I will recommend 2 more things and hope it will help you
1- Try using the IP address instead of the machine name and see if that solves the problem
2- Make sure the version of TestComplete and/or TextExecute are IDENTICAL between the master and the slave.

This may or may not be the issue - does the host machine need to have TC or TE installed just to pass the 'Verify' process on the Host tab? The remote host Im trying to verify connectivity to doesnt have either installed.
Im working with a trial license so only have one instance of TC installed.

IIRC, the verification does require either TC or TE to be on the target machine.

Ok now I have installed TestExecute on the remote host. I can connect to this host via RDP myself. I have pinged the IP of the host successfully. I have the ports set to All Ports for everything TC and TE on both the Master and Slave machines. I am still getting this Server Not Started error.
Im now suspecting a possible defect of sorts. There is no reason these two machines cant communicate.
Are there any other suggestions?
Thanks
