Remote Desktop & VPN

by info . Updated 18 years, 11 months ago

In the very near future I will need to have remote desktop access to a windows 2003 server that will be a domain controller for a client of mine. The server will be behind a router of some sorts (cisco 800 or 1800 series). I will be behind a home based linksys wrt54g router.

I’ve never had to use remote desktop or vpn tools. Can someone point in the direction of what I will need to do to configure this connection on both sides.I’ve been doing alot of reading, the remoted desktop part seems pretty straight foward but then it says you need a VPN connection to make it happen. How do I know what the vpn connection is or should be. Is the VPN connection determined by either ISP? Router brands on both sides? I’m lost?

Some particulars:

Businesses ISP: DeltaCom (T1 Integrated Line)
Businesses Router: Cisco 800 or 1800 series)
My ISP: Time Warner Cable Roadrunner
My Router: Linksys WRT54G

Thanks
