Hoe te opstellings Verre Desktop op Vensters XP

Gepost op 26 Maart, 2007 in 8:18 p.m.

Vandaag is de dag van het computeruiteinde! Als u nooit Verre Desktop hebt gebruikt, is het een werkelijk grote manier om met een andere PC (bureau, huis, enz.) te verbinden ver en het werk gedaan te krijgen dat u anders niet kon gedaan worden. Ik gebruik uit routine verre Desktop om met servers op ons kantoor te verbinden, verbind met de computers van de gebruiker om technologiesteun te verlenen, en met mijn personal computer thuis aan toegangsdossiers te verbinden.

om Verre Desktop te gebruiken, zijn er een paar dingen u moet begrijpen. Eerst van, werkt de verre Desktop slechts met Vensters XP en Vensters 2003. Wat ik door dit bedoel is dat u slechts MET een Venster XP of de machine van 2003 kunt verbinden. U kunt Vensters 98, ME, of 2000 gebruiken om MET Vensters XP of de machine van 2003 aan te sluiten, maar u kunt MET 98, ME of van 2000 machine ver aansluiten niet. Als u aan Vensters 2000 of vroegere machine wilt kunnen aansluiten, zult u commerical software moeten kopen.

Ten tweede, moet u ervoor zorgen dat u als computerbeheerder op de machine het programma wordt geopend om het voor verre toegang op te zetten. Als u een computer van een opslag bracht of het rechtstreeks van de fabrikant werd, is de eerste gebruikersnaam u cre�ërt altijd een rekening van de Beheerder.

Een gemakkelijke manier om te controleren al dan niet u een Administraor bent is te gaan beginnen en, het Comité van de Controle dan voor de Rekeningen van de Gebruiker klikken. U zult uw gebruikersnaam zien en het zou moeten hebben „Beheerders“ of „De Beheerder van de computer“ geschreven naast het.

Ten derde, moet de beheerderrekening op uw machine een wachtwoord hebben. Als u niet in een wachtwoord moet typen om tot Vensters toegang te hebben wanneer u uw computer opstart, dan hebt u geen wachtwoord opzetten en de Verre Desktop zal niet werken. De verre Desktop staat u niet toe om met een computer met een gebruikersnaam te verbinden die geen wachtwoord heeft.

Wanneer u naar de Rekeningen van de Gebruiker gaat, zult u een optie zien om een wachtwoord voor de rekening tot stand te brengen. Ga door en doe dat.

Daarna, als de computer u verbindt met SP2 van Vensters XP (die het het waarschijnlijkst) zal zijn in werking stelt, dan moet u de firewall openen om verre Desktopverbindingen toe te staan. Dit doen, ga aan Begin, Het Comité van de controle, De Firewall van vensters en klik op Uitzonderingen tabel.

Zorg ervoor dat Verre checkbox van de Desktop wordt gecontroleerd. Me maak niet ongerust over hoe het mijn scherm eruit ziet, maakt het deel uit van een collectief netwerk. U zou een minder ingangen moeten hebben en één van hen zou Verre Desktop moeten zijn. De controle het en klikt dan O.K.

The last thing that needs to be done in order for Remote Desktop to work correctly is to tell Windows that we want to allow users to connect. So far we’ve just fulfilled the requirements, but now we have to actually allow remote desktop connections to this computer.

Go to Start, Control Panel, and click on System. Click on the Remote tab and make sure that the “Allows users to connect remotely to this computer” is checked.

And that’s it! Your computer is now setup to connect to! First try connecting to the computer while on the same network…as in if you are at home, try connecting to the computer from another computer on your home network. In order to connect, go to the other computer and click on Start, All programs, Accessories, Communications, and Remote Desktop Connection.

In the dialog box, you can type in the IP address or the name of the computer. The best way to connect is to type in the IP address of the computer. In order to get the IP address of the computer you want to connect to, go to the computer and click on Start, Run and type in CMD.

In the black command window, type in the word “ipconfig” without the quotes as shown below and press Enter.

You’ll see your IP address listed along with some other info, but you don’t need to worry about that. Write down that IP address (192.x.x.x or something similar) and type that number exactly into the remote desktop text box on the other computer (the computer you are connecting from).

Click Connect and you should get a login screen pop up, which means you have successfully connected to the other computer. You can now enter the Computer Administrator user name and password.

If you get an error saying that computer cannot accept new connections, etc. that means something was not configured correctly. Remember you need to give the administrator account a password, open the port in the firewall, and check the allow remote connections checkbox in the System properties. All of these three things you need to do on the computer you want to connect TO.

Once you are able to connect from within the same network, now you can try to connect from the outside. So if you want to connect to your home computer from the office, you can do that, but you’ll have to do a few extra things.

First, you have to get your public IP Address (not the 192.168.x.x number) and you can do this by going to the computer you want to connect in to and navigating to the web site http://www.whatismyip.com/ and this will give you your public ip address. This is the address that can be used from anywhere in the world to connect to your specific location and is unique.

The second thing you have to do is open the port in your router (unless you’re connecting your cable modem directly into your computer) and forward that port to the computer you want to connect to. Here’s how you would do this on a Netgear router (as I have that) and is pretty much the same for other routers. Most manufacturer’s web sites have an article on how to configure their particular router for remote desktop since it’s very common.

You’ll need to log into your router by typing it’s IP address into the IE address bar. You can figure out the IP address of your router by going to any computer on your network (that you want to connect into) and opening the command prompt like we did above and typing ipconfig again. In addition to the IP Address field, you’ll also see Default Gateway, this is your router.

Type that address into your IE address bar as follows and press Enter:

You’ll most likely be prompted for a user name and password. Usually, you can find this in the documetation or on the under side of the router itself. For my Netgear router, the username as “admin” (lowercase) and the password was “password”.

Once you’re in, you should see an option called “Port Fowarding/Port Triggering” or something very similiar. I knew Netopia calls these “Pinholes” and on Linksys it might be called a “Service”.

Once you’re on the Port page, choose Port Triggering (if you see Remote Desktop in the list of services, you can choose that instead, but it may not be there). Now we’ll add the service for Remote Desktop. Click Add Service.

The next part may look hard, but it’s not really too bad once you understand what everything does. The service name can be anything, so type in “RemoteDesktop“. For the Service User, you can choose Any or Single Address. We want to choose single address because we want to connect into just one computer. Type in the IP address of your computer into the space provided. Again, that is what we already got earlier from the ipconfig command.

For the service type, choose TCP protocol. Now for “Triggering Port, Starting Port, and Ending Port” put in 3389. Port 3389 is the port Windows uses to connect using remote desktop.

Click Apply and you’re done! You should now be able to use your public IP address (type this into the “Computer” textbox in the Remote Desktop software) to connect through your router to your computer!

Please let me know if something is wrong or if it did not work for you! Thanks!
