it is a registry setting, but i can't remember the exact location off the top of my head. open up regedit from run, and do a search for "3389" where ever you find that value, change it to whatever port you want, and save. i believe that is all i did. just remeber though, you are gonan have to specify the port now on connections, your new port wont be the default. for example when you use say XPs remote desktop to connect to 2003's terminal server, you will have to say 192.168.1.1:port
hope that helps. hippiejoe
