I've got a dedicated server running Debian 6. I've set up a windows 7 virtual machine using KVM. Now I'm trying to get Remote desktop working. I'm guessing i have to do some port forwarding.

The virtual machine is in a NAT. Remote desktop is already set up on it (another virtual machine can connect).

I've tried using the iptables and countless of virsh commands of which I'm not even sure what they did.

Anyone knows how to get this working?
