I think with RDP you need to have a login and password on the network server iirc. But there are registry entries you can put into auto login.

Port 3389 i think is the port needed. So check your firewalls.

You need to set the server up to allow RDP conections, which is in the propoties of My Computer.

Use the IP address of the server when trying to connect and all should be fine
 
What exactly is the problem you are having? Not connecting at all? Error messages?

basicly it wont connect and comes up with a message saying its unable to connect
