One of my clients has SBS Server and a desktop. Going through RWW takes few extra steps than RDP when accessing the computer from external site. Is it better to go through RWW or can port 3389 be opened and pointed to that computer. What is the difference and which is more safe? Or What about VPN. Can some body please give difference and advantage/disadvangae on RWW, RDP and VPN please.
