Is there a way to allow only some IP to connect to the
server ?

Your best way would be to put up a firewall and force the
firewall to only allow certain people to access the
terminal server.

configuration file to do that ? It pretty unsecure like
almost MS product

I beg to differ. You are comparing apples to oranges.
The _security_ of terminal services is quite high. You
can enable 128-bit encryption to ensure that breaking into
your connection is going to be near-impossible.
However, if you want to restict who can connect to what
server, then you are going to need to buy an additional
piece of hardware of software. Microsoft doesn't have a
built-in system for controlling who can connect to what.
However, you can just use strong passwords and a legal
message to discourage people from trying to get into your
server.
Regardless, you could always try using TSVer and a custom
version of the RDP client to restrict who can connect to
your server. I can post more information about this if
you do desire.
The moral of the story is that the system is quite secure
by itself, as long as you follow simple security
procesures.

secureRDP by Claudio does this but there is IP spoofing. strong passwords
and lockout policies are still the best.
