<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a situation where a Windows 2003 Terminal Server (member server) in application mode will be hosting a business application that already is a client/server application. &nbsp;To save money the customer would like to use the client portion of the business application on all computers (Windows XP) on the LAN and then use the Remote Desktop Client for a few remote employees through IPSec when they are working from home. This will obviously cut down on the Terminal Service licensing costs. <br />
<br />
I was wondering if anyone had any similar experience with this scenario in general realizing that the application is the variable here and if this is possible. &nbsp;Thank you in advance.<br />

Can Windows 2003 Terminal Server Be Used by Both Remote Desktop Clients and Clients of the Hosted Application?

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).
