Hi,

I am developing an application which shows the user all the terminal servers
in a network.

So can you explain the working of network discovery or direct me to some
article which does so.

thanks
 
Re: How network discovery works in terminal server?

You could use "query termserver" and then pipe the output into "query
user". Or use WTSEnumerateServers. Check on MSDN:

Re: How network discovery works in terminal server?

Hi,

If I use WTSEnumerateServers API then whether it will be enumerate all the
Terminal Servers in the domain even if there is no Active Directory in that
domain.

Is it correct that if there is no active directory in the network the
Terminal Server uses NetBios broadcast to discover other terminal servers in
the network
else if there is Active Directory then it use LDAP query to active directory?

I'm sorry, I haven't the faintest idea.
Someone else, maybe?
