Running Terminal Server through the NSW DET Portal on Vista
Please note: It is really not a good idea to run Internet explorer as an
administrator as per the instructions below.
Only use the IE session for the Portal and not general
web surfing as you are bypassing ALOT of the security measures in
place helping to protect you from malware/viruses etc. Use these
instructions at your own risk.
Seriously dont do it.
1. Right Click on the Internet Explorer icon and click on the “Run as administrator”

2.
Click on “allow” (not pictured)
3. Login to your portal normally.
4. Click “I accept”

5. Click “My Applications” then on the terminal server link on the portal.
6. On the window that pops up. Single left click on the bar at the top and select “Install ActiveX Control”

8. Once again single left click on the bar at the top of the screen and select “Run ActiveX Control”

If it still doesn’t work then you will need to close down the window and click on the terminal server
link again.
