Remote Web from home to office LAN

[Dave]

Hi all..

I want to connect from home to differnet PC's on the office LAN using remote
web connection.
The office LAN is small and configured as a WORKGROUP.
We have a static IP address for the company and each PC has static IP
addresses internally.
I have set several of the office machines up for RWC. At home I can connect
to only one of these machines and it works well.
My question is - how can I connect to one of the other machines. ?
If I can connect to 192168.0.100 (for eg.) - how do I connect to
192.168.0.120 ??
Each work PC has only one user configured with a password and I think I have
set them and the router up correctly.

If someone is doing this successfully - I wouln't mind knowing the solution
!
Cheers.

DAve

The router needs to forward the requests properly to the machine you want.
You can either havea request on the router of 4000 map to 3389 on one of the
other machines (other than the one that is 3389->3389) or you can change the
listening ports on each of the machines in question.. So that each one
listens on a port other than the default (3389) and different than the rest
and the router forwards each one accordingly..

PC1 listens on port 3389 and the port(3389) is forwarded through to it.
PC2 listens on port 3390 and the port(3390) is forwarded through to it.

Then when you connect to one that is not default, add a ORT afterwards..

pc2:3390

Thanks for the speedy reply..
I'll give it a whirl.. But....

If I change tie listensing port do I change from the default 3389 in the
registry? if so which key?

Thanks
Dave

Thanks for the links....
Re-configured everything and it all works flawlessly! Everyone is impressed.
One observation - or should I say question.
Copy and paste (clipborad sharing) between client and host does not work.
Is this possible?
Many thanks
Dave

Copy/Paste *should* be working (clipboard/text). I remember vaguely others
mentioning that in the newsgroups. I would have searched - but in bit of a
hurry this morning.. Do a Google Groups search for "Remote Desktop Cut and
Paste".
