Alternate Terminal Server Ports

[Ravenrex]

Is it possible to change the ports that Terminal Services for Windows (port 3389) communicates across by way of a registry setting or something similar? If so, how do you do it on the server side and on the client side?

on client side i know you go to your Rmote Connection app and then select iP and settings then click SAVE AS

then save it and open that file with notepad

add

server port:i:xxxx

where xxx is the port number

ill look for link on the reg key for the server side

I found this, I believe this is the registry change for the server:

By default Terminal Server and Windows 2000 Terminal services uses TCP port 3389 for client connections. Imagine you have 2 terminal servers behind NAT (only 1 real IP)..

To change the default port for all new connections created on the Terminal Server:

Run Regedt32 and go to this key:

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp

Find the "PortNumber" subkey and notice the value of 00000D3D, hex for (3389). Modify the port number in Hex and save the new value.
