This article was previously published under Q186505 SUMMARY
Windows 95 and Windows NT desktops normally include a clock on the Taskbar.
However, the Terminal Server Client (whether 16-bit or 32-bit) does not
show the clock by default. The clock is turned off because screen updates
occur every minute, resulting in network traffic.
If the clock is enabled on the Client, the Terminal Server computer will
push a total frame of 113 bytes to the client. The client will acknowledge
with a total frame of 60 bytes. Administrators wanting to enable the
Taskbar clock function should factor an additional bandwidth usage of 173
bytes (1384 bits) for each minute for each client.
