A Journey to the Center of a Terminal Server

Presented at Microsoft TechEd 2008 in Barcelona, Spain, November 3-7, 2008

As an IT professional responsible for terminal servers and remote application delivery you need to dig beneath the surface if you really want to understand how the technology works. So let’s go on a journey right down to the core. In his session, I introduced the audience to advanced Windows Server 2008 Remote Desktop Services concepts. This includes details about the system processes needed for remote sessions, the graphical user shell supporting RemoteApp programs, and the user logon sequence. I shared in-depth information on terminal server installation and execution modes and their impact on file system and registry. In addition to that, I showed how to modify related system settings in order to fine-tune your terminal servers.
