Client wants Terminal Server functionality for five users but does not want
to setup another server, such as SBS. Can Windows Server 2003 be setup as a
Terminal Server? No other servers on the network, no Active Directory, no
Domain Controller.
Thank you,
Steve

Yes, you can just make it a standalone server in a workgroup.

Re: Does TS 2003 require a domain controller

I agree with Vera but use within a domain makes the management easier.
