Terminal Services Manager

When you launch the Terminal Services Manger administrative tool, you are presented with a list of all servers that have Terminal Services enabled in the domain. Using this tool, you can easily see to which servers users are connected, from which client devices they're accessing the servers, and which processes and applications they are running in their sessions. Figure 4.16 shows the Terminal Services Manger interface.

Figure 4.16: The Terminal Services Manager interface.

If you are familiar with the Win2K Terminal Services Manager, you will see some nice improvements in the version included with WS2K3. First, the new version offers a This computer node, which gives you quick access to sessions on the server to which you are logged on. Second, there is a Favorite Servers node, which allows you to quickly access specific terminal servers that you frequently administer. Finally, for performance, the All Listed Servers node is not expanded by default, so you no longer have to wait for all terminal servers to be enumerated before using the tool.
