I run Windows Server 2008 R2 in my VMWare Fusion. Is there a way to -not locally- remote control the VM using MS’ Remote Desktop Connection (or some equivalent tool)?

Yes, you can. You just need to configure your VM Fusion to listen on Windows Remote Desktop port 3389. You can do this by navigating into file
/VMware Fusion/vmnet8. There you edit filenat.confWith these settings:[incomingtcp] 3389 = 192.168.0.1:3389, it is in formatHOST_PORT = VM_IPADDRESS:VM_PORTSo change the VM_IPADRESS properly. Than just restart your VM.
