Re: Trying to get Incoming Remote command to work in XP

Sorry if this is an obvious question, but...

Do you have a firewall on your WinXP machine? (WinXP comes with one built-in, and there are many, many, many third party ones available. Just about every virus scanner suite comes with it's own. I often look at people's computers, only to find that they have 3 or more firewalls running at once!)

If you have a firewall, have you configured it (or "them") to allow connections on port 512?

What command are you trying to run?

The command I am running is:
RUNRMTCMD CMD('C:\PROGRA~1\IRFANVIEW\I_VIEW32 S:\00147900000.TIF') RMTLOCNAME('xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' *IP) RMTUSER('SCANS') RMTPWD(AllUpperCase)

The RMTLOCNAME = a real IP address
The RMTPWD = a real password
Please remember, this is running fine in Win '98.

Thank you,
