More than 2 simultaneous access for Admin

[Guest seb]

HI ,

 

we have an application server where developpers need to access in Rdp.

 

They are local admin , but there are three users and it could be

simultaneously.

 

I think the rdp access for admin is limited to two users at the same time.

 

Should I turn it in application mode to authorize these accesses ?

(we have terminal licenses and licenses in the domain)

 

is it dangerous to turn in application mode a server where the software is

already installed and that was not a server dedicated to do that works ... in

fact no simple users will need to reach that application by Rdp ....that

aplication is link to a database and an IIs server ..

 

hope I was clear

 

thanks in advance

Yes, installing Terminal Services *after* installing the

application could potentially break things.

 

Assuming that the server runs Windows 2003, you can actually have 3

concurrent administrative connections: the 2 normal ones and 1 to

the console of the server, with

"mstsc /console" (without the quotes).
