A Terminal Server is a server which deploys applications to other
"stupid" clients. This means that you install all the stuff you need
onto ONE HUGE server and then connect to it with "terminals", which
don't have any floppy drives, CD-ROMs, etc. They just have a CPU and a
bit of ROM/RAM by means of which they interact with the Server. They
just "display" a session for every user on its terminal, but in effect
the processing is being done on the server.
Hope it is enough...
It is not possible to differentiate between the IP-addresses: your users are
actually working AS IF ON THE TERMINALSERVER, so you won't see the actual
IP-addresses.
Compare this to users working on a UNIX-host: if they do any requests to the
proxy, the IP-address of the UNIX-host will show, not the IP-address of the
client where the telnet/ssh-session from originates.
