If you have a router, you have to also forward port 3389 to whatever the

Hi

I am running windows XP sp2
I am using another firewall than the default windows firewall

What do i need to adjust - other than opening for port 3389?

Additionally you can test port forwarding through your router and
firewalls from the Remote Desktop host by going to the
