I just read on inet that "Terminal Services" is on the win2k (server only?) cd. Is it available elsewhere since I don't have a cd (e.g., download from MS). Sorry, not real up on win2k stuff. -gene |

Terminal Services is included with Windows 2000 only on the Server edition -- if you want to use it just for "remote access" to the server, you can have up to two "administrative" connections (not optimised for application use) for no extra charge, otherwise you need to license terminal services from Microsoft in addition to the Windows 2000 Server licence. I do not know of any way of running an rdesktop server from Windows 2000 Pro -- and if there is some third-party tool available I'm sure it violates pretty much every section of Microsoft's EULA. Windows XP Pro (don't know about Home, but I assume so?) includes a limited-functionality terminal services server which will (as far as I can tell, I haven't really used it extensively) only allow you one rdesktop connection at a time, and even then not at the same time as using the console (when you connect it transfers the console to the rdesktop client and locks the console).

The main rdesktop site wasn't clear on this point. (I guess it was assumed to be a commonly know fact.) Anyhow, I built rdesktop on my linux box and tried to log in to a win2k server on our network, and it didn't let me in (I am not an admin). Just curious about it. Also, thought it was interesting that it uses iso-on-tcp (aka, rfc 1006) protocol since I am currently using the same protocol on a project. Again, thanks for the info. -gene |
