Remote Desktop Client v6.1 Now Available for XP SP2

Looks like Microsoft listened. The RDC v6.1 is required for clients to work with TS Web Access. Originally, Microsoft only made this update available through the XP SP3 upgrade. But enough people balked that they announced a standalone download back on June 25th.

From the Terminal Services Team Blog:

Hello everyone,

we heard a lot of feedback from you about the need for the Remote Desktop Connection client 6.1 to be made available as a standalone install for Windows XP SP2 to ease deployments of Windows 2008 Terminal Services.

In response to this feedback, we have released the Remote Desktop Connection client (RDC 6.1) for Windows XP SP2 on x86 platforms.

Right on, guys! Thanks for listening and making it happen!

Get your copy of the RDC v6.1 here.
