The specified remote computer could not be found. Verify that you have typed the correct computer name or IP address, and then try connecting again.

I am getting the follwoing error when trying to connect to different computers using terminal server on the same LAN.

The specified remote computer could not be found. Verify that you have typed the correct computer name or IP address, and then try connecting again.

I can connect fine locally using the name or ip address of the computer, but when I try to come in externally via the web connection, I get the error.  My only port forwarding fwds to one of the computers...could this be the issue.  If so, I would figure I could not connect locally.

I think this will work.
Can you give me an example of what the internal & external port numbers can be (that is how they are listed in my router).
Thanks
