I am looking to set up Terminal Services to allow the copying of files
through a firewall on a Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition server. I
have heard that this can be done securely over the standard TS port
(tcp/3389). Does anyone know how to do this?

I have tried OpenSSH for Windows with WinSCP for the client. I have had
issues of the OpenSSH service locking up and not coming back until the
server has been rebooted.
 
File copy, clipboard mapping & printing are all done via the RDP Protocol
over TCP Port 3389. By default, connections to terminal servers are secured
by 128-bit, bi-directional RC4 encryption—when used with a client that
supports 128-bit.

To support this, users need to connect via Remote Desktop Client 5.1 or
higher. Download clients here:

Secure file copy programs are intended to be used on Windows 2000, which
does not natively support file copy between server and client over RDP.
