Hello,<br />
<br />
I have a terminal server we are using to host various applications to remote sites. &nbsp;One big problem I keep running into during setup is that any program run from a mapped network drive brings up the &quot;File Download&quot; dialog box - even if it's on a mapped drive mapped to itself. &nbsp;I have heard that the F: drive (being the drive that maps back to a folder on itself) or the server itself must be added to the Local Security Zone.... &nbsp; Either way, any insights?<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Local Security in Windows 2003 Server - Running files from network

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
