How To Configure A Windows Server 2003 Terminal Server To Use TLS For Server Authentication

While roaming the MS KB I found this interesting article.

You can connect to a remote computer that is running Microsoft Windows Terminal Services by using a Remote Desktop Protocol connection. This kind of connection provides encryption for the data that is sent between the terminal server and the client computer. However, this kind of connection does not provide authentication for the terminal server. You may want to make sure that your terminal server is correctly authenticated before you connect to it. To do this, configure your terminal server to use Transport Layer Security (TLS) to authenticate the terminal server and to encrypt the data that is sent between the terminal server and the client computer.
