Remote VMRC wont start

Message:

I have just installed VServer 2005 (latest version from Technet). I created
the first virtual server just fine. However when I click the thumbnail to
VMRC into it, it gives me an error of "VMRC must be enabled before I can use
it" so I go to the server configuration and attempt to enable it. However
whenever I click the Enable checkbox and tell it OK, it just drops back to
the main web interface, showing the VMRC is disabled again.

Thanks for any hints.

One last question. When I launch the remote connection it now pops up the
axtive x crontroll but then in the active window it says NO CONNECTION.

How do I get to the VM so I can install the Client OS?

Sorry if this is a horrible newbie question. But I cant just open the VM
like I do in MS Virtual PC to access it.

Thanks again.

This would be like your connection string for the VMRC client:
vmrc://127.0.0.1:6900/XPHome

Where 127.0.0.1 would be the IP address of your server or the loopback like
that if you're only accessing from the server itself, and the XPHome being
whatever your VM name is, and the 6900 being whatever port you chose. Make
sure that your firewall isn't blocking the port you chose too.
