Well that’s weird, I’ve never seen it that you’re required to pres ctrl+alt+del to login in a Terminal server session.

Anyways to send ctrl+alt+del to the ts screen press ctr+alt+end.

Many machines (Win2k, W2k3, and even Win XP) can be configured that in order to login you must hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to get to the login prompt. Local Security settings/Security Options/Interactive Login (for Win XP)

This is a security feature (ahem)
