Hi,

Is it possible to open a terminal window when connected to the internet via
a broadband cable connection?

I am hoping to find any HTTP connections to port 80 using the command:
netstat -an | grep ESTABLISHED | grep .80

Any assistance will be appreciated.

You can establish a Terminal Server session via broadband,
provided that the host machine runs WinXP Professional
or Win2000/2003 Server. You will need to create a tunnel
for port 3389 (default) through your firewall and/or router.
 
Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply
How would I go about establishing a terminal window?
In the old windows there used to be a terminal window application on the
menu.

Thanks.

On the host you must run the "Terminal Server" service (if it
is a server), or enable Remote Desktop via the Control Panel /
System / Remote (if it is Windows Professional).

On the client you must run mstsc.exe. It's included with Windows
XP and can be downloaded from here for all other OSs:

Try running mstsc from a machine on the internal network first,
before attempting an outside connection.
