Karen, I do not think you would want TS running on a workstation. The user could restart and really bollix things up, not to mention that their resources would be shared with the remote users. That would not be a pretty picture.
TS should be on its own server with plenty of memory. Understand that TS creates a virtual machine for each session. In effect each login is a new temporary computer on the network.

Yes this probably is a "really old" Novell OS. But you're saying that I can use Terminal Services on a windows workstation that is on the network? I wasn't sure sure if TS needed to be on a server or whether the server-side could actually be on a workstation. If that's the case, would the TS server-side already be available on an XP workstation? Thanks for the help, and please excuse the probable misuse of terminology.... Karen << Can I use Terminal Services on a server with Novell? Or is there any other option? Even something like logmein or gotomypc would allow only one person to enter into one computer, right? >> If this is really an old Novell network, running the Novell OS, no "normal" remote connection software could be run on the server. You would have to seek an old Novell-specific solution, and I can't remember such a thing existing. If you want to use Windows based remote connection of any kind you'd need to provide access to a Windows workstation on the same network and "remotely" administer the server from that machine. -- Larry
