One way remote desktop connection

Hi,

I have 2 boxes both running Windows XP and the same service pack (I think Sp4)

I can initiatie a RDP connection from box-A to box-B and work perfectly.

However I cannot initiate a RDP connection from box-B to box-A.
(Get an error: Remote desktop connection could not be established)

Any clues?

PS: I had submitted an exactly similar problem about a year ago on these
forums. The solution that had been posted was to look through the event
viewer and then follow some steps defined in the KnowledgeBase article.
I am unable to locate both - my post nor the KB article so posting my query
again.

Can you telnet port 3389 from B to A?
