Hello - I want to access my home windows machine from my remote mac. I created the network and set up the users as noted here: Create a Network | ZeroTier Documentation. However, when trying to connect using Windows RDP, it will not connect. Pinging works. What am I missing? Thank you
In windows you have to allow incoming RDP connections. Since ZT is setting up a new network, your windows firewall needs holes poked for this purpose. Windows firewall has given me so many problems the last year I have started moving everything I can to Linux. FAR less administration effort, far fewer problems to deal with. I used to think Windows was nice because everything “just worked”, but it really isn’t so anymore. Good luck with your windows client.
Thank you for the note. I currently connect to this windows computer using RDP from my Mac across the same network, so allowing incoming RDP connections is already allowed. Any other ideas? Thank you.
They are separate network adapters, separate networks, and (sort of) separate firewalls, so your windows firewall needs holes poked for the new network, too. Even past that, RDC will probably see the same Mac as a different machine than has connected before, refusing the connection until you accept the new sig/hash…
