Hi,

Remote desktop service is old name and it is for single user connection so on normal pc

Terminal Services is exactly what you need.

i am using server 2008 standard, not R2, thats why i can not see "remote desktop services" from server manager, but i have bought "window remote desktop services" user CAL, can this apply to terminal services from 2k8 standard ?
