In our eyes the biggest design flaw is that there is no authentication prior
to the windows authentication.  PCs in a locked office are more secure than
a Terminal Server out on the public internet... because you need a key to
get into the office.

Anyone have any strong opinions on the security of RDP (Microsoft's
terminal server/remote desktop protocol)?  Poking around on the net, I
see that they've had at least one design flaw that supposedly hasn't
been fixed (ie. server identification.)  Any other design problems?

Thanks!
