integration of published applications.

NOTE: If a Windows server is used, a Terminal Services Client Access Licenses (TSCAL) server
must also reside somewhere on the network. A Client Access License (CAL) permits a client to use
the services provided by the Windows server. The server grants temporary licenses (on an individual
device basis) that are good for 90 days. Beyond that, TSCALs must be purchased and installed on
the TSCAL server. A client cannot make a connection without a temporary or permanent license.
Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol
Make Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) available on the network using Microsoft Terminal
Services on a Windows server. Use the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) utility to establish a
connection to a Windows terminal server or to access remote applications using Microsoft RDP.
To open the RDC utility:
▲
Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > Remote Desktop Connection.
