Set up a Remote Desktop Connection

By establishing a Remote Desktop Connection (RDC), you can verify that the operating

system on the remote computer is up and running.

NOTE The remote administration mode is enabled by default on Windows Server 2003 if you

are using the OS supplied as part of the HP Re-install media. If you are installing or

re-installing using Microsoft RTM media, the Remote Desktop functionality is not

enabled. You must enable this from the My Computer properties tab. Users must have

unique user names. Windows does not permit two users with the same name to log on

simultaneously.

To set up an RDC:

Step 1. Click Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications > Remote Desktop

Connection.

Step 2. Click the Computer dropdown list.

Step 3. Select Browse for more.

Step 4. Select the HP Integrity server with which you want to establish a connection.

Step 5. Click OK.

Step 6. Click Connect.

Step 7. Log on to the remote server.

Windows displays the desktop of the server.
