RD working but RD web connnection not

Dec 11, 2003 5:54AM PST

My remote desktop on my xp pro box works with the installed client but when I try to access it through a web browser (IE6) the connect page loads but the "Connect" button is inactive (wont click, acts like regular text on the page). Any idea whats up, I was thinking there might be an ActiveX setting thats wrong but I went through the settings and nothing jumped out at me.

Its set up and configured properly on the server side. I can use the remote desktop web connection from a few windows xp machines I've tried but cant get it to work with a few others and no macs that Ive tried.
