The port is 3389/TCP but I don't think it is a good idea from a security
point of view... (i could have worded it harder;)) If you need, I suggest
you put it into a DMZ and then connect to a VPN to the DMZ and THEN get onto
the terminal server.

If you drop information on your complete network setup, I may be able to
provide more advise.
