Microsoft RDP

The Terminal Services Client application on the thin client accesses Microsoft Terminal Services. You
can make Microsoft RDP available on the network using any of the following services:
●
Microsoft Windows 2000/2003/2008 Server with Terminal Services installed
●
Microsoft Windows Server 2000/2003/2008
NOTE: If a Windows 2000/2003/2008 Server is used for both of these session services (ICA and RDP),
a Terminal Services Client Access Licenses TSCAL) server must also reside somewhere on the
network. Client Access licenses permit clients to use the terminal, file, print, and other network services
provided by Windows 2000/2003/2008 Server. The server grants temporary licenses (on an individual
device basis) that are good for 90 days. Beyond that, you must purchase TSCALs and install them in
the TSCAL server. You cannot make a connection without a temporary or permanent license.
For additional information about Microsoft Terminal Services, see the Microsoft Web site at

Terminal Emulation Support

All WES- or XPe-based thin client models include terminal emulation software to support computing on
legacy platforms. The terminal emulation software uses the Telnet protocol to communicate with the
computing platform.

Support Services

Altiris Deployment Server

The Altiris Deployment Solution™ support service is available for the thin client network. This service
provides an easy-to-use, integrated tool that allows remote management of thin clients throughout their
life cycle, including initial deployment, ongoing management, and software deployment.
You must install the Altiris Deployment Solution on a Windows 2000/2003/2008 Server, or a workstation
capable of logging on as administrator to a domain that provides specified network services which can
access a software repository for the thin client. The Altiris Deployment Solutions software uses a Preboot
Execution Environment (PXE) session and protocol to reimage or recover the thin client. PXE upgrade
services are built into the Altiris Deployment Solution.
For additional information about the Altiris Deployment Solution, refer to the Altiris Web site at
