I can do a Remote Desktop to my Gateway Dialup computer. (even though its got
a variable IP Address). Thats FINE. It is basically doing Internet Connection
Sharing (ICS)

BUT, I want to do a Remote Desktop to the Dynamically assigned WinXP
Computer BEHIND the gateway.

Is there some special Syntax for using RDP?
Does the gateway need to have a special domain?

there is a small program that will let you reroute the ports with ICS so
that you can do that.

This was one of the problems I had too. Its called PORTTUNNEL and you
install this on the machine that is the ICS server and you define the PORTS
you want to be sent from the client machine through the ICS server machine.
You will have to search a little about what ports RDP uses since I dont
remember now. Here is the App:

I have used this successfully so I can have an FTP server an a client
machine behind the ICS machine.

PS. if you want to have a steady address even though your ip changes, you
can use a free service
www.no-ip.com . You sign up there and choose a name and then download a
small program that updates the address you choose with your current IP each
time. This works with all internet services, like www, ftp, vnc, RDP. I
think you will find this really useful.

Thank you, Ken. your information about PORTTUNNEL was very helpful.

I have been trying to do the same thing with Remote Desktop as I can
currently do with a very clever little program called Remote Administrator.
it's a very neat and fast VNC-type program available from www.radmin.com.
Only about 1.5M.

With RADMIN, so long as it is installed on your ICS gateway and your client
machine, you can "tunnel" through the gateway so long as a NetBIOS address or
IP address is available for the computer behind it, all the redirecting is
handled automatically. when "tunnelling" using using RADMIN, all that
happens is that you get two consecutive password prompts. Type in the first
password for the ICS gateway, then immediately another password prompt, type
in the password for the gateway and "snap" you're in!

I also looked at no-ip in the past for maintaining a steady IP address. but
for some reason I couldn't get it to work properly back then. maybe or try it
again.

have in mind that you may have to set ip addresses to the machines for this
to work

192.168.0.1 for the ICS server

and 192.168.0.2 for the client, or instead of 2 an increasing number for
each new machine on the network

all masks will be 255.255.255.0

a quick supplementary question;

Wwhen you say "...have to set up IP addresses...", do you mean that we have
to be set up all clients as Static IP addresses? ...

.... because I thought the whole point of ICS, is that DHCP automatically
handles the IP addressing of the clients behind the ICS gateway.

?

Hello, yes I mean that it would be better to use static IPs for all the
machines and the ICS server must be
192.168.0.1

ICS means internet connection sharring and thats its role.
It does not NEED to use DHCP.

Since you say you are using ICS I presume you dont have a router and the ICS
server is directly connected to the internet.

you install the no-ip updater on the ICS server.

If you need help post here
