Server configuration

Server configuration

Server-wide settings can be configured in several ways:

  • with the Terminal Services Configuration tool on the server.
    If settings in tscc.msc are greyed out and you can't change them, it means that these settings are configured and enforced through a Group Policy.
  • with Group Policy Objects (GPOs)
    This is the recommended method. Gives you centralized control and ensures that identical settings are configured on multiple servers.
  • with the Terminal Services WMI provider.
    Be sure to read the TS Remote Configuration Primer Part 1 and Part II
