This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
SamuraiCrow is correct, but you also need to make sure TS is running in Application Mode (not Remote Administration mode) for a non-administrator to log in.
That is changed in Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Windows Setup. Every time you save you are prompted for the TS mode.

You should also be aware that TS can't be run on a Domain Controller - with SBS 2k3 you need to run a seperate member server for TS. This is by design (for security reasons) according to Microsoft, and just coincidentally requires you to purchase another server license.

The admin group is a member of this group by default on a 2003 server. Any other users (or groups) connecting to the machine need to be added to this local terminal server group manually.
