windows 2000 server and remote desktop support
i have downloaded the remote desktop client from microsoft and installed on my windows 2000 server, i have also started the telnet service but can still not remote desktop onto the server, please help as i am now confused as to what to do. i read an article that states it is possible to allow incoming RD sessions on 2000 server but not professional but am not sure how to get this to work.
ok, it is tru you need to install terminal services, but you also need to enable IIS in order for remote desktop to work.
the address will be:
http://yourservername/TSweb
if IIS is not enable it will not show, but in many times the remote desktop service runs and you just need to access it from a pc running windows XP using the remote desktop0 conexion.
%SystemRoot%\System32\msts
try installing IIS if its not installed already or try conecting half of the time is IIS not running the right website for the remote desktop conexion.
