Hi
I'd like that when the user logs into their pc, it goes straight to Terminal
Services. That is, they don't ever see their own desktop.
Is this possible? If so, how?
Thanks
Simeon

Hmmm - you could set up an RDP shortcut in their Startup folders, I guess.
There may be other ways, too.
But at that point, why not just get thin clients instead of PCs? Cheaper!

Could you clarify how I would set up an RDP shortcut? I'm unsure of what you
mean.
Thanks

Create an RDP shortcut by running the RD client, configuring it, and use
"save as" to save it as an .rdp file somewhere on the hard drive..
Then add that to Startup.
