This work provides expert insight into building a Windows 2000 thin client environment.
Windows NT, Terminal Server Edition (TSE) is an extension to NT Server that allows applications to run one centralized location while being presented on multiple client devices. Designed to decrease total cost of ownership, when used in conjunction with Citrix's MetaFrame product. TSE has also resulted in dramatic (500% or more) performance increase in standard NT administration tools and some database applications. A new edition is necessary to document this new functionality, and also the challenges that system architects will have to address as they design their W2K networks and then transition from Windows NT to W2K. Windows 2000 Thin Client Solutions follows the organization of the previous edition, but includes changes to discussions affected by W2K's release, including coverage of scalability and security. Additional chapters on installation of terminal services and MetaFrame on a W2K server, as well as chapters on TSE management, remote access, and application integration.

Todd W. Mathers is a thin-client technology consultant and software developer who specializes in the planning and deployment of Microsoft Terminal Server and Citrix MetaFrame. An architect of Citrix implementations since 1996, Todd continues to be involved in enterprise-scale projects for major corporations throughout North America. He is also the founder of the Noisy River Software Corporation, which implements thin client solutions and develops software specifically for Terminal Server and MetaFrame. Todd holds an Honours Bachelor of Mathematics degree in computer science from the University of Waterloo. Todd is also the author of the best-selling book, Windows NT Thin Client Solutions: Implementing Terminal Server and Citrix MetaFrame (MTP, 1998).
