Remote desktop connection (LAN / Internet)

Greetings.
 
Server OS : Win 2k Server

When i use Romote Terminal Services (RTS) from Win 2k Pro within LAN, there will be authentication to enter the password. So, the user need to enter username and password.

But if i dial up from Internet  and connect using RTS to the same Win 2k Server, it will auto-logon using a valid default username (tlsinternetuser) and password. It will not ask to enter password.

How to force the user to enter username and password if they connect from Internet? Otherswise, it will be a disaster if everyone can login without any authentication..

Thanks in advance.

To Make Changes to the Automatic Logon Information

Click Start, point to Programs, point to Terminal Services Client, and then click Client Connection Manager.
Click the connection you want to change.
On the File menu, click Properties.
On the General tab, under Log on automatically with this information, type a new user name, password, or domain name.
