Don't confuse VPN with Remote Desktop.

If you are talking about Remote Desktop (aka terminal services in NT/2K?),
simply forward/pinhole port 3389 to your machine, and of course a
router:portx to yourmachine:port80, so you can login using /tsweb.

I have this working on my RTA020. I use http://my.ip.address:83:/tsweb to
login.

The router forwards :83 to :80 on my machine. The client that you are using
to login to your home machine will sit there for a few moments, depending on
the two internet connection speeds while it downloads a plugin, then
confirms if you want to install it.

Listening Port 3389 can be changed with a registry edit.

On a side note, if you use anything other than Remote Desktop or some
similar microsoft app to view a windows xp desktop, such as VNC, you would
be breaking your eula... not that we care.
