From asking Mr. Google I tried the proposed solution to delete some cached files, but it didn’t resolve the problem.
Microsoft RDP for Mac is now called Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac (confusingly also known as RDC for Mac or Remote Desktop for Mac). Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac is a Microsoft tool which allows you to connect your Mac to PC Windows machines and other devices. Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac. Connect to Windows PCs.
The strange thing is that to other Sservers running Windows 2008 R2 (SP1) on the same Network I can connect.
I checked the configuration on the server and noticed that under Roles -> Remote Desktop Services -> RD Session Host Configuration it says under Connection Type: “Microsoft RDP 7.1”. On other server where I can connect it says “Microsoft RDP 6.1”.
Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client For Mac Version 2.1.1
Could that be the reason?
The Mac I use has Lion 10.7.3 installed

This is a known issue. Client database app for mac. You will have to wait for the hotfix from either MS or apple. Use CORD the open source RDP client. I manage several terminal servers and some macs cannot connect. MS has acknowledged the issue.
