RE: TSWeb and DNS

Why not just setup a Remote Desktops MMC with all of the servers listed and
NOT use the Remote Desktop Web Connection. This way you won't even have to
deal with the Name Resolution Problem.

It very well may be that you do not have Name Resolution Ports open between
the DMZ and Private Network.

What have you done to test different name resolution methods between the DMZ
and Private Network.


Another option would be to save a different RDP File for each Server you
need to manage. You could store these in a folder that you can access on the
DMZ and name them by the name of each server.

You could also customize your own TSWeb with links to each server.
