Watchguard blocking rdp, "unhandled external packet"


In short: On a Watchguard Fireware XTM I have allowed connections from all on all ports to all ports on internal server (Win2008).
Still I can not rdp in to the server, Watchguard logs says
Code:
Process=firewall  Disposition=Deny  Policy=Unhandled External Packet-00  Source IP=10.10.30.11  Destination IP=172.16.1.19  Source Interface=pptp0  Destination Interface=br2  Source Port=49801  Destination Port=3389  Protocol=rdp/tcp
I also created a NAT rule from my static ip to server on port 3389, same result.

There are no blocked sites, a few blocked ports but not 3389.

The rule to allow access to Watchguards web-ui on this interface (172.16.1.1) from LAN & VPN works fine. An identical rule for rdp / 3389 to internal server gives this "Unhandled External Packet".

(And I know this isn't strictly a Linux-question, but I believe there are people here who have knowledge about this kind of issue.)
