This Technical note will describe how to install and use the software needed to use the Windows
2000 Terminal Servers. By logging into the Terminal Servers you can make use of several
engineering applications from home.
Installing the Terminal Server Client on Windows
Windows XP machines come with the Terminal Server Client already installed. If you are using an
older version of Windows, please follow these steps:
1. While connected to the internet point your Internet browser to:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/tools/rdclientdl.mspx
2. Find the file named msrdpcli.exe. Click on this file in order to download it.
3. In the File Download dialog box click on Run this program from its current location
and then click OK.
4. After the download has completed the Security Warning dialog box will appear – click Yes.
5. Next an InstallShield Wizard for Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) will appear -
click Next.
6. In the License Agreement box click on the choice that states I accept the terms in the
license agreement and then click Next.
7. In the Customer Information box enter your information and then click Next.
8. In the next dialog box click Install to install the RDC Client.
9. After the installation is complete the last installation wizard box will appear – click Finish.
10. You must restart your computer and reconnect to the internet in order to use the RDC
Client and before you can connect to a terminal server.
Setting up the Terminal Server Client
1. Go to:
Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications > Remote Desktop Connection
2. In the dialog box, enter CAEN-NTTS.ENGIN.UMICH.EDU and then click Connect:
Figure 1: By default the terminal session will open to the full size of your monitor. To minimize the size of the
terminal screen use the toolbar at the top of the screen as you would any other window.
3. Enter your uniqname and your CAEN Password in the login box. Make sure the Log on to
domain is ENGIN.
4. After entering your correct User name and Password, you will be granted a session to the
terminal server and may use any of the CAEN loaded applications.
Configuring the Terminal Server Client Options
1. Referring back to Figure 1 (the RDC box) – before clicking on Connect, click Options. The
following box will appear with several tabs that allow you to customize your remote desktop
session:
2. General allows for user specific information to be entered. Leave the User name, Password,
and Domain lines blank and do NOT check Save my password. It is NOT recommended
that you save this information for security reasons.
3. Display allows you to set the size of your remote desktop compared to your desktop.
4. Local Resources configures your personal and remote sessions to use sounds, keyboard
functions, and local devices together.
5. Programs allows for you to run a particular program on set-up.
6. It is recommended that you set your connection speed for optimum performance – this is
found under the Experience tab. A few other options are available on this tab such as
bitmap caching.
7. When you are finished configuring your client connection preferences, return to the General
tab and save this connection. Note: Make sure to note the location that you have saved the connection
for future use. You can use this icon to connect to a terminal session with your specified configurations.
