Terminal Server = Windows 2000 Terminal Server
Someone's just borrowed the laptop I was using, I can't remember the 
exact name of the program I was using for remote access but I think it's 
  "Remote Desktop" under KDE's Networking -> Remote Access menu.

I initially thought the problem was with encryption levels on the 
Terminal Server, RTFM'd and google'd and the suggestions were to lower 
the encryption leven and it's all good...but the encryption level is 
already set to "low", so that wasn't it.

Did that give you the info you're asking about or did I miss the boat ?
