Hello Everyone--

I have about 90 computers on a large domain controlled network and I would like to be able to administer them remotely. I know about terminal services and the computers that I administer have terminal services installed on them. When I try to connect to them over the network it says that terminal services isn't allowing connections. I've seen people saying this can't be done but I've also seen people that have it enabled but they don't know how to do it. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
 
One group says it can't be done and the other group doesn't know how to do it. Hope you have better luck here.
 
Terminal Server is supported only on the Windows Server OS, not the client OS. The only thing that approaches a TS Host role is the Windows XP client which has the Remote Desktop feature.

Any Windows client can use the Remote Desktop client software to access either Terminal Server sessions, or an XP Pro acting as Remote Desktop host.
