Prevent Remote Logon

[Nicolas Macarez]

Hi!
I am running Windows Terminal Services in Application Mode on a Windows
Server 2003 machine.

The users at the office premises are gettting access to the server from
their desktop with the Remote Desktop Protocol client, through the LAN.

Currently they are also able to log on remotely from their home through the
Internet. I wish to block this access for some of them.

Is there a way to do that?

Help appreciated
Nicolas

I cannot think of way without the answer being moving to windows 2008 or
only allowing vpn connections to your internal network.

As Jeff said, VPN - check out the SonicWALL VPN appliance for a nice way to
handle this. You can specify who has access & to what.
