Accessing TS from internet.

[Nick Page]

I hope someone can give me answewr to this as it's
driving me MAD !! I am trying to setup Terminal Services
on an IIS box so it can be administered by an external
company. The IIS box is behind an ISA server which is set
to publish the Terminal Server. When i try to connect
from a client outside the buliding i get "Terminal Server
has ended the connection", I don't even get a logon
screen. I thought it maybe to do with licenses so i have
purchased and setup Internet Connector Lics. This doesn't
seem to have made any difference to the problem. Can
anyone help me ? I understand that the Internet Connector
uses anonymous access via the TSInternetUser account , do
i need to specify that logon anyway ?

BTW The TS listener is on a non standard port if that
makes any differnce.

Have you opened the ports on the firewall for http and rdp
(whichever ports you are using for these protocols)?

Hi Vera
I am using the server publishing rules to make the TS
available to internet. I have created a new protocol
definition for the new port number and set it to inbound
with a secondary connection outbound on the same port
number. HTTP is working as the website is accessable from
internet.
