Windows XP SP2 and Remote Desktop Connections

Bit more detail for you..

I'm using an Broadband Internet connection secured by Microsoft ISA

Server. RD connections via VPN worked prior to installing SP2 on my

machine and nothing else has changed to the config on my machine. I

support many of our customers remotely by connecting to their networks

via VPN then using RD to connect to their servers, so this is becoming a

nightmare as you can imagine!

Any help would be gratefully received!!

Sorry, a bit more information for you. Once I have created the connection I
can communicate with the remote network, I can ping the servers I'm trying
to connect to, I can even create secure channel connection to the servers
i.e \\servername\ipc$ /user:domain\user password and connect to resources on
that server, but not the RD!!

Hope this gives you a bit more of an idea because it's baffling me little
old brain!!

Cheers

Ian
