firewall ports opened, still not connecting

[LadySlinger]

Hello,

I am trying to get connected to Terminal Services that is behind a firewall. I've seen the other discussions that said I had to have TS port 3389 (TCP) opened and if going through the internet, port 80 as well.

I have this set up, but think I don't think I Have it right.

I've set up one entry for Terminal Services and enabled it. Also set the Outgoing Protocol as TCP, Port Range is (Start) 3389 and (finish) 3389.

Since I'm connecting through the web, I set up the web port 80 to be opened. Port Range both start and finished is 80.

Has anyone else run into this trying to connect Terminal Services through the web? If not, kindly point me to the discussion group I should be in.

Thanks, LS

Hi. I use a VPN connection to TS to a system via the web.

I do believe that the firewall will have logs showing where the connection terminates.(provided you know the time, your source IP & destination IP)
I guess it depends on the type of firewall as well.

Perhaps a port translation from 80 to 3389 is required behind the firewall to use TS.

You do have the correct port of 3389 for TS.

For other assistance, if this route is too slow, try your firewall vendor for support.

Hello,

I was able to connect. V. silly mistake I did. When I tested the connection outside of the firewall I Had to change the gateway. Well I forgot to switch it back. Which now I'm able to connect w/o any problems.

THanks for your help though!
