First off, Remote Assistance is not Remote Desktop. I have not actually
tried it, but I believe that Remote Assistance is just w way to invite
someone to connect to your session to help you.
Assuming that you are really talking about Remote Desktop, simply open up
port 3389 on the firewall, and point traffic to the internal IP of the
machine that you want to connect to with RDP.

How can you setup a firewall whether it be a hardware or software firewall
to allow Remote Assistance in XP (Remote Desktop) traffic to come through?
Is it simply a matter of just allowing the traffic from a certain port to
come through or are there other steps that need to be taken along with this
to ensure that the person connecting remotely will be able to get through?
