I have been unsuccessful getting VRDP working against a windows XP Home (Service Pack 3) guest. I would appreciate any advice about how to get this working.
One thing that I have not seen answered is this: Windows RDP server capabilities are not supported on XP Home (only on XP Pro). Does VirtualBox VRDP server work with XP Home?
I am running VirtualBox 4.0.8 on Mac OS X Snow Leopard. I have installed the extension pack as instructed in the user manual.
Thank You
VRDP with Windows XP Home Guest?

Re: VRDP with Windows XP Home Guest?
VRDP runs on the Host side. The Guest doesn't matter. So when using VRDP, connect to the Host IP, not the Guest IP.
