Terminal Server 2003

Will MS Antispyware work on Terminal Server 2003?

 

[Andre Da Costa [Extended64]]

Yes it can, but there might be some trade off, read this from Doug Gill and
the response from Mikolaj:
I am running the beta code on a terminal server (Windows
Server 2003). I have been seeing unexpected restarts to
the server almost daily since installing the beta code.
These usually happen in the middle of the night, but the
times are somewhat random. The error code in the system
log is 6008. Is anyone else experiencing these? Can these
restarts be eliminated or minimized? This error was
occuring prior to the beta test, but has become much more
frequent since the test started.

Response from Mikolaj:
Event 6008 just informs, that previous shutdown was unexpected due to some
reasons. This is just a statement, not the info about the source of the
problems. Search the system log for any other indication of errors (those
with red "label") to find the source of the problem.

If you are thinking of doing this, I'd recommend pulling in these groups via
NNTP, and doing a search.

Microsoft does not recommend running this beta product on production
equipment.

There are a number of reports from server admins of this product consuming
large amounts of resources.

This beta runs as a user mode process--not as a service--so it will be
running and scanning, etc, in every one of your logged in users at the same
time.

I'm not sure what the 6008 issue is with the messages that Andre referred
to--I haven't seen unexpected restarts on any machine of any kind with
Microsoft Antispyware, but I have also not run it on Server 2003 or Terminal
Server 2003.
