Windows 2000 Terminal Server Colors

[DViper]

Hey All,

I am fairly certain that I am correct on this, but just to be sure, here is the question. Is there any way to increase the the color depth of a terminal server client in Windows 2000 to something above 256 colors?

Thanks!

Are you connecting via RDP or ICA?

We are using RDP

Check out this posting...it looks like the RDP 5.x client with Win2000 only supports a max of 256 colors.

Will Windows 2003 Terminal Services provide this?

in Windows2003 you have 65K colors in TS mode.
in windows 2000 only 256max. the Citrix add ons might supply more than 256 on 2000 platform.
