I am trying to connect two XP machines behind a d-link router via remote web
connection. The connection work fine internally but will not work
externally. If I just click connect without typing in a name at all, it will
connect to one of the machines. But when I type in either name or ip address
it will not connect. Is what I am trying to do possible and can anyone help.

Thanks,
Pete
 
That is expected behavior...

You must provide a public IP address for the second machine (which you
won't have if you are using a NAT-based firewall/router) when using
the TSWC... You CAN enable access to both machines by forwarding TCP
Port 3390 at your router to TCP port 3389 on your other XP computer...
Then you will be able to connect from the standard windows client by
providing IPADDRESS:3390... To access this other computer via the web
client, you must make a copy of the default.htm (call it
default2.htm), edit it and add:

'Add the following line of script before the 'Connect()' call
MsRdpClient.AdvancedSettings2.RDPPort = 100
