I am tring to connect a serial shipping scale to a
terminal server via the Remote desktop client. I have the
serial devices box checked but the server will not pick up
the scale. Is their a limit as to what devices can be
transfered? I have tried connecting to both a windows
2000 and 2k3 terminal server.

Thanks,

Glenn
 
Windows 2000 doesn't support mapping client serial
devices. Windows 2003 does, but make sure the mapping is
occurring at the server end by doing a net use and seeing
what comes up. If that doesn't produce anything, verify
that your rdp-tcp connection in the terminal services
configuration is setup to map client COM port devices.
