Yeah, that's correct. At work we have a static IP and a NATed network, and I just do port routing from external IP port 34567 -> internal IP port 3389 (3389 is the port RDP runs on). Same thing at home, except I use DynDNS to get my home IP address. So in the remote desktop client you just type in "1.2.3.4:34567" or "myaddress.dyndns.org:34567" (or whatever port you use). Use multiple external ports to map to multiple internal computers...figure that adds in a slight amount of security too. Scott
