Imported 2000 server will not allow RDP connection

I imported a 2000 server guest into my ESX 3.5 server and for some reason it will not allow me to Remote Desktop into the server. This was a VMWare workstation image that I imported using the converter. I've removed terminal services from the machine then reinstalled it several times with the same results. I've re-imported the 2000 server 4 more times renamed it each time, removed it from the domain and tried it in it's own workgroup and it still won't let me RDP into it. Every other server I have running on this ESX box works fine as far as me being able to RDP into them. Thanks for any help.

I figured it out, you need to go into the terminal server configuration and change the original adapter to the VMWare adapter before it will let you RDP into it. Do I get points for figuring it out???
