Is this possible on Windows 2008 R2 Ent? My client workstations are
all equipped with two 18" monitors (via dual DVI) .

Monitor spanning works when I added the "span monitors:i:1" on the
"RDP file" How can I implement multimonitor (not extended monitor
where the login is in the middle of the spanned monitor) support
assuming I will be using the latest Winows 7 client or "RDP client
version 7 or later"?

My terminal server config is;

'TerminalServicesRole' is installed.
'TSTerminalServer' is installed.
'TerminalServicesLicenseServer' is installed.
'TerminalServicesSessionDirectory' is not installed.
'TerminalServicesGateway' is not installed.
'TerminalServicesWebAccess' is not installed.


Thanks,

Yes, real multi-monitor support is one of the new features of rdp
7.
Here's how to configure it:

Maybe you mis-interpret my post. Sorry. I am "not" looking to use my
Win7 as the host for RDP. It worls OK the first time. Multimonitor is
ON by default on Win7 Ultimate as RDP server.

I went to "RemoteAPP deployment Setting" WINDOWS, click "Common RDP
Setting" and went to "User experience" but cannot find anything to
activate the second monitor. I don't want SPANNING. All I ask is just
a multimonitor where you can maximized an application like Openoffice
or Mozilla to stay on the primary monitor (single) and not on both
(SPANNED) . I don't mind using "registry edit" as long I can fix it.

Why is this thing very COMPLICATED.

Windows2008 R2 ent? Is Multimonitor "NOT continuous resolution/
display" supported? How?

Should I go here "\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control
\Terminal Server\Winstations\RDP-Tcp"

Windows 7 Ulti supports it (Multimonitor) why I cannot do it on a more
expensive piece of software.

You can get by installing Windows 2008 R2. As Patrick Rouse determined,
you're running Win2008, not Win2008 R2. They're separate products.
