    I run a UMBP @ home and also have a work laptop connected to my LAN. I want to remote into my work laptop from my UMBP, but I am having trouble doing so.

    My work laptop has joint to the company domain and has Group Policy applied. However I made sure all the remote desktop firewall rules are open and I still can't remote into it. Work laptop is running Win7.

    My dad's pc is also a Win7 and I can remote into just fine. Can anyone point out to me what settings I may need to set to get this working?

    I prefer to use TeamViewer for remote access, which works with Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Ubuntu, iPhone, iPad, etc. It's extremely simple to set up.
