Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Hi, Ive jusst upgraded my laptop to windows 7 ultimate and I have Snow leopard on my macbook. I've been trying to connect to my windows laptop through the RDC client for ages with no luck. Ive followed all the instructions for the firewall, settings etc on the windows laptop - still no luck.

Every time I try, I put in the computer name (LappyII) I have no user name or password so I leave them blank, nor is there a domain, BUT I always get the error;

The Mac cannot connect to the Windows-based computer.

This problem can occur if:
 � The Windows-based computer is not set up to accept remote connections.
 � The Windows-based computer is not turned on.
 � The Mac, or the Windows-based computer is experiencing network problems.

Try connecting to the Windows-based computer again, or contact your administrator.

Help!
