I connected to my XP Box at work from my XP Box at home over a VPN connection. I disconnected my VPN connection while connected to my Work XP Box. After waiting a minute or two I reconnected to the VPN and the Terminal Service session picked right back up, and I had a different IP! So I don't think it has to deal with Windows 2003 Terminal Services, rather it is more of an XP terminal service feature. Cool stuff nevertheless.

How cool is that. I never noticed it before.

You have several new features assosiated with TS in server 2003.
Among them are the keep alive connections group policy setting (rdp 5.2 required)

This setting is useful when a client are connecting via a WAN link or via the Internet. By enabling this GPO the terminal server will check the session state between it and the client instead of the default behavior, which more or less assumes the session state. The benefit realized by enabling keepalive connections is that if there is a network hiccup that causes a break in the network connection between the client and the server the session will be placed into a disconnected state. Should the client attempt to reconnect to the Terminal Server it will connect back to the existing session instead of being forced into a new session. This prevents the client's current work from sitting idle in a session it can no longer reconnect to without administrative intervention...

hey guys. i need help with termserv. once i have the server, how do i connect to it via a client? thanks! i probably won't check back here so please email/msn: jaskolak@bellsouth.net or AIM: jasonmog

oops, email: jaskolka@bellsouth.net

We are software developers based in New Zealand, and a number of our clients run our
applications under terminal services. I'm not sure if 2003 offers anything different here, but is there an api that will allow us to find the workstation i/d associated with a terminal services session?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Dear All,

In Terminal Services:

1. How to achieve the IP address of the client connected to a Server through terminal services ?
2. Is the Information (IP address,user logged,and process the user is using written to any windows file) ?

If you know anything about this could you please pass me some information ?


Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Could anyone tell me how I could pass on windows login credentials (User Id and password) to the TS Server (Windows 2003). I am looking at being able to connect as a specifc user using login parameters in the URL link on another server.

This would be a Web/Browser based TS connection with no TS Client involved.

Thanks,
Krishna
