Notes

To open Active Directory Users and Computers, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Active Directory Users and Computers. This procedure works only if the server has been promoted to a domain controller.
To open Computer Management, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Computer Management.
This procedure is for Citrix ICA clients only. For clients that use the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), client drive redirection is supported if the server is running one of the Windows Server 2003 family operating systems and the client is running Remote Desktop Connection.
In Windows Explorer, client drives appear in the session folder tree in the form \\TSClient\<driveletter>$ if drive redirection has been specified as a Remote Desktop Connection option on the client.

Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
