Hey Krisna,

Jim meant to set the encryption to the highest setting available on Terminal 
Services Configuration, on Administrative tools. Get the RDP-TCP properties and 
you can set the encryption level there.

Well, you can change the port, but if someone really wants to hack you, let's 
say you'll make the hacker work another 10 seconds or less ;) so it's worthless.

Thank you very much Andrew for alerting the hot point to me. 
Changing the RDP port is one of highest risk stuff, and it does not
recommend changing as well from Microsoft unless necessary.

Could let me know the RDP port can be usefully changed by most people?

I followed the link to configure my server
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;294720 

Jim, could you please detail on "set the encryption to
"ungodly high" and leave it there." Due to I'm not a native English speaker.
(Sorry)

Regards,
Krisna

"Security by obscurity".

This isn't worth your time as any script kiddie worth his (her) salt can
easily find listening ports with some readily-available tools.
Once they have those; they can hit them with some standard
"banner-chasing" toys that'll ferret out your RDP service in no time.
Rather than wasting your time in useless pursuits, set the encryption to
"ungodly high" and leave it there.

I would suggest that you do not use port 3389 as your external port.
3389 is the first thing hackers look for when port hunting because TS is
easy to hack. When you select RDP (Term Services) Server click on ports
and then enable the firewall port publish and give it a value of 33000
or higher. This way when you RDP in from the internet into your box(es)
you just need to put a :33000 or whatever the port number is and your
in. :-)
