Can you run Terminal Services Manager on a Pro workstation 1

Is there a way you can connect to a Windows 2000 Professional workstation through Terminal Services Client?

Don't believe so, Terminal Server is only provided as part of 2000 Server not Professional.

If it doesn't leak oil it must be empty!!

you can install Terminal service on win2K profesional and you can connect from win2k prof to any server on your network

Knowledge is a key of success.

I'm aware that you can install the client on Professional, I was just wondering if you can connect from a Professional box to another Professional box. All documentation I've read states that you cannot but I could have sworn that a co-worker of mine used to do it but I'm starting to think that she must have been using PC Anywhere or something like that.

You can't host a terminal session on 2000 Pro. An alternative is to use VNC such as

You can also download vnc from

I installed
Terminal Services Manager on my Pro workstation and its working good. i can logon any server on my network and i can see and use all desktop of that server. But i am not shure about workstation to workstaion it works or not. But with VNC you can do same job even from your workstation to any computer in the world (if that computer also running VNC Srver and you know IP and password)

yes you can telnet between 2000 pro workstations. both sides need to have the telnet service started (default manual, off)
