A. Windows 2000 service pack 1 and above CD supplies an add-on toTerminal Services which allows a terminal services session to be imbedded into aweb page using a supplied ActiveX control.
It does not have to be installed on a Windows 2000 Terminal Services serverbut does require NT Server 4.0 or above with IIS 4.0 or above installed
To install perform the following:
Logon as Administrator to the IIS server machine
Insert the Windows 2000 Service Pack x CD
Move to the VALUEADDECP folder
Double click Tswebsetup.exe
Click Yes to install the Terminal Services Web Client package
Click Yes to the license agreement
You will be asked for the location to install the sample pages, e.g. d:InetpubwwwrootTSWeb and click OK
You may be prompted that software is trying to be installed with a certificate and accept it
You will be asked if you wish to read the release notes, click No
Click OK to the install completion message
The ActiveX Client Control setup program creates a Tsweb directory under the WWWRoot directory of the target computer, and copies the following files into it:
mstscax.cab
default.htm
connect.asp
manyservers.htm
Once installed you will be able to connect to
http:///TSWeb
where you can enter a server name and connect. You can alsochoose to have full screen or a specific size.

Once connected you will be asked for a username/password/domainunless you click 'Send logon information for this connection' which enables youto send as part of the connection request.
Another file, manyservers.htm is supplied which allows multipleconnections on a single page.
