Penetration Testing: MS Terminal Services open to the world

["Ralph Los" <RLos () enteredge com>]

Hello all,

        I've got a pretty good client of mine who absolutely refuses to heed
my warnings about keeping Terminal Services open to the world.  They rely on
Windows passwords and figure that's strong enough for all their servers
(management).  Now I'm given the task of auditing their
security/infrastructure and would like to come up some creative ways to back
up my point about MS TS open to the Internet being a bad idea.

Any thoughts or input is appreciated.

Ralph
