Does this also prevent users from launching applications which are not assigned to them when logging into the full remote desktop?

It doesnt prevent users from launching applications that are not asigned to them. This feature helps only filtering out the published applications that are not assigned to a user in the RD WebAccess.

Does the tsweb 2008 R2 can enumerate remote app from a non-R2 2008 broker or farm ?

Remote Desktop Services (formerly Terminal Services) Allows Assignment of RemoteApps to Users in Web Access

One of the biggest complaints about the first version of TS Web Access was its inability to assign applications to users based on permissions. With TS Web Access in Windows Server 2008 RTM, any RemoteApp you create is automatically available to all users.

Hi MaxB,

WebAccess cannot pull in data from non-R2 broker server as the centralized publishing service is not available on win2k8 server. The centralized publishing servvice is available only with win2k8-R2 connection broker. However, DNS farm name can be used to enumerate remote apps.

Thanks

Yeah, this feature sounds like a great start on the path to adding functionality to TSGW...

Where do i get it / when will it be available?

Thanks

Hi, Marcus,

This is a feature of Remote Desktop Services in WS08 R2, so it will be available when WS08 R2 ships. See link below for announced availability dates.

Yes, but you do not get user filtering in this case. All apps will be seen by all users when enumerating remote apps from earlier TS servers/farms.

Will this feature become available via update/hotfix for current W2k8 Server NON-R2 installs?
