Hi Jasper,
This used to be an issue with Exchange sometimes grabbing port 3389 (ts)
before TS could get it. Below, I post the fix for that particular issue, but
I don't know whether it's valid for 2k3, but I suspect it is. If you try it,
just be sure to back up the registry first.
The dependency will likely work as well - I don't *think* exchange will stop
if you stop firebird - the dependency is just on service startup (but I
could be wrong). You could try it. However, a dependency wouldn't be my
first choice either.

1. Add the Internet key under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Rpc
2. Under the Internet key, add the values
"Ports" (MULTI_SZ)
"PortsInternetAvailable" (REG_SZ)
"UseInternetPorts" (REG_SZ)
Use ports 4000 through 5000 inclusive, so the new registry key appears as
follows:
Ports: REG_MULTI_SZ: 4000-5000
PortsInternetAvailable: REG_SZ: Y
UseInternetPorts: REG_SZ: Y
Note: Very important that no spaces appear in the REG_MULTI_SZ string
4000-5000 for the Ports entry. See previous note.
3. Restart the server.
