Procedure:

LevelBlue does not recommend production installation of these products on a Terminal Server, due to possible resource conflicts between terminal sessions and other server applications.

If you must install the named products with Microsoft Terminal Services, you must complete the installation in Terminal Services Install Mode. You can force install mode by running the installation through Add/Remove Programs:

1. Open the Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs -> Add New Programs -> CD or Floppy
2. Browse to the location of the installation package and open it.
3. Complete the installation as usual.
