TSAC Server/Client Port number change????

[Martin O'Leary]

Hi I am looking to change the port number that the
terminal services advanced client connects to. I have
found an article on how to change the port number for
what Terminal Services listens on. Although I read in an
MS article the following (NOTE: The Terminal Server
ActiveX client listens on TCP port 3389 and this cannot
be changed). So If I changed the port number that TS
listens on then ActiveX TSAC would not work? Correct?
There must be a way to do this. I read another article
saying go into the tsweb folder under your wwwroot and
edit the connect.asp. Then add the following line
MsTsc.AdvancedSettings2.RDPort = 55000 or what ever port
you want. This was related to an ISA server article so
might not apply. Any help would be most appeciated.

Thanks

Ok this is our situation. We have a doctor that needs to
be able to connect to his office using TSAC. The
computers in the hospital can not have any software
installed on them or have any settings changed. We did
not want to have port 3389 open on the doctors firewall
and wanted to change the listening port that would be
open on the firewall. The office is not running ISA and
is running a Negear firewall. All the doctor from the
hospital can do is use a web browser. Is there a way to
connect to the published Terminal Services Web access on
a different port number using a URL
(www.terminalservices.com:55500). So far I have have not
found anything.

Thanks for your help.
