- Remote Desktop to several PC's behind Firewall
- Posted by Pensacola Bruce on January 25th, 2006
I'm using XP Pro via internet through a Sonicwall TZ170 to access my Win 2000
server - this works fine. I want to allow users to remote in directly to
their desktop; I have set the listining port to 3388 on the PC and tried to
setup rules in Sonicwall but have had no luck hitting "ipaddress:3388" on the
lan. Windpws Firewall excetions have been set and RDP has been allowed on the
PC
How do I setup multiple TC/RDP access the way I want it?

This page has examples of one way to do that by opening multiple ports on a
firewall/router...

A better way, IMO, is to use a VPN or Secure Shell (SSH) tunnel and run all
RDP traffic through the tunnel. Here is how I do that using SSH...
