Hi,
I'm searching informations about how to build a terminal server for 500 users,
I would know what amount of memory I have to put in my server, and the
overall material configuration. The server is just a terminal server, the
licence and Active directory servers are on another server.


Thanks

Just a note...

When concerned about performance due to loading, you are almost always
better off going with multiple low cost machines rather than a single
high-end machine. This is because, typically, the greatest bottleneck with
heavily loaded TS implementations is bandwidth of the NICs. The more NICs,
the better loading performance. The most customary way of solving this
bandwidth issue is to use multiple TSs (hence the moniker "TS Farm").
