I've just installed terminal services on a windows 2000
sever using
add/remove programs so that we can connect remotely to
the server. The
install went fine but when I try to connect I get the
following error. I've tried connecting via IP and name. I can connect to
other servers on the same network
'The client could not connect to the remote computer'
Do I need to enable something on the server?
Thanks

Is there anything in the EventLog on the server?
Can you ping the server from the client?
Can you telnet to port 3389 on the server?
