Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection allows you to access a Windows computer from a different location as if you were sitting in front of it. Remote Desktop Connection comes pre-installed on Windows 10 and Windows 11, and is available for free through the iOS and Mac App Store. You can also use this method to connect to a remote computer through the EWA Remote Desktop Gateway. Enable Remote DesktopTo set up the computer to which you would like to connect:

I moved this for you to Networking and Remote Desktop instead of Spiceworks Support. Have you checked your firewall settings? Have you checked your DNS settings, hosts or lmhosts.sam files for erroneous entries for that hostname or try to add the hostname to hosts/lmhosts.sam to force the computer to point to the correct IP address. Is the VM setup for a Static IP or Dynamic? Is there a DHCP reservation for that VM on the DHCP server? What VM environment and version are you using?
I have checked the Firewall settings and its fine. DNS is fine, i have checked LMHOSTS is fine its enabled and its default. IP already added. VM have dynamic IP and its reserved in DHCP. Windows 2012 we are using.
I assume an nslookup of the hostname returns the IP address correctly? Sorry, just trying to rule out the basics. I know you said you've got the IP in your hosts file, but I'm not 100% certain RDP actually uses your hosts file.
Also, try to work out what's different with the VM that doesn't work compared to the others that do.
Is the VM on the domain? This is clearly a DNS issue, check you have the correct name on the domain and in DNS.
Hi Team, Issue is resolved after re-joining the domain and restarted the VM. |
