Windows 8.1 remote login - 404 error RRS feed

  • Question

  • I am able to login to my WHS from any Windows 2007 machine with no issues. When I use my new Windows 8 machines (MS Surface Pro 2), the remote login page shows up and I can enter my user name and password. It looks like it logs in and it flashes my WHS home page for a brief instant. Then it redirects to a 404 - File or directory not found error.

    This is almost certainly a Windows 8 set up issue as windows 7 machines work flawlessly.  I have attempted to toggle the setting with IE to no avail.

    Any suggestions??
