Remote Desktop Web Connection

[Guest]

I have a PC at home running Server 2003. I have 2 clients connected to it.
Can I use "Remote Desktop Web Connection" to connect to any of them??

Hi,

Couple of ways.
1. Create a port forwarding rule on your router to send port 80 HTTP TCP to
your 2003 Server. (Install RWC on the server of course).
Then from remote machine browse to http://your-wan-ip/tsweb
Then login using local server name and User/Pass.
Then RDP from Server to client desktops. (Double hop scenario).

2. Create a port forwarding rule on your router to send port 3389 to your
server and just Remote Desktop to that. Then remote as above to clients.

3. Assign client RDP ports to other than 3389 - (this is messy). Port
forward to each client on router for selected port.

4. Use VNC open port 5900 on your server 5901 on client 1 and 5902 on
client. NOT secure. Port forward on router.

5. Install RRAS and set up a MS VPN on your server. Open port 1723 and send
it to your server. Now you access from remote machine to your home subnet by
creating a network connection "to my workplace" / VPN.

Hope that helps.

Greetings
Great Response, lets address sugguesstions 1,2 & 3. (I have no experience
with 4 & 5)
Suggestion 1. This already works. I have RWC on both machines, and have
different port numbers assigned to each with a rule for each in the router.
Suggestion 2&3. For the client I have a different RDP port assigned and
forwarded in router (wasn't to messy). This also means that I can use "Remote
Desktop" to get to any machine.
Here's whats happening. When I type
http://your-wan-ip:port-number-for-client-or-server/tsweb/ I get to the RWC
home page,
BUT from there I can only get to the sever. Should you be able to put in a
client name and then get to that client??
WAG (wild ass guess) do you think I alway default to the server because it
is still assigned 3389??
