We recently had our Windows 2000 Server (SP2) running
IIS5.0 security tested, and the security testers suggested
that we should remove the necessary dlls to do with this,
if we are not using RDS.

Could someone please anwer the following questions:

1) What is RDS?
2) Why is it installed on IIS as default?
3) How do I know whether I am/am not using RDS?
4) Where are the dlls located?
5) How do I effectively remove the dlls?

Thanking you in advance,

Sachin.
