to be working fine (the IP address it shows is correct according to whatismyip.com, and when i ping the DDNS address it shows the correct destination). I am trying to connect from another machine (from somewhere else of course) using the windows Remote Desktop client. I have set up port forwarding on the router of the PC I'm trying to get to, and I know that is functioning correctly, however when i type in the destination address (remote.#####.com) in mstsc it says "This computer can't connect to the remote computer."

Any ideas for how to fix this would be greatly appreciated

All machines are running Windows XP SP2.
