c# - MSMQ remote private queue on Windows server 2012

Question

I have private, non-transactional queue configured on my remote Windows Server 2012.

I wrote quick c# console application to test it. It places messages to the local private queue on my local PC.

It also works properly, while running on remote server - messages lands in the queue. But I cannot make it to send messages from local PC to remote queue. In the opposite way its also not working. I checked inbound rules and enabled Remote Event Monitor (RPC) and Remote Event Monitor (RPC-EPMAP) but my messages are still in outbound queue with state Waiting to connect and message Failed to connect Winsock socket Ip: XX.XX.XX.XX

I have also tried registry adjustments:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMSMQParametersSecurityNewRemoteReadServerAllowNoneSecurityClient as 1,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMSMQParametersSecurityAllowNonauthenticatedRPC as 1

Used queue path: FormatName:Direct=TCP:XX.XX.XX.XX\private$\name-of-queue

Could someone please help me with that? Many thanks.
