Unfortunately I'm unable to connect remotely to my WinXP VM. I've set it us as follows:
In VirtualBox I've enabled the RDP server using Display > Remote Display > Enable server, using the default settings (port 3389 etc), and started the WinXP VM. On the Win10 machine I'm using Windows Remote Desktop Connection, and have tried entering [ubuntumachinename]:3389 and [ubuntumachineIP]:3389 but always receive the message 'This computer can't connect to the remote computer'.
I can connect the to the Ubuntu machine from the Win10 machine using VNC, so it doesn't appear to be a networking problem. Also, attempting to connect the Ubuntu machine to its own VMs at 127.0.0.1:3389 using Ubuntu's remote desktop app Remmina doesn't work either.
I tried the following in case the firewall was blocking access:
sudo ufw allow 3389
And tried checking the port was open with 'netstat -ano | grep 3389' which returned:
Code: Select all
