    I can use RDP and login to my computer from a remote host and it works. I have sorted out the Router and Software Firewall to allow port 3389.

    From my machine when I send someone an invite it comes up with the following error message

    "remote assistance connection could not be established because the remote host name could not be resolved "


    Any wisdom would be appreciated.
