I installed XRDP on my home machine, made sure the service was running, NAT'ed ports 3350 and 3389 TCP to the machine in my router and punched corresponding holes through Guarddog on these ports on the machine as well, but connecting with: rdesktop -f "my IP here" from my workplace doesn't work. I get "unable to connect".
I have a feeling, it's still the firewall. Do I need to tick permitting the rdesktop protocol in both the "local" and the "Internet" zone or do I need to also establish specific custom rules?
After messing a bit with the firewall (by allowing rdesktop in zone "local" as well) I now get the message in the screenshot. Does this mean, that I have to do a custom rule for 5910 TCP? That would be a bit.. weird, since the box for "rdesktop" in the services list is ticked in both zones now..
