Errors connecting to RT remote panel

I am running into a problem connecting to a remote panel on my RT target. The vi I am trying to access is included in the startup.rtexe executable, and I can verify its operation with the execution trace tool. However, when I try to open a remote panel connection from the host machine, I get a variety of errors, including 66 (connection closed by peer) and 63 (connection refused by server).
 
I have configured the vi in question to allow access to all machines (using * wildcard), and also (just in case) included access for the specific IP address of the host. I have tried several different port numbers, including 80, 3363, and 50000, since I seem to find conflicting advice on what ports are to be used for TCP/IP communication. I have even tried enabling web server access, although I don't think I should need to. All to no avail. I'm probably just leaving out one crucial little parameter, but I can't seem to figure it out.
 
Any suggestions?

I had a similar experience.

When i did a build and deploy on the a Start_up.vi i could see the front panel, but when I ran my application(Host) it did not open the front panel of my RT_applicaiton(RTEXE).

It appears that RTEXE type   do not provide Front Panel as VI type . Even the Web Publish does not update.

You can alway "see" if your application is running via a Network Type Shared Variables linking your Host and RT application.

Hi TwoCentsHappy,

A LabVIEW realtime application should be programmed as though it doesn't have a front panel. You can create remote front panels for your RT application to see if your application is running. Here is a link  that gives you the instructions on creating remote front panels.

Good luck!

Correct to my previous reply
 
You "can" see the Front Panel of the RT RTEXE application on the Host computer.
I had the RTEXE launch at startup via the ni-rt.ini.
 
Thank you
