tsweb & Windows 2003

All,

I am using Windows 2003 to host the 'tsweb' Windows Web
Terminal Services. Now when I browse to the site on my
local LAN using http://windows2003ServerName/tsweb I get
the Windows Remote desktop web connection screen appearing
and I enter the name of the Windows 2003 server and it
connects fine.

But when I try this over the internet using
http://mydomainname.com/tsweb I still get the Windows
Remote desktop web connection screen appearing but when I
enter the server name it comes back with a message saying
could not find the computer.

I am hosting other virtual directories and they all work
fine - can anyone help

Thanks

Something between your remote destop machines and your client is blocking
TCP port 3389. Do you have a firewall on your LAN?

Hi,

I do have a firewall but it is switched off for the time
being. All ports are open - do I need to create a ip
forward rule for that port i.e when the request comes in
from the internet my router will foward it onto the
internal ip address of my Windows 2003?

Thanks
