Clients are not able to open DOS app in full screen.
Error is = 16 bit DOS subsystem unable to open full screen
close or ignore. I have tried configuring the settings in
RDC with no success.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the fast respounse, but I don't want to
simulate DOS fill screen. I want to keep users away from
the desktop. Surely there is a way to do this.

If you have that application specified to start
automatically when the person connects, then they won't
ever get a chance to interact with the desktop.

You have to modify the application to run in Windowed Mode otherwise you'll always get this error when running it in a Terminal Services Session

I haven't had any luck running a DOS application (started with a batch file) as the Session Shell. Maybe it's because my app resides on a network drive that isn't available during logon. I have no need for doing this, but was curious if it was possible

I've done that. It still comes up windowed, the only
difference is when the app is closed the session is
terminated. I'm trying to keep the users from being able
to do anything but use the app.
