could not connect to server

could not connect to server

I have a couple of computers on my LAN that can connect to a windows server located externally. I have recently purchased the wyse software for my ipad but get an error indicating that I cannot connect to the external server. Are there any special settings I need to set on the windows machine for this to work? when I connect to the windows server normally I get a warning about how rdp cannot verify the identity of the the computer I want to connect to. 
Please help, this is frustrating.

    This error occurs normally when your device could reach the ipaddress/port of the machine. May be below reasons

    1. You may be in a external wireless n/w or 3G and trying to access your secured n/w. Try pinging to this IP address from your device.
    2. Port you are trying to connect may different than the rdp listening port.

    You can run the PocketCloud diagnostics in the server to detect any server configuration issue. Launch diagnostics from PocketCloud tray icon

    apparently the only way to get to my pc is through the company VPN...does that negate your application then?
