We're into the Home Stretch! It's Day Twenty. Only one week to go. Today we're going to talk about some RDC enhancements and also talk about Administrative sessions in Terminal Services. So without further ado let's begin with Administrative Sessions ...
When the Terminal Server role is installed on Windows Server 2008, remote connections initiated using the Remote Desktop Client application consume Client Access Licenses (CAL's). To administer the machine remotely without consuming a CAL, you can use the /admin switch when launching the Remote Desktop Connection client application (e.g. "mstsc.exe /admin"). Using the /admin switch, you can have a maximum of two active administrative sessions, including the one on the physical console.
