Terminal Services v. VNC

2004-01-03 Thread Mike Miller
A friend sent me a message (not to this list), which is appended below. He claims that Windows Terminal Services will do for me what VNC does, but Terminal Services runs much faster. I'm wondering if he is correct. I think he's wrong about bmp encoding, for one, but is any of it correct? Thanks

While it may be faster for users over dialup, it does not do all that vnc does. Across a lan, it's a wash. There are several other issues, the main ones being: 1 - licensing, you have to have the right combination of windows products to be legal. ( or even to function ) 2 - Multi-platform
