Am I right in saying that the original poster is wanting to use VNC from somewhere else to "see" the terminal server sessions of the users who are connected from the dumb terminals?
If this is the case, then I think you're right in saying it won't work. VNC can be used on TS but only to allow you to remote access the console session. For example, I could VNC right now to TERM01 and logon to the console. But I wouldn't be able to VNC into a user who happens to be running a TS session on there. My instant reaction was "Why would you want to do this, doesn't TS have shadowing already" but I stopped myself as shadowing is a feature of Citrix Presentation Server on top of Terminal Server. Whilst suggesting Citrix is a bit of sledge hammer to crack a nut, if does work very, very well and adds lots of other useful features that native TS doesn't support.

I'm not sure. I'll forward this to the list for you... I'm not sure I consider myself an "expert" but I will admit to being experienced with VNC. :-) My *gut feeling* is that it's not going to work, unless you get the "enterprise" version, because VNC Free version is incompatible with Remote Desktop, which is basically another "flavor" of TS. Anyway, I'm CC-ing this to the list so that, hopefully, it'll get an answer. If I'm wrong about TS and VNC, I'll gladly sit corrected. I can only go by what's been posted on the list before, as I have no experience with TS and VNC. _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
