Re: 2008 Questions

No. You wrote that you wanted the ".. server locked down so that
only the app can be run".
If your users need to run more than a single application, you don't
define a starting application.

Will this prevent the taskbar from showing? There are other
potential apps the users might be using and we want them to be
able to see the taskbar.

I have a couple of questions:

1. I would like to set up an auto login link for terminal
services. I have an app that I want to run but have the
server locked down so that only the app can be run. I know I
can set it up in TS Configuration but it prevents me from
logging in under my own credentials for admin purposes. Is
there another way I can set it up? I've also tried saving the
credentials in the link but it doesn't stick. I would love to
use RemoteApp but it just isn't feasible at this time.

2. When logging in with the restricted user, the various 2008
splash screens come up. Is there a way to eliminate them?
.
