Publishing RemoteApp To SharePoint Services 3.0 SP1
Oh my...it's been a long time since I posted anything here. Work has kept me pretty busy and my blog activity is indicative of that.
I've been revamping my home network - the centerpiece is an Intel quad core server with 10GB of RAM running Hyper-V. It's nice to get back to some hands on and figure out how some of this amazing technology can work for me in my own home/test environment.
I've got a Server 2008 VM running Terminal Services RemoteApp. I'm doing a bunch of virtualization road shows and am putting together a end-to-end demo system and ran across a great whitepaper on how to set this up.
Customizing TS Web Access by Using Windows SharePoint Services
You can grab all of the Windows 2008 Step-By-Step Guides HERE.
Anyway, very easy to do...
Couple things to take note of:
- Server HAS to be 2008. Installing on a 2003 will not work
- You'll need to install the TS Web Access feature on the 2008 server. It doesn't have to be a full blown Terminal Server - but just needs those components on the server running WSS.
- On your Terminal Server (if it's not the same server as where you are installing SharePoint...and probably not unless you are in a demo environment) you'll need to add the machine account for the SharePoint server to the "TS Web Access Computers" security group.
