Non-standard RDP connection port.
One possible problem with the connection is using a non-standard RDP port on the remote Windows server.
If you can connect to a remote server via IPMI or other remote connection means, you can check which port the RDP uses.
To do this, you need to do the following:
Open the editor (regedit.exe) and go to the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
System\
CurrentControlSet\
Control\
Terminal Server\
WinStations\
RDP-Tcp;
Find the parameter named PortNumber. This specifies the port for the RDP connection. (The default port is 3389)
If the remote server uses a non-standard port, you will need to specify the IP and port when connecting.
Example: 1.1.1.1:448
In case you cannot connect to the remote server, you can use the Nmap utility to determine the port to connect to.
Linux:
nmap -Pn IP-server
Windows:
Nmap can also be used for WIndows.
For more information about installation, and how to use it, visit https://nmap.org/book/inst-windows.html.
In order to change the port to standard or non-standard, you need to go through the steps specified in section 1, only now open the PortNumber parameter, select Decimal, and specify the port.
Note: If you use a non-standard port, you will need to open the port you specify in PortNumber. This can be done in the Windows Firewall settings.
