It sounds as if the error condition is locking or corrupting some file or
other, which causes trouble for the other clients as they try to access the
same file. It won't be an easy one to track down but if you use sysinternals
RegMon and run the app yourself once the error has occurred you may be able to
track down whichever file is giving the trouble and wave it at the vendor.
Despite what the vendor says (would you really expect them to say "yes, that's
our problem and we've never fixed it"?) it only happens on one application
which points the finger firmly in their direction. Ask them what their
recommended terminal services installation method is and make sure you've
matched it.

Subject: [windows2000] Terminal issue
We've been running some WYSE S50 terminals for the past year or so.
Everything works fine except our database client (CDS TIGER). Basically
whenever it has an error, all the other terminal users start having
database client problems until they all log off the client (not the
terminal session) and log back in.
All our other applications work without problems, unfortunately this
program is central to our business process. I've complained to the
vendor on numerous occasions without much luck. They claim to have
plenty of other clients with terminals who don't experience any problems
and essentially hint that it's a problem on my end. The terminal server
is running win2k advanced server, and the sybase database is running on
a w2k3 x64 standard server.
I know we've got some terminal server guru's here, can anyone think of
some things I might check? Possibly my terminal server settings need to
be adjusted or something? At this point it's gotten bad enough we may
have to stop buying terminals and get workstations instead, which isn't
a cheery thought as they're twice as much and take way more maintenance.
