I took a second look at my TechNet subscription and notice a product key and a line that said “Terminal Service enablement for Office 2010 (Technet Professional)”, so I gave that key a try, Yay, it worked. During the install however, when I tried the product ID, it told me that this Office product could not be run from a Terminal Services setup. Now what ? I decided to install Office 2010 Pro on the server, since I have a Technet subscription. Once I setup the monitor correctly, I was able to run each workstation from the Multipoint server independently, cool. Then my 2nd terminal has a USB wired device that controls a wireless keyboard & mouse. This becomes important if you plan on connecting 10 workstations that WMS can support. I assuming that this setup makes the keyboard show up as a hub, as apposed to connecting the wireless mouse dongle to the PC directly, whereby also reducing the amount of USB ports. All was going well, I connected 1 keyboard that has 2 USB slots, so 1 for the wireless mouse dongle. Looks like you need to have a USB hub for each keyboard and mouse for each workstation and a video connection on your server for each monitor. So I downloaded the 2010 version and installed that on a 1TB drive on my Shuttle SG33G5M with a 880GT. I noticed on slide 24, there is a reference to a product called Windows MulitPoint Server. Sean Daniel released a slide deck for SMBNation Presentations on Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials and 2011 Standard. I’ve been having a look at Windows Multipoint Server 2010 this week.
