Can you ping the RDC host PC from another local PC?
If not then something on the RDC host PC is blocking incoming RDC requests.
I presume your calling the correct LAN IP address.

Ok, well i tryed the telnet thing and it did not work.
I also have a port scanner on my computer that i used to scan the ports but
for some reason when i try to scan 3389 it says its not open. But i open up
windows firewall and it shows that it is open.
Help?
