MCSE/MCITP: Remote Desktop Connection on Windows Server 2003/2008

Remote Desktop Connection is a communication between remote computers to the desktop of local computers, using a language, otherwise known as Protocol in computer terms. The Remote Desktop Protocol does makes this magic happens.

In this special class, we’ll focus on the following;

Enabling Remote Desktop
There is nothing automatic about Remote Desktop, it’s simply enabled in the System Properties, and not just that we can select Remote Object, in this case, Users and Groups that can connect to a local computer via RDP.

Another area of interest is the RDP Port 3389, the functional port for this language. What can we do with it?

Having taken enabling and securing the Ports, we’ll then focus on how to use this wonderful tools.

The Remote Desktop Connection Options and Down Level Clients
The available options are worth considering too, as it will enhance our performance, in terms of network bandwidth and optimization. Of key interest is Local Resources, Programmes and Experience options. Wonderful tools!
We’ll not forget ‘our old brothers’, like Windows 98, 95,). We can make them Remote Desktop relevant too.

Remote Desktop Via Web
Why this? Most times corporate policy forbids computer users from accessing the All Programs, where you have the RDC. So, the only option will be via web. This implies, we must have Internet Information Services(IIS) running.
