256 Color Depth for 2000 using RDP Protocol (32 bit w/ Citrix ICA)
24 Bit Color Depth with Server 2003 using RDP Protocol (32 bit w/ Citrix ICA)

Resolution = Dimension of display measured in pixels Width x Height
Color Depth = number of colors the screen can display, measured in number
of colors or bits.

If you wanted to know the max resolution for RDP, it's 1600x1200.

Hard to install, no. Expensive to install, yes. Citrix Presentation Server
runs approximately $250-$350 per concurrent user.

Thanks for the quick answer.

So with 2000 server, i can't have more than 256 colors except with expensive
citrix...
Ok, i will try to change programs colours for increase lisibility in RDP for
my users...

thanks !

That's your best bet, as you only options to acheive 16bit or higher color
depth are Citrix Presentation Server on 2000 or upgrading to Server 2003.
