There are numerous ways that Accountants can get the data... TS in admin mode is not one of them.

Besides.. you have to install QB on the server.... you don't want that insanely sucky app on a server.

I use Intuit's webex to remote when I need to.

In theory I agree. But what do you tell a business owner when he wants his CPA to access QB? I say, deploy QB only.

it sounds like you are heading towards allowing 'users' to operate the server, DON'T. A server is not a workstation.

TS Admin mode is designed to allow the administrator(s) access to the server. 2 sessions are the maximum allowed.

Ok. And do you know if here is a limit to how many remote connections can be
made in TS admin mode?

Thanks SG. I have not used TS in 2003 yet, but with Server 2000 there
were
two modes, Application and Remote Administration. Does the second mode
still
exist? And does it run in SBS 2003?


Thanks again.

The SBS itself, cannot, and should not, have Application Mode TS enabled.
Microsoft did us a humongous favour and made it difficult to do so, _NO_
DC
should be an App Mode TS.


SBS can act as TS Licensing server for your AD, it does so in exactly the
same manner as any other 2003 TS License Server (almost).

Can you use Terminal Services in SBS 2003, and if so, are there any
limitations on licesning?

Thank you.
