Cannot connect to HyperV from Windows Vista Hyper-V manager


hi,

i have setup windows server 2008 enterprise x64 hyper-v role. server in datacenter.

now home office want connect hyper-v via hyper v manager windows vista sp1 (i have vista sp1 ultimate x64)

everytime try connect firsts stays 1-2 minutes @ "connecting virtual machine management service..." , says "cannot connect rpc service on hostname. make sure rpc service running"

so googled around , found known hvremote script. added user on server , user on pc exact same credentials , used hvremote script on server , on client.

tried again, nothing works.
then read need enter computer name, no ip address , workaround host file should work. still same message.

okay, firewall ? switched off windows firewall (both systems clean install no third software) , switched off firewall in router.

again, same message...

maybe is, hyper-v works within domain not workgroups ??? not sure...



hope can me. thank much!

the hyper-v manager not require domain. works fine in workgroups.
