copy files from terminal server to local

Hi all,

what is the best way to ensure you can copy files from the application server to the local C drive. I had selected the option to connect to local drive but it did not work properly.


Thanks

Are you using terminal server to remotely connect to your office? If you are using broadband or dialup and open terminal server to see another computer, I don't believe there is a way to copy files from there to your local C drive. While you are connected, your computer is basically a "dumb terminal." At least that is how my employer makes it. I guess the reason is you could transfer all the company secrets to your hard drive.

That's a good point. You may not be able to by default for that reason.

thanks for the reply.

If your network shares a drive that you access from your work PC you could try relaying them from there.

Around here when on terminal server you never actualy connect to the work PC only a server that makes the connection LOOKS like your work PC and give network and exchange access.

I circumvented it by mapping the drive and copying the file from there. The terminal server is an application server with access to the e-mail server and file server.
