Terminal Services Setup
by Guest NC Beach Bum- 1 reply
- 306 views
I have been using Terminal Services for myself to do server administration for several years. I VPN on the firewall and then hit the servers for admin work. I have been tasked with creating a proposal for select employees to work from home which will require file share access, Outlook, and client server database application. The existing VPN to the desktop is great as long as it's a good Internet connection on the remote end. However, my concern is when folks are in a hotel on a shared connection and they simply don't have the bandwidth my phone will be ringing off the hook with whiners. Is a terminal services setup the best route on this? W…

Internet Explorer

Hi!! As Admin I can check/uncheck the Protected mode option from within IE no problem. As a Domain User, the option is greyed out. not Group Policy. Running an RSOP on the local machine shows Protected mode for all zones as Disabled, yet the box is still checked and greyed out rendering our new TS useless for the moment. Any ideas? Paul.

Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition

When remotely rebooting a server, Terminal Services reboots as disabled, rather than Automatic as it is set, forcing a physical logon and changing terminal services back to automatic. No error message accompanies this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Windows - Jobs, Interview Questions, Certification
by Guest Naveen- 0 replies
- 278 views
Hi, In the very fast moving IT Industry, there is a need for the people to keep a note of what is happening in the field, what are the latest Jobs available and in which technologies they are available and what companies and also in which cities. And also when applying for Jobs, it is obvious for people to look for Interview Questions in their Technologies and if they are able to find it all at one place, then they can concentrate on studying or doing R&D further on those questions and answers available. And for a better pay pack people are always in a mood of doing certification and at that time they are on a lookout for certification material an…

Very Slow Respond.
by Guest sihfmis- 2 replies
- 327 views
I am not sure where the origins of the problem begin, so I will strat with TS since that is where it seems to be. I am running a single 2003 TS server (standard edt), so to have a second server, in a 2003 Enterprise domain. When the remote clients log into the TS server, the response is very slow (sometimes 5 to 10 minutes). it causes latency issues with applications and drive mapping. Any suggestions where I should start looking? I am at a loss.

Client Discovery Process

Hello Community, does anyone have a detailed description (beside the one from BMadden) how the License Check is done for a Client? I have an issue with a Dual NAT connection and the Winlogon does never happen, so I assume it's stuck at the validation check of the TS cal. Thanks for the replies Carsten

TS connect to a License Server from DMZ
by Guest Dag- 4 replies
- 398 views
Hi, what needs to be done for the following scenario: A web server in DMZ needs to be setup to use a Terminal Licensing server so more than 3 people can connect at once. It is not apart of the domain and it is a firewall between the web server and the licensing server. I've tried to open up for port 135 and port 5000-5100 in the firewall. I've set up the rpc dynamic ports to be static on both machines( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/154596 ). And rebooted both of them. But it still can't find the licensing server. What have I missed?

windows 2008 Terminal Server suddenly had no drive space
by Guest slj333- 4 replies
- 345 views
I am wondering if anyone else has seen this or knows what may have caused this. On our W2k8 TS server (current on MS patching), we have ~30 users running a published application (MS Navision). Yesterday afternoon, a user got the message that the server was out of drive space. I logged into the console, and there was 0 disk space left. I had been in the server earlier in the day and there was 18GB of space left. I did a search for large files and found no unusual ones. I then calculated the folders (starting at c:) and found that there should still have been roughly 18GB of space left. I deleted a few unncessary files to see what would happen, and immed…

Need Windows CAL plus TS CAL?
by Guest mat- 1 reply
- 319 views
There was a good disucssion of this back in Jan, but I don't recall a certain outcome. Most of the thread participants seemed to think that a Windows CAL had to be purchased for each TS user/CAL. Others thought only the TS CAL was needed?

Terminal Server Performance
by Guest OS360_ITMAN- 1 reply
- 343 views
Good Day to all I have a terminal server running 180 connections currently, of these 150 are low end connections only using a web application and with them on the system is humming at a mere 10% CPU usage, but once I load my other 30 power users with Email, and office then the usage rises to 70% CPU Usage. Most of the CPU usage is used by Outlook as they have PST which are 2GB's and more. The worst response on the power user session is with Email very slow at times. I am considering installing Exchange as currently we use POP mailboxes from our ISP. Will this alleviate some CPU resources or will it be the same. In essence is Exchange mail bette…

My Administrator TS session has lost all icons, task bar cannot be shown (from hidden), mouse cursor is an hour glass. I can logon as Administrator via the console. There are no system error messages. Other TS users OK. I have not restarted server as waiting for users to go home.

I recently reinstalled Windows 2003 with Terminal Services because the old one started to behave badly. Everything went just fine, but I notice one oddity. The users who are using dual monitors also use the /span flag for obvious reasons, but this flag now causes the desktop icons to disappear/reappear with regular windows when Show Desktop button is pressed. To clarify, all icons disappear when this button is pressed or when "show the desktop" option is selected from the right click menu of the task bar. They also appear again when these options are selected again, just like regular windows do. This does not happen when the /span flag is not used. I fin…

Setting Up Clients
by Guest powlaz- 1 reply
- 295 views
I have started feeling my way through putting a Terminal Server in place for our company. In a previous post I was referred to a book Brian Madden made available on his website and I've read most everything in it. However there are a couple of questions I have left. 1. Is there a 'Best Practices' method for connecting a client to the Terminal Server? I went through the process of setting up a VPN connection using my SonicWall Pro2040 but I'm not sure if VPN and an RDC session are the generally accepted way of doing things. Aside from the extensive security configured on the VPN is there a need for additional security measures (regarding data bein…

NLB Mgr question
by Guest Neil Burk- 3 replies
- 508 views
I am using NLB on 5 hosts runing 2003 Terminal Server. The only way I can get a reliable connection to the VIP is to configure them in Unicast mode. According to MS documentation I should be able to use nlb mgr (gui) to manage the cluster, from a host outside of the cluster but it does not work. When I connect to VIP with nlb mgr, 3 of the hosts are "unreachable" according to nlb mgr. These hosts are available via ping, rdp, tracert, etc. I have enabled "Remote Connections" in nlb mgr, I have configured DCOM to allow the udp connection - still does not work. Any ideas.

Quick Launch - how to edit
by Guest Jesper DK- 4 replies
- 351 views
I have a Win 2003R2 terminal server, that I have locked down a little to much. Because of the Group Policy setting "Prevent access to drives on my computer", users are not able to edit the content of Quick Launch, so that it can contain Word and Excel. Now I dont want to remove the setting, because I dont want users to have access to the drives. But what can I do to "create" the right Quick Launch bar, with the icons that I want in. I should mention that they use roaming profiles. Best regards Jesper DK

Device Cals being "used up" when I RDP for administration support
by Guest thundergod255- 3 replies
- 333 views
We inherited a client that is running a terminal server with 16 Device CALS. The server has an application on it that is accessed by most users in the office. I am worried that we will encounter issues soon for the following two reasons: 1. While most users take their work laptop home with them, a few workers may try to VPN and RDP to the server from their home computer. Based on my understanding of the licensing, we will need to purchase additional CALS for them because it is a new device. 2. As IT Support for the office, we have 2 or 3 techs that may have to remote to the server from time to time for administration support. I noticed that the…
