Win2008 Terminal Services Mandatory Profile Problems
by Guest Kat- 2 replies
- 298 views
My Windows 2008 terminal server is not on a domain. I would like to set mandatory profiles for the users connecting to terminal services. I have followed the instructions in the “Managing Roaming User Data Deployment Guide” but am having problems. I created a folder called Mandatory Profiles in the root of C: and have shared it out giving Everyone Full Permissions. Then I created a folder inside called mandatory.v2 as per the instructions. I set up my user with the settings I wanted and then went to the User Profile dialog box where I Copied the desired profile assigning permissions to Everyone as outlined in the instructions. Then I went to the fol…

KB951748 creates problems with USB printers
by Guest WDS- 0 replies
- 214 views
If a user has KB951748 installed, their USB printers will no longer connect properly to Terminal Services. Usually not even showing up as an available printer on the server. When they log off their PC will hang for several minutes. After logging off their printer will show on the server as still connected. While they are connected the printer does not show up. restarting the print spooler does clear out the old connections. If they untick printers under resources before doing the RDP connection then they logg off normally with no hang. If KB951748 is uninstalled the problem goes away until autoupdate puts it back in. Service Pack 3 appears to h…

Temporary Licenses for Windows 2000 Terminal Services CALS
by Guest Paul Hollings- 3 replies
- 305 views
I have just taken over support of an old W2000 (with SP4) server acting as a terminal server and a license server. Everything has been fine for about 4 or 5 years relating to external clients connecting via terminal services. Recently 1 client got the message "Terminal services temporary license expires in X days". When the X reached to 0 the user stopped being able to connect. If i try and connect i get the error "The remote computer disconnected the session because of an error in the licensing protocol. Please try connecing to the remote computer again or contact your server administrtor." Event ID 1004 "The terminal server cannot issue a client l…

TS deployment & licenses
by Guest Russ Goodwin- 4 replies
- 330 views
My customer currently runs a small office in workgroup mode with 7 PC's. Her 8 employees remotely RDP to each desktop and work from home. (2 are part time and share a PC). We want to colsolidate the desktops by putting a Windows 2003 Terminal Server on the network. Questions: Can the Terminal Server stay as a member server, and use local user accounts for her employees - or does there have to be a true Active Directory domain controller on the network? The Terminal Server server can also be the Terminal Server Licensing Server (i.e. both roles on the same hardware), correct? She needs a Windows Server 2003 CAL and a TS 2003 CAL for each employee…

Guide for Secure communication between client and TS
by Guest Goku 316- 3 replies
- 315 views
We have 2 TS farms both containing 2003 sp2 servers. For the general part the clients are outsiders with windows xp and higher. Also Mac clients are connected with the old and new rdp software from mactopia website. Worried about secure communication between the server and the clients. Want to avoid DoS attacks, dictionary password cracking as well as man in the middle scenarios. As it stands the Encryption level (in RDP-TCP properties) is set to “Client Compatible”. Will setting the encryption level to high be enough to be safe? It is 128 bit encryption. (I am aware of the SSL cert setup but trying to avoid this since the clients are all outsider…

New Twist (and problem) with TS...
by Guest NewMan- 9 replies
- 473 views
We have receontly installed a Win 2008 Server. I added the Hyoer-V role, and installed a virtual instance of a Win2000 Server. I have no problem accessing the WIn2000 server via Remote Desktop / Terminal Services. Here is the twist.... Non-Admin users cannot log on locally. No problem, there is an option for that Right???? WRONG! You cannot access the "Allow logon through Terminal Services" element of Group Policy when you are accessing the group policy via a Terminal Services Session! ACK! With a virtualized machine, the ONLY kind of connection is a Terminal Services Session! I tried accessing via the Hypervisor console, but all it does is con…

KB/Q Search, no RDP sfter reboot
by Guest STWright- 0 replies
- 246 views
Hi I have found an article in the past that explained the difference between a User initiated shutdown and a System initiated shutdown. Many of the repsonses to similar questions about "no rdp after reboot" mention the use of shutdown.exe, and this is indeed the fix offered by the KB/Q article I am looking for. However, I would like to be able to qoute the article number in some documentation for some procedures I am putting together. I have searched high and low but I am now requesting your help...who ever might come along. 930045 is not what I am after as it suggests a hanging server and that's not what I get. The article I want centered arou…

adding W2k8 terminal server to sbs2k3 domain
by Guest TomMiami- 5 replies
- 355 views
Current situation: SBS2k3 domain, 5 users inhouse running a server based database. Future situation requires 5 users in-house plus 5-10 users in-field. Please let me know if I am on the right (best and economical) path with this scenario: New Windows Server 2008 5 user (+ 5 later if/when reqd) New Terminal Services Lic 5 user (+ 5 later if/when reqd) Continue to serve db on SBS2k3 to in-house users and in-field users through new TS (W2k8) server to sbs2k3. I believe RemoteApp will be a winner for us. Do we need 5 additional licences for the SBS2k3? Any suggestions would be greatley appreciated!
