I want to be able to connect to the computers on my network. And I
want to do this even from outside the firewall. SBS 2003 has a great
web interface to launch this at http://yourdomain.com/remote.

But it wasn't working. I was getting the error: "Connectivity to the remote computer could not be established. Ensure that the remote computer is on and connected to the Windows Small Business Server network."

I found the solution here: http://techrepublic.com.com/5208-6230-0.html?forumID=101&threadID=227304&messageID=2263999

"Remote Connections
I've seen this error too many times when I don't enable remote
coneections on workstations. The connection is being made, otherwise you would not get that error. Check and make that "Allow users to connect remotely to this computer" is enabled. This is found on the Remote tab of my computer. As soon as I tenable it, I can remote login to workstation. This has worked for me every time without fail. "

This worked great and now I can connect to the machines that I want to connect to.
