I can't start a Windows RDP session. Why?
Issue
You are trying to connect to a Windows Computer on Campus that you have set up for Remote Desktop Connection.
Reason
Due to network security reasons with regards to Windows Remote Desktop Connections; the RDP Protocol, TCP 3389 and a few other protocols are blocked from accessing machines on Campus without additional security.
To remotely log into a Windows Machine using Remote Desktop Connection with a computer outside of the Campus Network, you will need to connect using the Campus VPN software before using RDP.
