Terminal Service

[Jelo]

Please help. I have X server, a member of Y domain in
Windows 2000 environment. i have a ZZ application
running in X server. Terminal Service is running in X
server. There are clients connecting to X server via
Terminal service & run the ZZ app. i want to restrict
the users to only access the ZZ app when they connect via
Term Serv & not able to mess around with other desktop or
any window components, like prevent them access to
internet or open windows explorer & nose around. How can
I restrict the users from doing so & only able to run ZZ
app? Thank you.

One way to do this is to configure ZZ as the starting application on
the Terminal Server. You can do this in TS Connection Configuration
or through a Group Policy.
Make sure that the application does have an option to spawn another
process, like an editor or the command prompt.
I would also make sure that you have proper NTFS permissions on the
local drives in the Terminal Server, and hide those drives with a
GPO.
