Hello

Sorry that I must write this question in this category but the W2k section
doesn't work at this moment.

I have a question about a W2k Terminal Server on which it is not possible to
configure a color which is greater than 256. If I try to configure on a XP
machine in the rdp options that it should use more than 256k, it don't work.
Do you have an idea how a can configure a greater color resolution ?

Thanks
Peter
 
Re: W2k Terminal Server - more as 256 colors

You're in the right newsgroup, Peter, this one is for all versions
of TS.

Unfortunately, you can't get more than 256 colours when connecting
to a W2K TS. It's a limitation in the server, irrespective of the
capabilities of the client.
