Re: Help need with Remote desktop TSWEB

If your home PC is behind a firewall/NAT/router you need to forward/open both TCP Port 80 (IIS) and
TCP Port 3389 (Remote Desktop) in order to use the web method. This also presumes that TCP Port 80
is *NOT* blocked by your ISP. Some ISPs block TCP Port 80 for home users because running personal
web servers violates the user agreement for home accounts.
