terminal service connection problem

I have a set of workstations at a remote job site trying to connect to
terminal servers at our main office. The remote job site uses a
satellite internet connection and Linksys router. There are two
servers at the main site - server1 is the ts licensing server and
server2 is the application server. Here’s my problem:

Several workstations at the remote site can’t connect to server2; they
get this error:

The client could not establish a connection to the remote computer.
The most likely causes for this are:

1) Remote connections might not be enabled at the remote computer
2) The maximum number of connections was exceeded at the remote
computer
3) A network error occurred while establishing the connection

I’ve tried just about everything. I’ve used both the XP and 2003
remote desktop clients, I’ve rebooted all networking hardware, taken
all other computers off the remote network, swapped out cables,
reloaded the OS. Other machines are able to make the connection just
fine, and some of the problem workstations can make a connection to
server1, just not server2. At the same time those workstations can
make a connection to server2 when using another internet connection
like a cable modem.

At this point I just can’t make any sense out of this. Doing away
with the satellite internet is not an option, but I don’t think that’s
really the problem since other clients are able to use it
successfully. I really need some help with this. Does anyone have
any ideas?

Thanks
