Connection of Client's to Terminal Services

This article will throw some light on how to connect a Windows Server 2003 based terminal services client to a terminal server by using Remote Desktop Connection.
For connecting clients to terminal services, you have to open Remote Desktop Connection. For doing this, click Start, select All Programs, click on Accessories. Then click on Communications and then click Remote Desktop Connection. After opening the
Remote Desktop Connection, you have to create a terminal services connection. Follow these steps for doing this:

Open Remote Desktop Connection on your Windows server. Then in the Computer box, type the computer name or the IP address of a terminal server or a computer that has Remote Desktop enabled. If you want to get connected to a remote computer from a console session, then type computer name or IP address /console. Then click on Connect. After that you will view a Windows dialog box. In this dialog box, type your user name, password and domain and then click OK.
After the creation of terminal services connection, you have to save this as a Remote Desktop protocol (.rdp) file. This .rdp file consists of all the information for connecting to a terminal server. This file also contains the optional settings that were performed at the time of saving this file. Follow these steps for saving your connection settings:
You have to open Remote Desktop Connection and then click on Options. Then you have to determine the connection settings that you would like for this connection. After that on the General tab, click Save As. In the File name box, type a file name for the saved connection file and then click on Save.
After saving the connection settings, you can also open any saved connection. For doing this, follow these steps. You have to open Remote Desktop Connection and then click on Open. Then double-click the .rdp file for that connection which you want to open.
