gnome-remote-desktop not working

Hi,

At the time of Gnome 42 or 43 I've enabled gnome-remote-desktop and tested this. Back then it worked flawlessly. Ever since I've had no need for it until now. Only it stopped working, while I've make no changes to it that I'm aware of. There's no real error message from the Windows Remote Desktop client, it just seems to be unable to connect. A PING to the same IP address is working.

When I review all settings in gnome-control-center it seems to be correct.

To be sure I've executed the equivalent commands:

Public and private key were already present in:
~/.local/share/gnome-remote-desktop

$ grdctl rdp set-tls-key ~/.local/share/gnome-remote-desktop/rdp-tls.key
$ grdctl rdp set-tls-cert ~/.local/share/gnome-remote-desktop/rdp-tls.crt
$ grdctl rdp set-credentials # Enter credentials via standard input
$ grdctl rdp enable

$ grdctl rdp disable-view-only

$ systemctl --user enable gnome-remote-desktop.service
$ systemctl --user start gnome-remote-desktop.service
$ systemctl --user status gnome-remote-desktop.service

No errors were shown in the status output.

I'm using FirewallD and used following commands for port forwarding:

$ sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=rdp
$ sudo firewall-cmd --reload

The output of "netstat" is not showing port 3389. This is probably the root cause, but I'm not sure why because the daemon is running.

Does anyone have any idea what might be going on?

Thanks in advance!
