Hello,

I can rdp to an XP PC from the server in an sbs2008 domain. When I establish a connection from a remote location using Zywall ipsec vpn client, I can rdp to the server when the vpn tunnel is open. However, I cannot rdp to the XP PC. Can ping the PC when the vpm tunnel is open.
Why can I rdp to the pc from the lan, but not from a remote location?
 
Is the built-in Windows XP firewall on?

If so, have you checked if there is some XP firewall setting blocking your VPN IP Range?

Try to disconnect the XP firewall to test.
