RE: Hosting a RDP via webpage

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance




Chris,

Although the following article from the Microsoft www site is written from
the perspective of connecting into a Windows XP system via RDP over HTTP, it
turns out that the same procedure can be used to install the remote desktop
web connection capability on Windows Server 2003. I think that in the case of
Small Business Server 2003 this feature gets installed automatically but I do
not think it is automatic in the case of Server 2003. In any case here is
the url to the article on the Microsoft www site:

As you will see if you read the article, once you install the tsweb client,
you can even use the target system as a "transit switch" to RDP into other
systems on your network.
