You must log onto your server locally with an administrator's account. Check and make sure you have the proper permissions. Also check your HDD space. What specific error messages are you getting, if any?

by reference

If you have Terminal Services installed in Application Server Mode, you HAVE to install new programs through Add/Remove Programs. In there you will find a button "add new program"
To determine wich mode Terminal Server is running in, on the serverclick
start->programs->amdin tools->terminal services configuration. click 'server settings' and look in the right pane area for Terminal Server Mode. (remote admin, or application)
P.S. Terminal Services is installed automatically with Win2000 Server in Remote Administrator Mode.

If you are installing software with Terminal services installed. If you cannot install it with Add/Remove programs, from the run prompt type change user /install and after the installation type the command change user /execute. Hope this helps.
