Server 2003 R2

In server 2003 R2, what would Terminal Services be?  It says that you can give people on non-x86-based platform remote control it, but what does that really mean?  How would you do that? Just open a web browser ype in "TERMINAL SVC" and itll work?? (I know that would never work, just showing how  I have absolutely no Idea).

Thanks.

Terminal Services is a service that runs on the machine and allows remote connections.

you need a terminal client to access it such as Remote Desktop on windows machines but anything that uses the Remote Desktop Protocol can access it.

Goto Control Panel ->Administrative Tools->Services and check that Terminal Services is started.  If its not there then

Goto Control Panel ->Add/Remove Programs and click the windows component setup tab, you can install Terminal Services from here

Thanks...
