Using Remote Desktop Connection, you can log on to a Windows Terminal Server and use all programs installed on this server. For example, instead of running Microsoft Pocket Word, you can run the desktop version of Microsoft Word.

1. Select Start > Programs > Remote Desktop Connection, or run 'CETSC' from the command prompt.
2. In the Server box, type or select a Terminal Server name or TCP/IP address, or select a server in the drop-down list.
3. Select Connect.
4. In the Remote Desktop Connection window, type your user name, password, and domain (if required), and then select OK.

1. In the Remote Desktop Connection window, select Start > Shutdown.
2. Select Disconnect > OK.

Note  If you previously disconnected from a Terminal Server without ending the session, the Terminal Server will continue to execute any running processes and Remote Desktop Connection can later reconnect to this same session (if your administrator has configured Remote Desktop Connection to reconnect to disconnected sessions).

1. In the Remote Desktop Connection window, select Start > Shutdown.
2. Select Log Off > OK.
