No, that isn't possible. Can you not install the exe on the Win2008
Terminal Server?

Re: Windows 2008 RemoteApp - publish exe from another server

Hi Rob,

At present I did what you mentioned. I installed the client .exe in terminal
server 2008 and published that in RemoteApp. The scenario is, this .exe which
is installed is to communicate with my other server which has SQL Databse, so,
when the clients RDP through the 2008 TS, in turn this exe over the LAN
environment has to communicate with my SQL database server and there is a
delay. So, I wanted to publish the .exe on the SQL Database server in the
TS2008, so that, I can minimise the communication between my TS 2008 .exe and
SQL Database over the LAN.

Please advice.

Is the LAN connection really the bottleneck? They're usually pretty quick.

I don't see any alternative. You probably don't want to install the
database on the TS - it would slow down SQL.
