Remote Desktop into Windows 7 using non-domain pc

[joey1211]

Hello

Not sure if it's a new security setting in Windows 7, but I cannot login to a domain controlled pc via remote desktop on a non-domain computer. Never had an issue with XP

Any ideas?

You should have still had an issue in XP, you need to prefix the username with the domain,

Example:

Domain = CONTOSO
Username = Johns

Login as CONTOSO\Johns

Hope this helps.

Arghhh... I've been using the computer name instead of the domain, all morning.

Cheers linktoinsanity. Apt username. I was getting near it

Thanks again
