I am confused about the cert requirements for 2008 server RemoteAPP. Do I need to purchase a cert for my employees to connect remotely without extra prompts? Can I just create my own cert as purchasing one is costly? -- Thanks!

ms access runtime on TS 2003
by Guest merlin2049er- 1 reply
- 275 views
ok, I've got a few issues using the runtime version of MS Access 2000 on the TS 2003. 1) (appname) msaccess.exe crashes (modname) msjet40.dll, I've sent an error report to Microsoft, but it's not quite like vista (where it may give you a possible solution) 2) (appname) msaccess.exe crashes (modname) vbe6.dll. Not sure what's causing this to continually crash, but our users are not having any fun. Is there a better way to send these error reports to Microsoft and maybe get an answer? Thanks, JG

Issues with XP Remote Desktop Versions 5 vs 6 and NT4 Terminal Ser
by Guest mopalinski- 2 replies
- 304 views
On XP desktops that have not been upgraded to SP3, I am able to access my NT4 Terminal server using RD 5.1.2600.2180, however when I attempt to access the same NT4 Terminal server from a PC with SP3 and RD 6.0.6001.18000, I am not able to access the NT4 Terminal server and get the following error: "Because of a protocol error, this session will be disconnected. Please try connecting to the remote computer again." If I copy the Remote Desktop version 5.1.2600.2180 to the upgraded PC along with the associated DLL, I am able to once again connect to the NT4 server. Does there exist a fix to make the newer version of Remote Desktop connect to the NT4 ser…

I had a user that was connecting to TS 2008 using user mode licensing and now that user is no longer with the company. How do I free up his license for use by a new user? Also, how can I tell what users are taking licenses? The only report I can find shows how many licenses are in use and not who is using them. Thanks in advance, -Nathan

Connecting to a server by name
by Guest Jasper Recto- 2 replies
- 305 views
I have a Cisco ASA firewall that allows me to VPN into our company domain. When I'm in the domain, I can ping any computer or connect to it through terminal server by using the computer IP address. Is there anything I can do so that I can connect to computer by its computer name? If I try to ping a computer name, the DNS can not resolve it. Is there a host file I can edit that can reference the computer name and it's corresponding IP address? I'm on Windows XP. Thanks, Jasper

Running 2000Sp Pk 4 TS server is Server2003 Users only use TS for a billing and scheduling program, and they use their workstations actual desktop. These machines are using mapped drives (logon scripts) and folder redirect (group Policy). When they logon to the TS server, their profiles are mapping the drives and trying to use the folder redirect. I want them not to do this. Maybe a default profile for all? Any suggestions. Regards,

I am having an issue installing programs consoled in and logged in as admininstrator. It keeps giving the message of "The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation" I don't know of any policy set to prevent this from even happening for the administrator. I have went to the lengths of removing the group policy for the users and trying it again without any luck. Does anyone know how to reset everything on that server or any suggestions. Thanks, TM

issue running scripts (of any kind)
by Guest Cary Shultz- 0 replies
- 200 views
Good morning! We have a WIN2003 R2 member server running Terminal Services about ready to go into production but my testing has unfortunately provided a little surprise: I can not run any scripts on this box. Specifically, I have a .vbs script for all of the users (logon.vbs) and it will not run. I can log on as me to the other TS and logon.vbs works (I get all of the mapped network drivers). However, when I log on as me to this one I get nada! We also have management software on all of the machines that we manage and my "Managed Services" colleague can not run any of his scripts. So, something is preventing this from happening on this "new box".…

Information on Dynamic Port Used by Terminal Services
by Guest Will- 5 replies
- 372 views
According to Microsoft documentation, Terminal Server Licensing servers use RPC port 135 and a dynamic port over 1024. Regarding the dynamic port, can someone tell me: 1) Is there a registry option we can use to place the dynamic port on a specific fixed TCP port? If yes, what are the details of that? 2) Is anyone here technical enough with the terminal server licensing protocol that they can tell me the UUID of the requested service associated with the dynamic port? -- Will

I have users accessing the terminial servers in a 2003 AD domain from a trusted domain. None of the group policies from the domain of the TS has any affect on those trusted users. How do I get group policies to restrict the user's acess to the TS? I need to hide My Computer and the C: drive. I cannot rely on policies of the trusted domain to restrict the users. Dennis

After we close down a RemoteAPP, we see that the user session is disconnected on the server in Terminal Services Manager. These sessions are not logging off on their own. We have to right-click the session and select log-off. How do we get the log-off to happen automatically when the user closes the RemoteAPP? -- Thanks!

I'm wondering what you guys think of the following Silverlight Remote Access Web page instead of the default that Microsoft provides? http://narenda.mvps.org/coolts/ I really like this and would love to implement this if it ever makes non-beta. I can't tell if its waiting on Silverlight 2.0 or is just a demo application. Opinions?

Hello all -- I have a Windows 2008 Std installation with Terminal Services installed. The server is a member server of an Active Directory domain. I initially installed and used the Terminal Server on the 2008 machine during the trial period. I setup Remote Apps and had copied the .rdp files to my local workstation. Everything was working fine and life was good. I really enjoy the RemoteApp feature. I later activated Windows and soon thereafter ran VMware's CONVERT to P2V the machine to an ESX 3.5 host. No issues here. When I logged into the machine for the first time under ESX, it deteched that the hardware had changed and I needed to re-ac…

Newbie Question - Lock down client access
by Guest DanSim- 3 replies
- 314 views
I am looking into using thin clients for internet kiosk's and would like to know if there is a clear document that tells me how to lock down each users terminal service session to only one app (IE) with little or no permissions on the TS file system? Just to make sure my question is clear here is the scenerio. There will be multiple thin client computers (Wyse) that will automatically login to a windows 2008 terminal server. Upon login IE needs to run and open to a specific web page. No other access to the file system is needed. Other users will approach the thin client and be prompted to login with thier AD account. They will login and I would like …

Double login required. 2008 terminal server and XP SP2 or SP3clien
by Guest saveoncomputers@yahoo.com- 1 reply
- 278 views
When an XP SP2 or SP3 client logs into a 2008 terminal server with TSFarm, users are required to enter their login password twice. On the first login, Users are required to enter both User Name and Password. Once that is done, the next login screen only requests the password. Normally, the MSRDPCLNT passes auth to the server but for some reason, this server is not reciving or accepting the auth. Any ideas? Thanks Robert

I use terminial servers with network printers. All users can use any printer but they set their own default printer. The default printer is lost when they log off. On 2003 server, I created the logon and logoff script below: Logon Script: REG IMPORT \\server\DefaultPrinters\%clientname%.reg Logoff Script: DEL \\server\DefaultPrinters\%clientname%.reg /q reg export "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Currentversion\Windows" \\server\DefaultPrinters\%clientname%.reg This works great in 2003 but in 2008, the %clientname% variable is not created while the logon scripte is run. And, it dissappears before the logoff scrip is started. IN 2008 I pu…

We run terminal server licensing on the domain controller in one of our domains. There is a group Terminal Server Computers that up to now we have left unpopulated. The absence of entries in this group has not stopped terminal server licensing from working. What controls when this group is actively enforced, such that the absence of any entry in the group will stop terminal server licensing from working with any terminal server? -- Will

Hi, I have a TS that is also the Print Server for our network. I don't want TS users to be able to change the printers' settings. I would be even cooler to be able to define which printers they can see, but that isn't really an issue. More bothered about them fiddling around in there configuring defaults to undesirable settings. Any clues? TIA, Jarryd
