Windows 2008 Published Application issue caused by UAC?
by Guest slj333- 1 reply
- 272 views
We recently upgraded to our GL application (Microsoft Navision), and the application is being run from a Windows 2008 terminal server environment. When my users try to update an existing excel worksheet from the published application, the process runs, and then just stalls without completing (no error message). However, if I allow them to log in to the Remote Desktop of the Windows 2008 Terminal server, and run Nav within that environment, the process completes. My first inclincation is to disable UAC, but I like the idea of keeping that feature if possible. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Steve

I have office 2000 that includes Access installed on a terminal server. I wanted to upgrade to 2003 or at least install just Access 2003 on it but I heard that there is a problem of comparability or that there is a specific 2003 application for terminal server. Any thoughts on that? Thanks

Need additional access to server 2003 desktop
by Guest dave64- 1 reply
- 284 views
Hi, I hope this isn't too redundant. I have a situation where a customer has a client/server app running on desktop and Server 2003. Performance is OK on desktops, poor on most notebooks and really sucks over vpn links and even a dedicated T1. THe temporary fix has been to let 2 remote users RDP in to the server. This works great. The problem is that we have used the 'Remote Administration' (default) mode. Thus we are limited to two sessions. Is there a way of getting more sessions WITHOUT doing anything drastic. There is no issue with purchasing licenses if that's all it takes. Changing TS to Application more may not be an option because a software…

Application Installation and Update
by Guest Dennis B- 1 reply

I have built my first T.S. and did the initial install of the applications. I did not see in any of the documentation I could find what happens to service packs. I set the server to install mode and then did the installation of the applications and then set the server back to execute mode. I want to install service packs now, some of which will do reboots, so do I go back into install mode for just the service pack or should I have done all the service packs while I was originally in install mode? What if they reboot to finish up the service pack install, will the server stay in Install mode during a reboot? How do I deal with future service packs: uni…

Lockdown Terminal Services Server 2008 in 2003 domain.
by Guest Kent- 2 replies
- 293 views
We already have our users/workstations locked down well. No CMD prompt, no registry editing, no windows explorer, local drives hidden etc... It works really well. We can't get this to translate into our 2008 ts sessions. Everything is open. Any ideas? I thought loopback was the answer but can't seem to get that working. Is there a 2008 template that needs to be loaded into the 2003 DC? Thanks in advance. Kent

TS Web Access and Local Drives
by Guest Dennis B- 1 reply

I just set up TS Gateway and TS Web Access in Win2008. When I use RDC to access a PC and enable showing local disk drives, I can see both local and remote drives. When I log in to TS Web Access and click the Remote Desktop in the Bar (not the icon in the remote apps box), the disk and plug and play device icons under the options settings (where you specify the computer you want to connect to) are grayed out. When I connect to the same PC using the same login using Web Access as I do with RDC my client local drives are not mapped. All the group policies I can find that relate to it are set to Not Configured for showing local drives. How can I get the disk d…

Windows 2008 TS locking problem
by Guest Erik Kristoffersen- 2 replies

At the local school I have got the following problem with a brand new installation af Windows 2008 TS: Suddenly every session is halted when accessing the file server. When the problem arises, client sessions may be able to continue working, however when they access the file server, they will be halted. Problem can be cured by restarting the file server (which by the way is fully functional). Setup: HP ML350 G5p, 4 GB RAM, 2 x 146 GB HD is running Windows 2008 x64 (terminal server) HP DL320 G5, 4 GB RAM, 4 x 250 GB HD is running Windows 2008 x64 (domain controller, file server, TS license server etc.) Home folders stored on the file server, redir…

Add regkey to TS users HKCU
by Guest Al Williams- 15 replies

Windows Server 2003 SP2 TS. I need to add a simple registry key to all my TS users HKCU hive. I googled and found an old post from Vera and tried adding "regedit newreg.reg" command to my login scripts but the users get a permission error - "Cannot import newreg.reg: Error accessing the registry." . It seems they aren't allowed to add new keys to their HKCU hive (it doesn't work manually either unless they are admins). Short of giving them all admin permissions until it's done is there another way? I know this must be simple but I can't find a solution that works. I'd rather not get into GPO's or VBscript if I can help it... Thanks -- Alla…

How can I script (in VBScript, C#.NET, or PowerShell) the following. I'm looking for the total sessions created (since the last reboot). Thus far, I have only been able to get this number by running QWINSTA /COUNTER and checking the "Total Sessions Created" value. NOTE: this number is not equal to the total number of active and inactive sessions

Setting up first TS Server - Have I Done it right?
by Guest Chavvy- 7 replies

Guys, I have set up my first 2003 Terminal Server for a friend using TS user cals. This is a single server/domain and I had a few issues with remote sessions being able to connect. This turned out to be default security settings for the DC which I have now resolved. When I purchased the CALS I was told that these had to be installed against named AD users. After setting up the licence service and installing the cals throught internet/Microsoft, I can see no way of doing this. The licence server shows the 5 cals installed though and the installation was pretty smooth. What is worrying me is that the licences in use count does not go down as connections …

Remote Access to Windows 2008 ?
by Guest Patrick- 5 replies

We just install our first Windows 2008 Server. We find that when we use RDP to access it, it works as remote access (we haven't used /admin option). From the web, we learn that Windows 2008 supports 2 active session if TS is not installed. If it is true, we wonder why RDP session is a Console Session. Your advice is sought.

After doing some Windows updates (Auguest 08 updates), I have an issue with users no longer having their printer available in the TS.

All was working fine before the latest updates were installed. Terminal Server 2003 R2 SP2, with Office…

Please help. It is a user profile error.
by Guest supermaxman- 1 reply

It embarrasses it very much because it doesn't understand. Please help someone. It is an application error of the event viewer of "Windows server 2003". The environment is used as DB server of Oracle. The error of "Userenv" fires it in rapid succession. A big problem wants to make it not generated though it might not be. However, it was suddenly generated though the environment had not been changed. Is it a foundation solution that use UPHClean for TECHNET of Microsoft though is? I want to examine grounds of the cause of the error. I want to know because of which application to have liberated the registry. The error doesn't occur why while it logs i…
