Yes have you setup a SNAT/DNAT and Packetfilter rule? What shows the packet filter live Log? entries in the IDS Log?
I run Microsoft's Remote Desktop Client every day. I use it to access my office PC from home, and also to access my home PC from the office. Both my home and my office has ASG 6.1 firewalls. Both firewalls has packet filter settings that allow just about all outbound traffic.
If you have set up a DNAT for port 3389 to your desktop, and a packet filter rule that reflects the same... and it still doesn't work... check the IPS rules.. you'll probably find false hits on 2 or 3 rules that specifically have to do w/ RDP.. just disable those rules. It's a pretty common problem.
Yep... easy.. just sort the list of main categories by clicking the row header for hits... then click the folder Icon to drill down and look thru the rules that have collected hits.. you're looking rules that have anything to do w/ RDP (it'll be part of the description of the rule).. just disable the offending ones.
post your applicable DNAT rule and Packet filter rule... there's a mistake there somewhere... make sure the default gateway on the subject PC is the Astaro.
Rules 1447 and 4060 in the IPS should be disabled or allowed. To find them, simply click the filters button in the top right of the rules page, and enter the string "RDP" in the substring blank.. and click Apply... it should list 4 rules total, 2 of which are RDP rules.
