Unable to connect to server using MSTSC.EXE since 'High Priority' server
updates installed

Server: Dell PE 2600 Win2k3 SP2, stand-alone

I recently installed the four 'High Priority' updates on this server. The
updates were installed remotely from another PC on my network, using
MSTSC.EXE. The updates installed successfully and then requested a reboot,
which was done.

Since the reboot, I can not connect to the server using MSTSC.EXE. I get the
following error dialog:

http://orion.neiu.edu/~jbollyn/servers/mstsc_rwlib_err.jpg

I have tried connecting remotely from several different PCs, same result
everywhere. Everything in the win2k3 Event Logs is normal. I have tried
logging on with a different Administrator account, same result.

I can log on to the server console just fine.

The System Properties -> Remote (tab) -> Remote Desktop -> Enable Remote
Desktop on this computer (checkbox) is still checked.

Also, the Windows Firewall/ICS service is not running on this server.

Any idea how to fix this?

Have you tried pinging the server, also try telnet SERVER 3389 at the
run or cmd prompt to see if you even get a response on that port.
