To ClickOnce, the fact that you are running in a terminal service environment will be irrelevant. Every time a user logs onto a machine, whether it's different machines in a terminal server environment or differnet machines in an office, it will create a new deployment under his profile. So if you have terminal servers and 5 different people connect to the same terminal and run the application, you will have 5 deployments installed.

Even if you mark the application as online-only, it installs it (but only if the user can hit the online link).

And before you ask, there's no way to make a ClickOnce application run for all users. (common question)

If you don't care about multiple versions, or everyone uses the same login, then it will work just fine.
