Using the RGS Diagnostics Tool on Windows XP
After completion of a normal installation of the Windows XP Sender, the RGS Diagnostics Tool (rgdiag.exe)
automatically runs to detect potential issues (such as Windows XP firewall settings, Guest Account security
policies, RDP interoperability, and Easy Login settings) that might prevent a remote connection. If the tool detects a
problem, the dialog of Figure 3-7 is displayed, allowing you to run the tool manually. Figure 3-8 shows the output
generated by the tool.
