Remote Desktop from Vista to W2K Server

I try with Vista Business to make a remote desktop connection to a Windows
2000 Server with a VPN connection.

I can connect to the VPN without any problem. I can see and ping all other
computer on my network.

But when I try to connect to my Windows Server 2000 with Remote Desktop
Connection, I receive the following error : " This computer can't connect to
the remote computer, try connecting again..."

A strange thing, when I use Windows XP I have no problem to connect on my
server. The bug appear only with Vista with a VPN Connection.

Any help are welcome,

Thank, Sylvain.

How is the Vista Remote Desktop client configured when trying to connect to
the W2K server? It should be like this...
