Re: Help - Cannot connect to TS or VNC thru SSH

I have VNC Server and TS Server on the same WinXP Machine(Server). I would just like to get one working, preferably TS. I have AllowLoopBack with a value of 0x1 on the Server.

Are you running VNC server and ssh server on the same machine?

If yes, than have a look at http://www.realvnc.com/winvnc.html,
searching for "AllowLoopback".

Description: By default, WinVNC does not allow connecting from one machine
to itself. If it would be allowed, weird things happen (check it our
yourself: Do "AllowLoopback" and connect locally. If you're good and
fast, you will be able to stop the opening window-in-the-window, if not,
you will have to do a hard reset)

I don't know TS, but there might be the same issue.

HTH,
Spiro.
