Home Setup:
2 x WinXP Pro PC's
1 x WinVista Laptop
1 x Ubuntu PC
1 x Win7 PC
WRT54G (All machines IP addresses are set statically)
For some reason I am unable to get RDP to work on a Win7 PC when trying to connect from XP/Vista using the Netbios name or the IP address on the Win7 PC. For troubleshooting I have turned off the Windows firewall and enabled every single inbound connection rule with no luck. I have tried the home network and work network setup. Win7 PC is pingable by PC name and the static IP address I have assigned it. Folder sharing on the Win7 PC works flawlessly. I know this doesn't matter since I am trying to RDP within my home network but I even port forwarded 3389 on my router to the IP address I assigned WIN7. I am able to use outbound RDP on the Win7 PC to connect to my XP or Vista machines. Any help would be greately appraciated.
