I just want to allow specific users to RDP to the server from the internet..
All users can access Terminal Server from inside the network (local address)

Can this be done with a policy? Id rather not have to rely on VPN as it
does not work from some hotels, internet cafe's etc.

There are a couple of ways I know of to do but it's dependant on how
big the lan is. What exactly are they needing access to? a web based e-
mail would work well and maybe a restricted FTP. Also, setting a
folder redirection so"My Documents" will sync in GP has worked well
for some users on my network for years. But to answer your original
question, yes, you will need to forward the port on the firewall to
which computer you want. Go to the computer, control panel, system.
When the systems box opens,click the tab that says remote. make sure
"Enable Remote Desktop on this Computer" is checked. Then go to
"select remote users" and enter in th administrators group. On mine,
Groups was not automatically searched so you may have to also tell it
to search groups. This way you really wouldn't need apoliciy but you
could create another group if you want to refine permissions
Hopefully that is along the lines of what you were asking. Remember,
unless you are this with a server then your connections are genrally
limited to one at a time. If you are using a server, be careful.- Hide quoted text -

Then forward the RD port (forgot the number) to which server, then log
onusing the public IP andyou should be set.
