RDP from W11 to W11 computer fails with invalid credentials error. But credentials are correct.
Hello,
Thanks for the responses.
I eventually worked out what the issue was.
Both of the computers have been imaged (but not using sysprep).
Apparently with W11 RDP uses the computer SID, this is a change from W10.
So the resolution in my case was to use SIDCHG to change the SID.Thanks again.
Hello,
I subsequently realised that I needed to check the destination Security Event Log, rather than the client.
There are 4625 events in the Security Log. They're unusual.
- Status/Sub Status: 0xC000006D (Generic Failure)
- Account Name / Account Domain: Blank/Empty/NULL
That is, the username and password are not being transmitted.
I've tested from a 2nd computer and the behaviour is the same.
May be obvious, but worth checking that your W11 'client' has all the relevant services running (should be three of them listed in Services manager - ensure all are running.) Also check the Firewall is allowing it through.
