hi alex,

a) depends, example if bring visual effect minimum , not using redirected ports or devices, 56k may more or less enough. if using, printer redirection, 16 bit color, etc. may need more. have try , see works you.

b) yes can support 200 concurrent sessions, server should powerful enough handle such big load. , not number of sessions, everything: bandwidth, used applications, used settings, etc.

c) session not consume lot of memory, memory consumed applications used users. consider applications used, calculate how many resources apps using , plan accordingly.

d) limitation in rdp client using. server side there no limitations.

take @ this:
