Click the Apple icon > System Preferences, then click the Sharing icon.Ģ. Once bugs like this get identified developers can issue patches, which still requires a user to ensure those security updates get installed or they’ve turned on auto-updates for security patches. Security researchers actually discovered a vulnerability in Apple computers for enterprise companies that allowed them to remotely hack a brand new Mac the first time it connected to Wi-Fi.

What is interesting when I connect to Windows Server 2019 Standard via RDP it works fine both via external IP and via VPN intranet IP. I was trying to fix that by disabling temporarily the Windows Defender Firewall completely and disabling the Antivirus protection, but it did not change anything.ĭid anyone face similar problems and perhaps found any solution?Īny clue why via VPN the RDP works seamlessly and using external IP it constantly tries to reconnect?

It is surely no connection issue as VPN adds some overhead and the RDP works fine while direct RDP protocol via external IP has some problems causing reconnection issues. When I connect via VPN and then via RDP using local IP (intranet IP of the RDP client) the connection works fine without reconnecting. When I try to connect to Windows 10 client from Mac via RDP via external IP address the client connects, I can enter the user password for login and as soon as the desktop shows up it freezes and soon after gray reconnecting screen appears, after reconnecting few seconds elapse and again the same scenario.
