TSWEB

by amandae . Updated 21 years, 6 months ago

I have very limited knowledge and am attempting to Set up our Windows 2003 server to allow users to TSWEB onto it.

I have added 3389 to the firewall’s Port Forwarding section and stated the IP of the terminal server to route to. I also added the port to the default.htm page on the terminal server.

On attempting to connect to the terminal server via a web browser, I was surprised to find that I only needed to enter http:// the terminal server’s IP/tsweb. I then entered the terminal server IP into the ‘connect to server’ field on the tsweb page and I was at the desktop of our terminal server.

What have I done incorrectly that has made it so easy to reach the terminal server? I thought I would need to enter our public IP/tsweb rather than the terminal server IP directly.

In the interim, I have stopped forwarding port 3389 to stop potential security breaches. Any explanations or guidance would be gratefully received.

MAny thanks
