In my opinion Terminal Server is a good option to install on your
Windows 2000 Server.  If you don’t plan on allowing your users
to access it in order to run programs it can also be used in
Remote Administration mode to do all you server
maintenance.  If you set up the Advanced Web Client from
Microsoft with your IIS Server then you can access your server from
any Internet Explorer 4 or Higher browser.
