Thanks for your quick reply. I am trying to use my laptop outside home. So
that RDWC would help me to connect my Desktop. I can use RDWC within my
network but not outside. RDC would not help me to do this as I am going to
connect away from home.
You mentioned to forward TCP Port 80(IIS) and TCP Port 3389 (Remote
Desktop). How can I do this? Colud you explain me?
Thanks again
Regards
