IMac Remote Desktop into Windows Server 2003

Question

I just recently purchased an iMac. I downloaded the Remote Desktop Connection for Mac from Microsoft. Now I can connect to my work through PPTP. I get a connection.. It goes through the authentication and all that. But when I'm connected and try to remote to any computers on our network at work I can't connection nor see any of them.

Do I need to set something up on our Windows Server 2003 network in order for me to remote into them from my Mac? Or am I just doing something wrong?

Answer 1

Is RDP enabled on the remote host?  Is your PPTP connection restricted  at all?  Maybe there is an access filter on your VPN connection?  Are you really connected to the VPN, can you see, or PING, any host there?

It could be many issues...
