The remote terminal service in the Windows 2000 system is a very powerful service, but also the channel of the invader, the invader can use some means to get the administrator account and password and invade the host. Below, let's take a look at how to prevent hacker invasion by modifying the default port.
Remote terminal service is based on port 3389. Intrusioners generally scan the host open port. Once it is found to open 3389 port, it will perform the next invasion, so we only need to modify the default port to avoid most intruders' eyes.
Steps: Open "Start → Run", enter "regedit", open the registry, go to the following path: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SYSTEM /
CurrentControlSet / Control / Terminal Server /
WDS / RDPWD / TDS / TCP] See the portnamber value? Its default is 3389, modified to the desired port, for example 6111.
Open again [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /
System / CurrentContro1Set / Control / Tenninal Server / WinStations / RDP / TCP] Modify the value of PortNumber (default 3389) to port 6111.
After the modification, restart the computer, use port 6111 when logging in remotely.
