I heard there was a registry hack to install terminal
services on Win2k. It goes something like this:

1) edit the registry to make win2k pro think it is "server"
2) install terminal services from win2k server CD
3) do not reboot
4) reset registry back to "win2k pro"
5) reboot.

Any Idea is this is doable?

Thanks in advance

Bill
