The following
sections describe how to use this application.
TIP You must make any changes you want to the Remote Desktop Connection application configuration
before you connect to the remote server. Once you make the connection, you can??™t change
the configuration. Consequently, it??™s always a good idea to create a complete configuration first,
save it to disk, and then reopen it as needed for a particular server. Otherwise, you??™ll spend a lot
of time reconfiguring Remote Desktop Connection every time you want to use it.
Creating a Connection
Before you can use the Remote Desktop Connection application (I??™ll refer to it simply as Remote
Desktop from this point on), you need to set up Server Core to provide Terminal Server connectivity.
The ???Configuring the Server for Initial Use??? section of Chapter 1 tells you how to perform this task.
Once the server is ready for a connection, you must configure Remote Desktop to make the connection.
The following procedure helps you make the connection.
1. Start the application and click Options. The General tab shows the connection options as
shown in Figure 2.8.
2. Type the server name or select it from the drop-down list in the Computer field.
