Windows Server 2003 SP1 has goodies for Terminal Server
ENT News | at | by Mike
The first service pack for Windows Server 2003 isn't just a security booster. It adds several features to Windows Terminal Services, Microsoft explained in a white paper out this week.
New SP1 features for Terminal Services include fallback printer capability, server authentication for connections, Group Policy settings for licensing and a Group Policy setting to automatically launch a program on connection to a Terminal Server.
Terminal Services is Microsoft's technology for hosting and running applications on a server that can be delivered to Windows and non-Windows clients without much client-side processing. The approach helps organizations deploy applications rapidly, manage applications that require frequent updates and wring life out of older clients or thin clients that can't handle large local applications.
