Regarding ActiveX, are you referring to the Remote Web Workplace feature
of SBS?

I'm guessing you've downloaded the Remote Desktop client for Mac and
you're pointing it at your office's external address, which is getting
you to the login prompt of your SBS server - but you need to get to your
machine.

It would be possible to do this via Terminal Services gateway but I
don't know if SBS supports this. Thinking about it, I don't know if the
Mac client supports it either.
