Hi everyone,

 

I am getting started on windows 2008 server. A new Dell Poweredge T110 II machine with 2008 windows server is on the way for me. But I am totally new to how hosting and networking works.

My simple need is how can I set up 2008 server to have few of my team members remote desk top to this. We all work remotely with internet connection. And this machine is going to sit in my home. I spend a lot of looking at this but could find like step by step approach for this.

 

Purpose of this machine is that my development team members will login and deploy code and we would like to test the application remotely with the deployed code. We can't afford a full blown network architecture here.

 

Please give some guidance.

 

Thanks

Once the box is setup make sure that you allow remote connections and set permissions for each user to allow to login. Also make sure on your home network you have port 3389 open to the IP of the server and on the server itself you have a rule to allow RDP connections.
