SOHO Sonicwall at Terminal Services
I'm trying to setup Terminal Services through a SOHO firewall. I setup a service named "Terminal Services" on TCP Port 3389 I then setup a rule with the following attributes:
1. Allow
2. Service name "Terminal Services"
3. Source = WAN
4. Destination = LAN
5. IP Address range = 192.168.1.199 (this is my server's address that is running Terminal Services)
Does anyone know if I'm leaving something out?
Thanks...

I want to dial INTO the network from, let's say, the office manager's house. We are all running W2K.
Thanks. VPN is not an option at this time.

ok so what brand of firewall??? each SOHO type of firewall has different ways of forwarding ports, setttings, etc. so its hard to tell what you missed if we don't know the brand or type of firewall you're using. what you have listed so far makes sense...you're negotiating the right ports into the network...so it seems like your simly missing some type of configuration on your firewall that's preventing this from happening.

It's a SOHO Sonicwall 50 user firewall.
Still need help? Let me know, I think I can help you

which way is the traffic flowing?
What operating systems are your machines? Is this Win2k Terminal services or Winxp Remote Desktop??
A better way would simply be to VPN into your network and then launch your terminal session from there. This way you have a secure tunnel into your network and your information is encrypted instead of simply attempting to establish an unsecured session that transfers data this way.
