RDS/Terminal Services on Foundation Server
Hi All
Is it possible to add a Foundation server to and existing 2008 domain > 15 users to use it as a terminal server for about 2-3 users?

Hi,
Yes this could be a great solution.
"Windows Server Foundation is also ideal for multiple-user computing, such as sharing Microsoft Office or using Remote Desktop Services."
"Although Windows Server 2008 R2 Foundation does not require Windows Server CALs, TS CALs or Rights Management CALs are required to use those server roles on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Foundation–based server. The user/device limit for RMS and RDS CALs
is 15. "
There are some limitations like it must be connected to a root domain, cannot be a child domain and some more, more information about foundation server can be read here:
