After i install SP1 on server, the Terminal Services may be running, but cant be accessed from the outside. Is there a setting i must change? It did work before the install. I also recognize that there were security enhancements made. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
my initial guess is the windows 2003 firewall is turned on.

I havent installed SP1 yet tho.
 
Try running security configuration wizard.

Ok i will try the config wizard... i didnt think that there would be a firewall installed with SP1 however lol. If this doesnt work, Ill reply back. Thanks sab4you and PScottC
 
The firewall shouldn't be on if you do an install of SP1 on a 2003 RTM machine. The only time the firewall is activated is when you do a clean, slipstreamed install of 2003 SP1, or when you upgrade from NT to 2003 SP1.

You mentioned it can't be accessed from the outside...does that mean you can access it internally?
