134 | Lesson 6 Terminal Services, also known as Remote Desktop Services, is a type of thin-client termi- nal server computing. It allows client computers to access and use applications loaded on the server, as well as to connect to and take control of a server. Thin-client computers and PCs can connect to servers running Terminal Services. The service uses port 3389 and is also known as Microsoft WBT Server. WBT stands for Windows-Based Terminal. You can configure a set of applications that thin-clients are allowed to access, or you can set up Terminal Services to allow full administrative access to the server. When clients connect, they do so with the Remote Desktop program, which is based on the Remote Desktop Protocol RDP. CONFIGURE TERMINAL SERVICES GET READY. In this exercise, you will learn how to configure Terminal Services on a Windows Server for administrative access. You will also learn how to connect to the server and control it from a client computer.

1. Go to your Windows Server. In this exercise, we are using a Windows Server 2008

computer as our Terminal Services server.

2. Install and configure Terminal Services:

a. Go to the Server Manager console window. You can get to this in various ways,

such as by clicking Start Administrative Tools Server Manager. b. Click Roles. c. Click Add Roles. d. Click Next for the Before You Begin screen. e. Check Terminal Services and click Next. f . Read the Terminal Services introduction and click Next. g. In the Role Services screen, check Terminal Server and TS Licensing. Then click Next. h. Click Next again. i. In the Authentication Method screen, select the Do not require Network Level Authentication radio button. Then click Next. Keep in mind that many network environments will require Network Location Awareness NLA, but for this exercise, we will disable it.

j. In the Licensing Mode screen, select the Confi gure later radio button, then

click Next. k. Leave the User Groups screen as the default and click Next. You can add groups of users at any time to Terminal Services. For now, we will just allow Administrator access.

l. Leave the default setting for the TS Licensing Confi guration screen. By default

it is This workgroup, but if you are part of a domain, you can add the server to that as well. Click Next.

m. Review the Confi rmation screen. Your results should be similar to Figure 6-4.

Then click Install. Working with Terminal Services Terminal Services allows client computers to control a server remotely or use applica- tions that have been loaded on the server. It uses port 3389. In order for clients to con- nect to a server running Terminal Services, they must run the Remote Desktop Protocol or be thin-client computers. CERTIFICATION READY How do you configure Terminal Services? 3.5 Terminal Services utilizes port 3389. TAKE NOTE
