Welcome to Day Fifteen of our series on Windows Server 2008. There's only twelve more days until Launch Day. Today we will be continuing on with Terminal Services, specifically the Management and Administration components.
There are several tools and methods that can be used to configure Terminal Services configuration, user settings, connections and sessions - you may already be familiar with some of them:
- Terminal Services Manager
- Terminal Services Configuration Tool
- Terminal Services Command Line Tools
- Terminal Services Group Policies
- Terminal Services WMI Provider
- Terminal Services extension to Local Users and Groups
- Active Directory Users and Computers
Additionally, connections settings that are not configured at the group, computer or user level can be set in the Remote Desktop Client application on a per-session basis.
