→Remote Desktop Group Policy
A vast array of configuration options for Terminal Services are available through the Group Policy settings. To access these values start the Group Policy Object Editor (open the Start menu and enter ''gpedit.msc'' into the Search box). In the Group Object Policy Editor navigate to Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Terminal Services or User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Terminal Services to access the range of policy settings available.
Policy options include, amongst other options, items such as control over resource redirection (printers, audio etc), setting session time limits and security settings. A complete overview of all the settings is beyond the scope of this book but almost without exception the various settings are largely self-explanatory.
