Terminal Services with Win2003 server from MSDN
|
|
| bzamfir@gmail.com 2006-03-31, 6:56 pm |
| Hi,
I have MSDN Professional subscription, and I need to test an app with
Win2003 server and terminal services.
Does anyone knows if I can install Terminal services on a Win2003
server from MSDN PRO subscription?
Do I have what I need on Win2003 kit, or I need to purchase something
else, additional beside MSDN.
Thank you
Bogdan Zamfir

| Terminal Services is a part of the Windows Server 2003 OS. You can install
it using control panel add/remove programs - windows components.
The only thing you don't have are TS licenses so you can only have 2 remote
connections at once in administration mode.
HTH,
Josh

| Hi,
Thank you, this is perfect, because I only need it for testing
Please excuse my ignoranly, but this way I can have a user logged on at
server console, and another user logged on remote desktop (terminal),
and each one see its one screen and session?

Bogdan

| You can have a user logged into the console and two remote users. Each
having their own session.

Yes.. and please note, that for this purpose, with Windows Server 2003, you
do NOT need to install anything. "Terminal Services for Applications" (which
is a moniker only applicable to Windows 2000 systems), is automatically
installed on Windows Server 2003 systems.
Simply go to System Properties (right click My Computer | Properties, or
Control Panel | System), select the Remote tab, and in the bottom half of
the dialog, enable Remote connections.

Yes, this is known as "shadowing" a session. This is a new feature for 2003
which many people don't seem to know about yet.
To use it, the console user must go into Terminal Services Manager (in
Administrative Tools) and locate the remote user's RDP-Tcp session (under
the server in the treeview pane). The console user right-clicks on the
session and chooses Connect. This "joins" the two sessions together.
Depending on your settings, the remote user may be prompted to grant
permission first. Also, it is possible to have settings which always
prohibit shadowing, in which case the Connect won't work at all. These
settings are a combination of local server settings which you can set in
Terminal Services Configuration (also in Administrative Tools but don't
confuse it with the TS Manager) and domain/OU-level settings which can set
in Group Policy. In TS Configuration, you would select the Connections
folder, then right-click on RDP-Tcp and choose Properties. Switch to the
Remote Control tab where you will see the options affecting shadowing. If
you use GPO, each of these options has a corresponding Policy available
under Computer Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components,
Terminal Services.

| Remote Control as it's called in Windows, ('shadowing' in Citrix) was
available in 2000 server as well.

| Only for a remote session to shadow another remote session. Bogdan was
asking about the combination of a remote session and the console session.
