About the Terminal Services Client MSI Setup Package

The Terminal Services Client MSI Setup package is a tool for deploying Remote Desktop Connection (formerly known as the Terminal Services client) and associated files on computers running earlier versions of Windows. These versions include Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Microsoft Windows 98, and Microsoft Windows 95. The MSI Setup package can also be placed on a share for distribution to workstations running Windows 2000 by using Microsoft IntelliMirror.
