hi,

i hav just installed the new 'Vail' version of Home Server on a VMware virtual PC. no everything was going fine until, i tried remote access from the host of the virtual PC. I can get onto the servers page (where you type in the IP address into internet explorer and it comes up with the shared folders and PC's etc) but when i try and remote desktop into the server a i get an error saying 'your computer cannot connect to the remote computer because the Remote Desktop Gateway server address requested and the certificate subject name do not match. Contact you network administrator for assistance'

i hav googled this error but it didnt bring up much and the stuff it did bring up was all way too advanced words for me.

so please could someone help me and explain what i need to do to resolve this problem and please could i hav the solution in nice easy to understand terms :)

thanks

hi iaind thanks for that although i didnt understand any of it please could i hav that in 'noob' language :P lol thanks
 
how would i get hold of the certificate and install it? and also im trying to connect to the server by ip 192.168.x.x would this cause the error? and also internet explorer picks it up as 'Certificate Error'. another problem, when i try and connect to it using the domain i have setup, it comes up with the box to enter username and p/w but it wont accept the right ones?

thanks
 
thanks for the replies, it was because i was trying to join via IP not the address. so it is now working

thanks for the help :)
