TS Licensing Issues
by Guest Rosewood- 6 replies
- 1.1k views
I'm very green to TS and this is my first TS deployment. I thought everything was good to go. I added our 10 licenses as per user CALs since we have 6 users that may jump between 12 different computers. The CALs are installed and I thought everything was good to go since everyone was connecting w/o a problem. Today I was told they are getting a message when they login that their license expires in 4 days. So I went to the Terminal Service Licensing window. Sure enough it shows a bunch of Temporary Licenses issued and 10 User CALs available. So how do I get these user CALs tied to a specific user and get them off the temp licenses?

help: ts gateway keeps rejecting user credential
by Guest shimh- 9 replies
- 1.1k views
I am setting up a terminal service gateway in Windows 2008 domain in our lab. I followed the step-by-step tutorial. I had this problem: the ts gateway keeps rejecting user credential (The logon attempt failed). I enter the credential in this format: domain_name\username, and password. Occasionally the ts gateway works, usually after the server is restart . With unknown reason, it does not work sometime later. Any idea on the cause and diagnostic steps? Thanks a lot.

Windows 2K3 NLB Problem
by Guest Luiz- 2 replies

Hi, I would like a help, please: - I have configured 2 server with TS and they are in NLB. I have published the 2 TS through my ISA 2004 to external access. In my LAN the NLB works very well but when an external user access the node he/she is direct to onlye one TS. It seems that ISA 2004 is filtering something. Anyone knows if that is a ISA problem? Thanks. Luiz

Terminal Services Basics
by Guest Anwar Mahmood- 6 replies

Hi All, Hope someone can help with a basic question. It's probably been covered many times, but I can't find anything substantial or definitive... Looking at Terminal Services on Windows Server 2003/Citrix Presentation Server 4.5 for the first time. I'm uncertain of the correct sequence of actions to build a farm. There will be multiple servers, but only running Office and one or two other (low intensity) applications. The most logical sequence to *me* is - establish "infrastructure" (licensing, data store, etc) - install Windows Server 2003 SP2 - install and customise the applications - test the applications (eg with a standard user account…

high cpu utilization of IE for one TS user
by Guest om- 2 replies
- 696 views
Hi, One of the terminal users is experiencing slowness with his IE. I ran Process Explorer on the terminal server and noticed that his IE instance did take more CPU resource than other TS users. I checked and they all seem to have the same IE settings. I deleted all IE temp. files as well as reduced the disk space size for the particular user but it didn't help either. Can you some suggest how i can identify the problem? Thanks

Slow Performance issue

I'm running Terminal Sevices on a Windows 2003 Standard server. Fairly powerful box (1xQuad-Core Proc; 4GB RAM; plenty of fast HD storage space available) Users are seeing poor performance at times, even when only one or two users are connected to the box. Some of the performance issues reported include: - Slow opening of data files (.PDF, .DOC, etc.) - Once opened, slow and/or choppy scrolling from page to page in documents - Choppy and broken up video streaming In order to fix the video streaming problem I've upgraded the server's built-in video card to a card that has 256MB of RAM onboard. It made a very small improvement, but not enough to make the…

We have a program that uses the FlexLM key locks to prevent more than one person running the program. Even when you try to fire up a second instance of the program you are denied a license. Since only one instance on the computer can run at a time we have had this installed on the Terminal Server and not violated the license agreement because even when 10 people are using the TS for whatever, only one can use the program using the FlexLM key lock. I baggered out of a developer that they put in the restriction on the program (no details on how) but Sales and Management of the software company deny it is there because they know we and other customers will…

Good morning! Okay, Okay......I know that several of you in here will kill me for this! Vera, Patrick, Jeff,.....sorry...but I did not do this!!!! I am simply trying to fix some things and want to make sure that I do not break things in the process.... Anyway, a client has a small Terminal Server farm (two servers). A Terminal Server Profile was not implemented. Yikes! I know! Anyway, most are using a Thin Client but some still use a PC / Laptop to access the Terminal Server. Some of the of these good people are Sales Folks who are almost never in the office and log on to their laptops locally (read: the "log on to:" part is populated with "myma…

Single server scenario workable?
by Guest anthonyx26- 6 replies
- 775 views
I have some clients who, for budgetary reasons, only have a single server (WS2008) in their office but would still like to have the benefits and security of using TS for their employees. Is it possible to configure a single server as a locked down TS (using GPOs) for use by multiple remote users? It's currently not configured as a domain controller, but I suppose could be. I realize a single server is not ideal...in fact I always recommend and have always configured scenarios with at least a separate TS and DC and file server. - anthonyx26
