THANKS To Both of you.!!!!
Here is the solution I have found in the group posting.
>> >The limitation of Windows's XP Remote Desktop client
is that it

to the localhost
>> >with the following error message: "The client could
not connect. You

computer. A new console
>> >session cannot be established". In order to be able to
tunnel this

idea was to

but it's simpler

mstsc.exe from

not exist.
>> >Drilling a bit into that, it is possible to run
mstsc.exe on Windows

with older

>> >Procedure:

XP box

systemroot%\system32

it.

network or machine

127.0.0.1:3390
