My problem with Terminal server is that you can't talk to a customer about what is seen on screen. Also, you can't have someone else log on to the box and both of you discuss what you are seeing. TS sessions are independent "fake" sessions of the console (oversimplification). I think Terminal Server for Win 2003 may have added another option to be able to get to the console, but that one is definitely single-user-at-a-time-only restricted. I don't know if all this is still pertinent to the original topic. Maybe someone just wanted a way to run VFP apps remotely. TS works well with that (as does VNC of course). And yep, you can do most things from TS as you could from the console, but since my VNC set up gives it all to me I haven't bothered with TS in most cases. -Charlie _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
