Terminal Services Command Line Administration

Managing your Windows 2003 Terminal Server can be done faster and easier with a few simple command line tools. There are a lot of them so hang on!

Change User - When installing applications on a terminal server you must be in Install Mode. To toggle the system between Install and Execute Modes, you can use the Change User commands.

To switch to Install Mode: CHANGE USER /install

To switch to Execute Mode: CHANGE USER /execute

Change Logon - To quickly disable or enable the ability to logon to the terminal server you can use the Change Logon command. This will not affect currently logged on users.

To enable new logons: CHANGE LOGON /enable

To disable new logons: CHANGE LOGON /disable
