2008 Terminal Services

RabbieBurns · 04-07-2009, 06:09 PM

Just installed a 2008 server, its my first real dabble with 2008. Want to get terminal services running, is there any documentation kicking about of how to do it? Couldnt really find much on google.

Best place to check and to follow best practises would be the technet whitepaper on terminal services.

It can be found @ Windows Server®*2008 Terminal Services

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l...46(WS.10).aspx

Hope that helps

BrianMadden.com - Application and desktop virtualization, VDI, and Citrix news, blogs, forums, and in-depth analysis is probably the best Terminal Services / Citrix site

Microsoft TechNet Home Page (United Kingdom - English) is the best Microsoft site for this stuff

Hi Rabbie,
Yes it is. Local drives can be made available in the Terminal Service session - just define your TS RAP to allow it. Don't know if you're thinking of using web access or terminal services client, but if you are using the client, don't do what I did & get deeply frustrated because local drives were not showing - I hadn't ticked the box in the client to allow it

thanks that was exactly it. I hadnt clicked to expand the "more" option in the rdc client, which then gave me the option to tick disks. Thanks a lot.
