Abstract
The present invention is directed to appropriately rendering terminal server graphical data at multiple client side monitors. In some embodiments, a client sends client side monitor configuration for a plurality of monitors to a server. The server simulates a virtual desktop for the plurality of monitors based on the client side monitor configuration. Graphical data generated for the simulated virtual desktop is converted to drawing commands and returned to the client for rendering. In other embodiments, a separate terminal server session is established for each of a plurality client side monitors. Drawing commands for a specified client side monitor is sent from the terminal server to the client over the corresponding session for the client side monitor.
