  Short and sweet, but useful nonetheless. Though I don't have a Server 2012 machine myself, I've wondered about configuration needs like this.

  So, I don't have to set up a RDS License server and have RDS CALs and add the 'Remote Desktop Session Host' feature to the server's I want to connect to and make sure all the user names are in the Active Directory 'Remote Desktop Users' built-in group?

  Correct Ausrick - the RDSH stuff is only needed it you're turning the server into an (old phrase) terminal server. Cheers, Rob.

  I had forgotten I wrote this post! :)

  Another useful tool to use for RDP is something called 'Remote Desktop Connection Manager'.

  It's more powerful that what comes with RSAT!!! You guys are going to love it!

  I have been using version 2.2 for about 3 years, but last Nov, they updated it to 2.7 and I have to say, version 2.7 is great.

  Have a go yourself - the settings mentioned above still apply, but to be able to manage multiple RDP screens from a single application is just awesome.

  PS: You don't need RSAT to run this.

  PPS: Look out for a new post detailing RDCM 2.7 in the coming days!
