How network discovery works in terminal server?

[Guest Jassi]

Hi,

 

I am developing an application which shows the user all the terminal servers

in a network.

 

So can you explain the working of network discovery or direct me to some

article which does so.

You could use "query termserver" and then pipe the output into "query

user". Or use WTSEnumerateServers. Check on MSDN:

Hi,

 

If I use WTSEnumerateServers API then whether it will be enumerate all the

Terminal Servers in the domain even if there is no Active Directory in that

domain.

 

Is it correct that if there is no active directory in the network the

Terminal Server uses NetBios broadcast to discover other terminal servers in

the network

else if there is Active Directory then it use LDAP query to active directory?

I'm sorry, I haven't the faintest idea.

Someone else, maybe?
