Remote Assistance Fails on 1st Attempt

Hi All,
When I offer RA I receive an error message on the 1st attempt. When I send
the offer again, it works just fine. The event logs show two RA sessions
being started, no errors though. Any ideas on why this is happening? I've
heard this can be caused by resolution or volume license.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Let me understand the question. You are concerned that Remote Assistnce fails
to work the way you want it to, (as opposed to 'working' at all). You want to
define why the req for assistance takes two reps? It's probably a NAT issue,
having to do with your IP for an Internet connection, vs. your "local' IP
'http://whatismyip.com'
versis
start/run, type:
ipconfig

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I'd like to define why the RA offer is taking two
attempts to connect. Per event logs the ip and port (3389) is correct even on
the 1st failed attempt. This is occuring on an internal segmented network,
even occurs between workstations on the same segment/switch. Following the
2nd attempt everything works fine.

Thanks again for the reply.
