  2. What are we going to cover ? • Because Terminal Services isn’t new, is it ? True Type Device Support Server Roles Display Changes SingleSign-on SessionBroker RemoteApp TS Gateway TS Web-Access

  3. Server 2008 Virtualization Technologies Server Virtualization Presentation Virtualization Windows Server Virtualization Management Desktop Virtualization Application Virtualization

  4. Support for Client side improvements Making Terminal Services a first class citizen

  5. Device support • Can use client’s • Audio • Printer • Clipboard • Smart Card • Serial port • Drives • Camera / MP3 player

  6. RDC display changes • Display improvements • Display was 4:3 and capped at 1600x1200 • Now can be any size, including spanned monitors • ClearType supported • Vista-style desktop experience supported • Display prioritization • Print jobs don’t affect user experience

  7. Experience options (off vs. on)

  8. Single sign-on • Requires Vista or Server 2008 as the client • Group Policy setting • /Computer Configuration /Administrative Templates /System /Credentials Delegation. • In “Allow Delegating Default Credentials”Add termsrv/Servername

  9. Server Changes

  10. Terminal Services Roles

  11. TS Remote App

  12. TS Remote App • Client sees an application not a desktop • Applications identified at the server • Published in one of 3 ways • .MSI file • .RDP file • TS Web access

  13. Demo TS Remote App

  14. TS Web access Making available apps browsable

  15. TS Web Access • Can embed TS client object on web page • Since NT 4.0 !! • Now have ability to launch apps or desktop • Pull down RDP file from web page • Run normal client

  16. Demo TS Web Access

  17. TS Session broker Moving from servers to farms

  18. TS Session Broker • Load balances sessions to terminal servers • Basic operation • User connects to a terminal server • Server knows it is in a farm • Server asks broker “where should this go ?” • User session is re-directed

  19. Broker’s decision process • Does this user have a session ? • Reconnecting an open session • Second TS App session • If so connect to the same server • Does the server participate in load balancing ? • If not let it have the session • Otherwise, which servers allow new sessions ? • Calculate sessions / relative weight • Connect to server with lowest relative load

  20. Server roles in a farm • Broker • Tracks sessions • Redirector • All servers which users initially connect to • Connection might be round robin DNSor more sophisticated • Terminal server • Runs the user’s workload

  21. Configuring Farm membership • Group Policy • Or TS configuration

  22. TS Gateway Or “VPN considered harmful”

  23. TS Gateway • Tunnel RDP using “RPC over HTTP” technology • Allow client to connect from anywhere

  24. Adds Additional roles...

  25. Configuration • Client • Setting in Group policy, or per connection • Server • Install role • Choose a Certificate • Set a Connection Access policy • Who and How • Set a Resource Access Policy • What • Multiple Servers can form farms • Publish with ISA...

  26. Demo TS Gateway

  27. Combining Web Access with gateway • The Apps on offer in Web accesscan specify the gateway (And can specify the TS Farm) • So publish the Web Access page andpublish the gateway .... • Users get a portal of published LOB apps Accessible from wherever they are

  28. Conclusions • Publish Apps: not desktops • Better client experience • Multiple publication options • Anywhere Access • Access Mail, IM anywhere, why not L.o.B apps ? • Scale with server farms • Third parties (e.g. Citrix) still add value
