I am wanting to know if TS supports muliple monitors. Can any one let me know before I spend the money for the software. Thank You.

Do you mean one TS window spread out over two monitors? Or do you mean being able to have a TS window on one monitor and another in the other monitor, or being able to move TS windows between the monitors?

Jeff yes you can...and to every question Psycho asked, yes you can all all those as well. I have TS 2003 running on several workstations running dual monitors. You can span the TS window across both, just like the local system. I only had one problem with one of my dual monitor systems and it was an incompatible display driver. Replaced the video card and that was the end of it.

Pete,

Can you provide instructions (a url or KB article) on how to set this up. Been searching but can't find anything.

Thanks.

Nothing to really setup. Just make sure your dual screens are working on the local system first. Once they are, connect to term server and see if the screen work there as well. if not, disconnect from term server and update the video driver on your graphics card, make sure the screens work well again in the local system, then connect to term server. If it works well there, then great; if not, log off ts, try a different driver, etc, etc. you get the point.

Pete, I now have a Matrox G450 Dual Head Monitor. On local it works great. But I just can't get the TS to span both screens.
Does the resolution on both screens need to be the same?
Would hardware make a difference, what is your setup?
