Next week i am in need to remotely access my network. The easiest for me it
to open the firewall for port 3389 to the ipaddress of the server. If i set
the security on the terminal server to High which should be 128 bit
encryption is this going to be secure? I understand that the user name and
password needs to be a hard password to guess. I have only allowed the
administrator accound the right to terminal service in via AD. Is there
anything else to consider?

TIA
