Hi All,

I have a Terminal server. I have only one Domain. I setup some of users to
access Terminal server. Now, I want to do is:

1. I want the user to use Remote Desktop to login Terminal server with some
limit, for instance, when the use login to Terminal server, the user could
not see Control panel, could not use RUN command from Start, colud not see
most of icons on desktop, except a few application software icon, which I
want the user to use them.

2. Another things is that I want the user still use their user profile to
login to any computers.

Can anybody help me out the problem? thanks in advance,

The first part you could do using group policies, Create an OU in active
directory for the terminal server and move the Terminal server computer
account to it. Then apply a group policy to the OU. You can find out what
policies you need to set using google.

If you want to the users to have the same profiles use roaming profiles.
Again search goolge and it will tell you how to set this up.

But make sure that users have 2 different profiles (whether roaming
or local): one for their workstations and one for the TS. Using the
same profile on both will lead to profile corruption.

Hi David,

Thank you so much for your help.

What you mean that "move the Terminal server computer account to it"? You
mean is that I create an OU in active director, (I have create user account
under User directory), then, I move the user account to the Terminal server
OU. Right?

If I do this, I am thinking that if the user login to any another client
computer, the user should be get a desktop same as when the user login
Terminal server. I don't want to it. I want to separate it. I want that when
the user login to client pc, they use regular profile, but when the user
remote desktop login to Termimal server, they use a limit profile.

Thanks a lot,

No In active Directory they will be a computer object for the terminal
server. Move that into the OU

Have a look at the user account in AD, you will see that there is a
tab for their normal profile and one for their TS profile.
You can also set a TS profile in a GPO.

And I can recommend my own website :-)
