Re: Windows Server 2008 TS Error.

I do Know about Group Policies to block access to certain Folder/Drives. Cant
I use any other method to achieve the same.It is security breach and any
technical user can play havoc with DC.I dont know it is default feature of
Terminal Service to expose drive into open or not.If it yes, then it is
colossal security flaw.what i mean there should be a prevention to local
drive of TS server.

Now, i am able to logon using domain users thanks to modifcation of local

i have installed word viewer on WIN2K8 and provided access to WINXP client
through TS RemoteApp Manager. I can run application at WINXP client
successfully.
one thing which is quite alarming is that after opening WordViewer at client
side.When i goto File/Open, it gives domain user access to root of c driver
and shows my local drive as network drive.
How can i prevent users from accessing drives of WIN2K8 server.??

Is the terminal server also a domain controller? If not, you need to
add the users to the Remote Desktop User group that is local to the
terminal server.
