MS Win2k Terminal Services requires port 3389 for its desktop protocol and can use port 445 (Active Directory) for the integrated windows authentication. This is however not required (on win2k, don't know about XP). Try using iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p tcp --sport 1024: --dport 443 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.101:445 iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p tcp --sport 1024: --dport 3389 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.101:3389 (the first line being optional) and see if that works better. If terminal services is nat-able at all that should be the trick. -- Martijn
