Remote Desktop Client 6.1 (RDP 6.1) installation on Windows 2003 Server |
|

Location: Blogs Windows Terminal Services 200X & Citrix Blog |
 | | Posted by: Alex Juschin Account | Monday, September 15, 2008 | Many of you know already that there is RDP 6.1 client for Windows XP SP2, but some of you have been looking for a way to install RDP 6.1 on the Windows 2003 Server. As such Windows 2003 Server support only RDP 6.0 which you can obtain either by download or by an update from Windows Update. The Version that comes with the current SP2 version of W2003 is 5.2.
So to Install the RDP 6.1 on the Windows 2003 first download the 6.1 Client from Microsoft webpage:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=952155
after you downloaded this small 1,6MB package go to the folder where you downloaded it to and Right Click on the File, Choose "Compatibility" Tab and select "Windows XP", click on Apply and OK.
Now you can start the installation without Windows saying it wasn't meant for this OS.
You dont need to reboot your Server and can start it with mstsc from the Run menu right away. Now you have version 6.1
TSWEB, RemoteApp's, SPAN monitors work just fine. I will test the other features and update this blog soon.

I also am testing TS Server 2008 remote apps with another Server with just happens to be 2003Srv -and this helps things as i don't need one more virtual machine to start just to testing things.. . . |
