What applications? My take is that Terminal Services works best for one server running one application and accessed by many users. For the "car rental" application of 5,000 users all using one application - that is a good approach.
But for "normal" "professional workers", who typically use 5 or 6 applications that need to be integrated together in some form or another, then you don't get the savings that you might otherwise look for.

If you done this, how is it going? What are your top five recommendations? What are the top five items on your wish list? If you are seriously thinking about doing this, when do you think you will start moving? As a footnote, we have enough licenses for about 15% of the company and are thinking seriously about making a much bigger move in this direction starting in about a year. So far, I can see some interesting conflicts with Security, VoIP and NetMeeting. So far the hottest button on my wish list would be for a range of PocketPC devices (lots of form factors) that were both good VoIP phones (Cisco SIP) and with Pocket Office applets that worked one heck of a lot better with big Office on Citrix. I get really annoyed with that PC Companion paradigm. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
