change remote desktop default port
This video will show how a registry hack (regedit) can change your default remote desktop port (3389) to another port. When your ISP only provides one IP address, you can use this hack to edit which machine you want for remote desktop by stating the port in the remote desktop window. I run several virtual machines at one time and use this hack to specify which one that I want to tinker with while I am at work.
This is available on Microsoft Windows Server 2000, 2003, 2008 Windows XP, Vista, and 7.
