Terminal Services provide new options for application deployment, more efficient access to data over low bandwidth, reuse of older hardware, remote management, and other tasks.

Running on Windows Server 2003, the Terminal Server feature gives users at client computers throughout your network access to Windows-based programs. With Terminal Server, you can provide a single point of installation that allows multiple users access to Windows Server 2003 operating system desktops, where they can run programs, save files, and use network resources, all from a remote location, as if these resources were installed on their own computers. Microsoft Terminal Server facilitates centralized computing. Applications can be accessed via Microsoft’s RDP client or via Citrix’s ICA client.
