Remote Desktop

Trying to get Remote Desktop to work.
I have done this on another similar setup, however, on a new pair of PCs I
cannot get a connection.
Both PCs see each other and are in the same Workgroup.
I can see all computers in the Map Network Drive Browse.
I can map folders from one to the other.
I have copied files from one PC to the other.
I can print from one PC to a printer on the other PC.
PCs are tied together (on the same side) through a 100 Mbps Router.
I have enabled Remote Desktop on the "remote" PC.
I am entering the User Name and Password that I use on the Remote PC.
I am the Admin on both PCs.
What setting(s) may I be missing?

Do you have the firewall in WinXP turned on? If so, make an exception rule
for RDP/Terminal Services port 3389.

Also make sure the user that you're trying to login in as has a password
assigned. Otherwise you wont be able to login.
