6.6 Terminal Services Client

Using the

Terminal Services Client, you can log onto a PC running Terminal Services or

Remote Desktop and use all of the programs available on that PC from your mobile device.

For example, instead of running

Pocket Word, you can run the PC version of Word and

access all of the

.doc files on that PC from your Pocket PC Phone.

Connecting to a Terminal Server

Start a remote connection to the server via a

GPRS or Wireless LAN connection.

1. Tap the

Start menu > Programs > Terminal Services Client.

2. To connect to a server you have previously connected to, in

Recent Servers, tap a server.

To connect to a new server, enter the server’s name in the

Server box. Select the Limit

size of server desktop to fit on this screen check box only when using applications that

have been specifically sized for use with the Pocket PC Phone.

3. Tap

Connect.

NOTE: If the network administrator has configured

Terminal Services Client to reconnect

to disconnected sessions, and you previously disconnected from a

Terminal Server without

ending the session, the

Terminal Services Client reconnects to that session.

Navigating within Terminal Services Client

Once connected to the server, the PC’s screen may more than fill your mobile device’s screen.

If scroll bars are displayed on the server’s screen, you will see more than one set of scroll

bars on your Pocket PC Phone: one to scroll information on the PC, and one to scroll the

PC display through the

Terminal Services window in Terminal Services Client.

To ensure you are scrolling the PC display through

Terminal Services Client, use the five

directional buttons at the bottom of the

Terminal Services Client screen. To better fit infor-

mation on your mobile device’s screen, select

Limit size of server desktop to fit on this

screen. For best effect, programs on the desktop computer should be maximized.

Disconnecting without ending a session

The following commands must be accessed from the

Start menu in the Terminal Services

window used to access the PC’s commands. Do not use the

Start menu on your Pocket

PC Phone.

1. In the

Terminal Services window, tap Start > Shutdown.

2. Tap

Disconnect.

If your administrator has configured

Terminal Services Client to reconnect to disconnected

sessions, you will be reconnected to this session the next time you connect to this server.
