If you apply a hotfix that is not compatible with Terminal Server, to a Terminal Server computer, your server will not
function properly.
To determine if a hotfix is compatible with Terminal Server:
1. If it is a self extracting exe, expand it with the /x switch.
2. Use FILEVER.EXE, from the Resource Kit, to display the FileVer property of the VS_FIXEDFILEINFO structure. Type filever /v filename. Sample:
filever /v apimon.exe --a-- W32i APP ENU 4.0.1381.32772 shp 184,080 06-16-1998 apimon.exe Language 0x0409 (English (United States)) CharSet 0x04b0 Unicode OleSelfRegister Disabled CompanyName Microsoft Corporation FileDescription API Monitor Debugger InternalName apimon.exe OriginalFilenam apimon.exe ProductName Microsoft(R) Windows NT(TM) Operating System ProductVersion 4.00 FileVersion 4.00 LegalCopyright Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp. 1981-1998 VS_FIXEDFILEINFO: Signature: feef04bd Struc Ver: 00010000 FileVer: 00040000:05658004 (4.0:1381.32772) ProdVer: 00040000:05658004 (4.0:1381.32772) FlagMask: 0000003f Flags: 00000000 OS: 00040004 NT Win32 FileType: 00000001 App SubType: 00000000 FileDate: 00000000:000000003. If the FileVer shows a hex version where the last 2 bytes are 8000 or greater, the file was built for Terminal Server. The decimal version will exceed 32767. In the example above, the last 2 bytes are 8004, while the decimal version is 32772.
