In order to add the TS Web Access role service click on the ''Add Role Services'' link and select ''TS Web Access'' from the list of Role Services. TYS TS Web Access requires a number of other roles, primarily in terms of the IIS web server role. As such, a second dialog will appear listing any additional services which need to be installed along side alongside the TS Web Access service. Click on the ''Add Role Services'' to ensure that these services are also installed. Click the ''Next'' button to review information about the services being installed. Click next to review the IIS services being installed (unless IIS is already installed on the system). Click ''Next'' once again to move to the confirmation screen and click on ''Install'' to initiate the installation. During the installation process it will be necessary to restart the system and log in as the same user to complete installation of the TS Web Access role service and any dependencies.
== Accessing the TS Web Access Page ==
Before accessing the TS Web Access web page it is important to note that the service make makes use of JScript (Microsoft's implementation of JavaScript). Internet Explorer versions 7 and later disable JScript support by default, so it will be necessary to enable this support to add the TS Web Access page as a trusted site. To enable JScript support, launch IE, open the ''Tools'' menu and select ''Internet Options''. In the ''Internet Options'' dialog select the ''Security'' tab and click on ''Custom Settings''. In custom settings scroll down to ''Active Scripting'' and click in the ''Enable'' toggle. Apply the changes and restart IE.
Once JScript has been enabled the TS Web Access page can be reached using the following URL:
== Configuring RemoteApps for TS Web Access ==
To configure applications such that they can be launched from the Windows Server 2008 TS Web Access page they must first be installed for use with Terminal Services and then configured as ''RemoteApps''. Refer to the chapter entitled [[Installing Applications for Windows Server 2008 Terminal Services]] for details on how to install applications for use with terminal Services. Once this has been achieved, applications are configured as RemoteApps using the ''TS RemoteApp Manager'' which is accessed either from the ''Start -> All Programs -> Terminal Services -> TS Remote App Manager'' or by running '''remoteprograms.msc'' in a Run dialog or command prompt. Once launched, the manager will appear as follows:
