Yep, that looks like what I'm looking for.  Thanks for the pointer!

        Here's what I'm looking to do:
        
        I don't want to create a public IP for the internal destination.
        Instead, I'd like to connect from outside the network via HTTPS to a 
DMZ website hosting the RDweb login page, enter the internal desktop IP or 
name, and connect. 
         
         
        I have opened 3389 from the webserver to the internal machine, and so 
far, RD works from the webserver in the DMZ to the internal machine,
        but when I connect to the login page (over https) from outside the
        network the internal desktop can't be found.
        
        Do I need to forget about HTTPS and just try port 80?

        Hi Roger,
        
        Port 3389 is the port that is used for traffic to the machine that is 
to be
        controlled. Therefore, you need configure your firewall so that an 
outside
        resource is allowed to connect to the inside PC via port 3389.
        
        Nothing rides over HTTP in this case.. It's all RDP.

        To access an internal machine from outside the network using Remote
        Desktop Web Connection, does 3389 have to be open TO the firewall or
        just FROM the firewall to the remote desktop?  I would assume that
        everything rides over HTTP (80), but is this correct?
