Hi:
I am runninig Terminal Server on Windows 2003 Standard Server SP2. I was
reading alot about Terminal Server, as this is my first experience, and I was
reading about a special way to handle users at logon when you are running
just one application on the Terminal Server. I can not find that information
again. That is what I am looking for. I think it was on the Microsoft stie,
but if so, I linked to it from the Vera Noest site. Vera, your site and
links have been invaluable to me... Thanks!!

Can anyone provde me a link to the info I am looking for??

I will have a question later about printing, but I may find that answer in
my futher reading.

Thanks,
fox7

RE: Terminal Server, running just one App

Sounds like you want to define a "Starting application".
This can be done in several places: in Terminal Services
Configuration, in the rdp client, or (highly recommended!) in a
Group Policy which is linked to the Terminal Server OU.

You'll find the setting here:

Computer Configuration - Administrative templates - Windows
components - Terminal Services
"Start a program on connection"

Note that you will want to avoid that this also applies to
Administrators, so you'll need to apply this also:
