RDP still runs on TCP Port 3389.

Connecting from Vista to XP should work in any case, unless there is a
firewall issue or the configuration of the Vista RDP client is
different - do you have a TS Gateway configured on the XP end of
things? Or are you connecting to an entry in your hosts file, which
the Vista host can't resolve?

Connecting from legacy operating systems such as XP to Vista may
require special configuration in case you have enabled network level
authentication in the Vista RDP server - you'll need the latest RDP
client vor XP (6.1) and make the necessary configuration changes to
allow XP to use NLA.
