Hello people,

I was wondering if I can get some assistance here. I am new to N900 and Maemo. I got my device last week and it's excellent.

I installed Rdesktop and it works flawlessly over LAN. I just can’t seem to get it working over the internet. Before you ask, following has been tested and tried:

- Port 3389 forwarded on router to the machine I want to remote into. Both TCP/UDP checked. (I know the ways to forward ports as it successfully works for my utorrent app etc)

- Firewall exceptions in place. In fact firewall disabled.
- Remote Settings enabled to access machines both on Windows 7 and XP. On Windows 7 enabled for both Public and Home network.
- ISP is not blocking port 3389
- Port is open (checked via http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/)


For the love of god I just can’t seem to figure out where it’s failing. I am sure it should work over the internet as well.

Any ideas/hints? Is there a way to run Rdesktop via x-term and enable some logging to see if it's timing out or access denied or incorrect user/pass though it should be fine.

Much appreciated.
