Brian,
In your paper comparing Citrix, Terminal Server, New Moon, Jetro, and DAT
you didn't include Netilla. Is there a reason?
I'm frequently questioned about why we use Citrix instead of Netilla. Very
rarely are the others mentioned. I've never used Netilla so this is really
just a curiosity. My real concern now is whether to use anything on top of
W2K3 (I pre-ordered your book a few weeks ago so I'm really glad it's out).
Thanks, Jeff

Subject: [THIN] New Book from Ron Oglesby and Brian Madden
Hello All,
As many of you know, Ron and I have been working on a book together for
almost a year now. (In fact, a lot of people on this list helped out with
this book.) Well, we're happy to announce that it's finally done and
available now from Amazon.com.
The book is "Terminal Services for Microsoft Windows Server 2003: Advanced
Technical Design Guide." It's similar to the two Citrix books I've done in
the past, except this book focuses completely on Terminal Server. It's a
technical design guide, so it shows you how the stuff works and what it
takes to design a solid system. Oh, and it's not approved or authorized by
Microsoft, so we show you how stuff /really/ works. :-)
We wrote this book since the new and improved features of Terminal Server in
Windows 2003 caused a lot of people to choose to use Terminal Server all by
itself without using MetaFrame at all. People always asked us, "Do I need
Citrix?" or "Can Terminal Server 2003 really do xxx?" You can find out in
this book. We also cover all the strategies for using the third party tools.
Here's a link to get the book from Amazon.com:

Also, we made the printing chapter of the book available as a free download
a few months ago. In case you missed it:

Finally, I still have the paper I wrote with Gabe Knuth a few months ago
comparing Citrix, Terminal Server, New Moon, Jetro, and DAT:
