RE: windows version for terminal services
Win 2003 or above - more important is that you get a version of QB qualified to work on Terminal Server. Not all of them do. You'll need a server license, a windows server CAL and a Terminal Server CAL for each user. Regards, Michael B.

RE: windows version for terminal services
I don't use Enterprise version of QB and it works on my TS server. Quickbooks Pro 2008 3 user. There are some annoying quirks with messages and pop-ups though.

Jasper: I'll be more than happy to assist you on that. Jasper: The version that you would need is the QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions Edition. Jasper: This is the only QuickBooks that is compatible with a terminal server.

RE: windows version for terminal services
I'd have to check the spec, but I don't think that the W2K3 web edition will function as a general purpose terminal server (hence the low cost, it does *almost* nothing besides IIS ) _ From: Adam Greene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 4:27 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: windows version for terminal services I have a client who wants us to host Quickbooks in our datacenter for them, which they would access via Terminal Services.

There are some annoying quirks with messages and pop-ups though. There is a difference between what works and what is supported. For customers, I would rather go with supported. Just my own personal preference.
