I've got ANT running on here, and have had no problems at all with it
and RDP. It is possible that you're running it after you've got the LAN
set up and TCP/IP implemented by another app. In that case, ANT will
normally trash your TCP/IP settings in favour of those it wants to use.
If you just use the ANT Suite you should have no problems at all.
Failing that, there are ways of loading the Suite to retain an address
set by another method.

Cheers
