Lsremote into windows 7 PC in a workgroup

[mvplee]

I'm trying to remote into a windows 7 workstation that is part of a WORKGROUP. I'm trying to connect from my workstation which is XP that is part of a domain.

I've opened up the incoming port 5900 and file and print sharing on the firewall on the Win7 workstation, and I've disabled UAC.

I cannot connect to the win7 workstation. I get an 'Access is denied' error message. Is that feasible with a win7 computer in a WORKGROUP from a computer in a domain?

Does it have something to do with the win7 computer in the WORKGROUP is not aware of my domain admin credentials?

Is there a way around this?

Indeed.

I believe (not tested) that you can map a drive "c$" to the computer and then run lsremote.exe
