W2k Terminal Server - more as 256 colors

[Guest Peter Bauer]

Hello

 

Sorry that I must write this question in this category but the W2k section

doesn't work at this moment.

 

I have a question about a W2k Terminal Server on which it is not possible to

configure a color which is greater than 256. If I try to configure on a XP

machine in the rdp options that it should use more than 256k, it don't work.

Do you have an idea how a can configure a greater color resolution ?

 

Thanks

Peter

You're in the right newsgroup, Peter, this one is for all versions

of TS.

 

Unfortunately, you can't get more than 256 colours when connecting

to a W2K TS. It's a limitation in the server, irrespective of the

capabilities of the client.
