you need to forward the port of the host machine (windows 2000 in your case) in the router configuration. forward port 3389 to the IP of the machine that the router assigned.

if you were using realvnc, you'd forward port 5900 and 5901. without you specifying the type of router you're using, I can't be more specific on the firewall settings other than to say allow traffic along those ports.

and btw, terminal services is not going to give you guys a "shared" desktop where one user can watch the other work remotely. instead he's going to see the machine locked by another user. you should really consider using realvnc or tightvnc instead.
