Hi people,

I need a solution that allows users to access a simple Win application
running on a remote server through their normal web browser. No
software should be installed on the user side.

The system should be able to serve appox. 20-50 users at the same time,
all running the same application (which weren't designed for multi-user
use originally). Security is a matter, so something supporting
SSL/encryption would be preferrable.

I need the cheapest solution available.

Also, access to a full Windows desktop is not nessecary, I would prefer
if the user could only "see" the application.

I hope someone can give me a hint of what to look at.

Thanks,

Kind Regards,
Jürgen

Hi,
Windows 2000 or 2003 Terminal services and TSWeb client will do basically
what you want. 2000 is the cheapest option if your clients are 2000 or XP
professional.

Yes, in the properties of the AD user account, click the 'Environment' tab,
and check the box "Start the following program at logon", then enter the
path to the program's executable in the next field.

Wendel,

Thank you very much for your reply.

Do you know if it is possible to set up Terminal Services so that the
user will have no access to the Windows desktop but only to a select
application?
(greater security)

Thanks,

Kind Regards,
Jürgen
