Engaged Sweeper
We have Lansweeper running on Windows 2008 Server.
All functions work including remote control.

When I use the web portal to access the Lansweeper server (http:\\lansweeper:81) remote control does not work. All other advanced actions work including screenshots, uninstall software, etc ...

The only way I can remote control a machine is from the lansweeper server.

When attempting to do this from the web link, I get the error "Cannot connect to remote computer, check firewall settings for port 5900 on client"

I know port 5900 is open as we have a group policy to add it to the exceptions.

I can't figure out why i can do all functions except remote control from the web?

anyone ?
help?

Do you see any errors in the event viewer?
Does your user have administrative permissions on the client?
