Windows Server 2008 R2 RDWeb Resources

This is the first post of February 2013 and it's already the 19th. I can't believe it. I haven't posted in a while, but it's not because of laziness: I've been working on RDWeb for my work. Along the way I found some very helpful and not so helpful resources. I'll only list the helpful links.  Do note that these links may not solve your problem and that I'm not endorsing *every* solution mentioned in the links. The answers labeled "best answer" or "chosen answer" helped me in the forums. I didn't try every solution that is mentioned in the links below.

My main focus for deploying Remote Desktop Services was to make our local applications available to users located outside our network so that's the focus of the links below.
