Hi. We're running a windows 2000 server with terminal server running, and are using programs that require more than the default 256 colors that the users get when connecting remotely. Is there a way for me to increase the color depth to 24 or 32 bit true Color for all users connecting to the terminal server? Please send answers to eh$REMOVE$FOR$SPAM$erstad@log$REMOVE$FOR$SPAM$tek.no, don't forget to remove everything between $ :-)
not natively not sure, but i think citrix will allow u to do that "Erling Herstad" <Erling Herstad@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:7B70262E-7984-4044-8ECF-627818BC3970@microsoft.com... > Hi. > > We're running a windows 2000 server with terminal server running, and are > using programs that require more than the default 256 colors that the > users > get when connecting remotely.

Citrix Presentation Server and their ICA client are the only solution to provide > 8bit color on 2000 Terminal Services.

Hello again. Thank you for your response. We got 15 Windows 2003 terminal licenses around. I havent installed Win2003 TS yet, since we're uncertain if it will work with our current software. It's is this new software we're testing that requires 16/24-bit color to be of any use. This information will just be another reason to get a new server and upgrade to Win2003 :-) With regards Erling Hersyad "Patrick Rouse" wrote: > Citrix Presentation Server and their ICA client are the only solution to > provide > 8bit color on 2000 Terminal Services.
