I've been told that if I implement a Terminal Server, that I should have it behind a firewall and have my remote offices access it via a VPN connection. I know that's probably the most secure option, however, using the VPN seems to be restricting me slightly (won't go into details to keep it short). I noticed that within the RDP-Tcp connection properties (within TS Configuration on the TS) that there is an encryption setting on the General tab. Could I give my Term. Server an external IP address at the firewall level and use NAT to redirect traffic to it and just eliminate the VPN all together?? In other words, could I use this encryption in place of the VPN?
