Hi James,
 
I use remote desktop publishing on an alternate port and it works well.
The protocol is secure, but like any other authenticated access method,
DoS attacks using brute force and account lockout is common. Be sure to
use a bizzare user name like X54k02kcos4-9iopwrit248610q and password so
that no one guesses the user name on the published remote desktop.
 
For VPN, you can't do much better for yourself than the ISA Server 2000

        Is there a article on this  (step by step) anywhere.
        what port does VPN use my Local education authority has closed
off most of the ports so ill need to ask them to open the port.
