One of the reasons for this also is the Windows 2000 terminal services is
the same desktop as Windows 2000 Professional.  Both are Windows 5.0.  This
is no longer the case.  Windows 2003 is actually Windows 5.2 while XP is
5.1.  There are actually new features on 2003 that do not exist on XP.

The biggest gotcha for 2003 Terminal Services is that you will need a TS
license of each user that connects to this server (even Windows 2000
workstations).  Windows 2000 servers does not need a TS license for Windows
2000 workstations because the TS CAL is built in a Win2k machine.

Hi,

I've got 20 NT4tse Metaframe 1.8 servers to upgrade to XPe.  We are =
still an
NT4 domain although a project will be starting soon to move to Windows =
2003
AD. My question is, do we go for Windows 2003 or 2000? =20

I don't need to do a straight upgrade of these servers, I will build a =
new
box with all my apps and then mirror it.

Any gotchas with 2003?

Thanks

Richard
