Remote Desktop Windows Firewall
First I'd like to state the problem I'm trying to solve. I would like to Remote Desktop to my machine running Windows 7 on port 3389 when I am on the LAN. If I am not on the LAN I would like to use a different port (i.e. 9999) which will forward to port 3389.
This is functionality I have made happen on my machine running Windows Server 2003 using just the built-in Windows Firewall. When I am on the LAN, I connect using port 3389. When I'm on a remote network, I have to use a different port which forwards to 3389. This is not something set up on my router, it's all done using the settings in the Windows Firewall. And, I have not been able to find similar settings on the Windows 7 Firewall.
Any help on this would be appreciated, either letting me know where the corresponding settings would be in Windows 7, or that this is not possible with the Windows Firewall in Windows 7. Thanks!
