I have had SBS 2003 for about a year. I did most of my work from
home using Remote Desktop to connect to the server. Recently this
feature stopped working. I have visited System > Remote tab and
checked the lower box. I have visited TODO list and executed item 3.
I have installed T/S licence manager even though it seemed unecessary.

Can you please suggest further avenues for investigation?

Many thanks.

Unless you have a terminal server, uninstall Terminal Service license
manager.
Can you telnet to your public IP on 3389? In a command prompt on your home
PC,

telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3389

Does it fail, or give you a blank screen?

Check using RWW to see if you can get to any computer on the LAN. If you can
get to a desktop, try connecting to it, and then type this in a command
prompt:

telnet servername 3389 <enter>

If that works, it's a problem in your firewall, or your ISP could be
blocking ports.
