Hi, I am sure that to use Terminal service using remote desktop client
you'll need port 3389 open on the Cisco router. But I am not sure about the
Terminal Service Advanced client (Web Client), does the web client need port
3389 opened?? Can it just work on the http port 80/ or a nominated port??? I
need to Terminal Service into the office from another company, and the only
port 80 is open and available for use..
What port does web client operate upon???

You'll need to open up port 80 to your IIS server and port 3389 to
your terminal server.
After the initial connection with the IIS server for downloading of
the Active-X component and authentication, the IIS is not part of the
session anymore, and all traffic is over rdp between your client and
the TS, using port 3389.

Can Remote desktop/ Remote Web client be configured to work on the http port
80??? Because I am behind a corporate firewall and the only port 80 is
available and open...thanks

You can change both the listening port for Terminal Services and
the port on the client. If it is a good idea to change these to
port 80, I am not sure. Note that changing the listening port for
TS will mean that *all* clients need to change port as well.
