Web Remote Desktop - can't connect

First, I would like to ask if it is possible to activate the Web Remote Desktop for Server 2008?  I have searched for an answer and can't find a whole lot on the topic.
Second, I set it up on one of my 2003 servers (according to the article on: http://www.petri.co.il/install_remote_desktp_web_connection_on_windows_server_2003.htm).I am able to get to the page but always get the following error when I try to connect: "VBScript: Remote Desktop Disconnected. The client could not connect to the remote computer.  Remote connections might not be enabled or the computer might be too busy to accept new connections.  It is also possible that network problems are preventing your connection.  Please try connecting later..."
We are not making this available to the internet (only internally).  Remote Desktop is enabled in the server (although we use a port other than 3389 to access it when using the MS RD client).  I tried making the same change on the web client (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=326945) but then the page no longer loads up...
in any case, I am not sure if the port is causing the problem...  Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
