Greetings- I have a Windows 2003 R2 Std Ed. SP2 32-bit server that is acting as DC for our network. Within the last couple months, we have been receiving the following error when trying to connect via RDP: "The computer can't connect to the remote computer." TS on the server is running in admin mode, checkbox is enabled under the "Remote" tab and users/groups have the proper access. This issue happens with XP/Vista clients running both RDP clients 5.2 and 6.1 There is no pattern to this occuring. It work for weeks then all of a sudden the above error appears when trying to connect. Rebooting the server is the only way to get RDP to start working pro…

Adding Terminal Services using ocsetup.exe
by Guest Lars Wurm- 3 replies
- 242 views
Hi, I am aware that servermanagercmd.exe is the CLI for adding components into the GUI version of 2008. However, since ocsetup.exe is working on both GUI and core version I want to make a generic script (which is in place) for adding components on both platforms. When adding a component into the GUI version, I can from taskmgr.exe see that an instance of ocsetup.exe is kicked off... my problem is that I dont seem to find the OC name for terminal services within 2008, that maps to the ocsetup.exe tool, or from the WAIK tools which often give u a hint what the name is if u wanna add it using ocsetup.exe. Has anyone come across the name for Terminal Servic…

Terminal Services/Server & RD for Admin
by Guest MG- 2 replies

I ‘m sorry but I’m a Network neophyte. I just bought and installed SBS 2003. I wanted to be able to do two things: 1. Let my clients access their data but no one else’s 2. Be able to access the server remotely from my home PC. So, I was doing some research and found this reply from a Microsoft rep. “OK, long story, but here goes: In Windows 2000 Terminal Services, there are 2 different TS modes: 1) Terminal Services in Remote Administration mode This mode gives you a maximum of 2 simultaneous connections to the server, without additional licensing requirements. Designed for Administrators, to access the server remotely. By default, only Administrators…

About a week ago someone posted a link from HP's website that listed supported printers for TS. (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c00213455) But the document states it's for Citrix Presentation Server. I'm trying to find something comparable for Microsoft's TS. Does anyone know of such a document?

RDC Logins not Completing - stick on 'hourglass'
by Guest goneill- 2 replies
- 229 views
We run Remote Desktop Connection for all our users to connect to Terminal Servers (Windows 2003). They connect from PCs (XP and Vista) which are logged on locally, but connected to our Domain. Some users frequently find when logging on to their RDC session, that the logon process does not appear to complete and they get their session opening with the 'hourglass' curser permanently on show. The only fix appears to be to get a Domain Administrator to log-off their session from the Terminal Services Manager so they can try again. Sometimes it takes a few tries before they can get a working RDC session. The problem is not isolated to one Terminal Server…

Hello Everyone I don't have alot of experience with terminal services, hope some of you may be able to help. we have 10 terminal server running on 2003, each terninal server hosting different apps. Printer drivers are installed on each local terminal server. this is an administration nightmare, i am just thinking , is it possible to setup a centralise printer server and tell all terminal server to use the centralise server for printing. so when users connect to the terminal session, they will get the driver from the centralise printer server. not the local drivers from the terminal server. Any sugeestion will be really appreciate it

hello I have 10 clients with winxp pro sp2 on location A connecting via site-to-site vpn to location B on a TS Server. I have an issue with printing.When one client from location A tries to initiate a print job from his ts session to a printer located on site A which is mapped on TS server with a virtual port (\\ip\printer share name), the print job becomes huge (about 1.6mb a simple test page) and takes ages of course to be printed. A simple test page printed locally takes about 40kb. Any ideas why this happens? is there any solution? thank you

Limit remote acces to server
by Guest Miha- 3 replies
- 237 views
Hi Is it possible to limit remote access to Win2k3 server so that you could remote connect only to the console session (mstsc.exe /console)? If I disable remote access than also /console switch doesn't work, but if I set that only 1 connection is possible to server, it is possible that besides /console session another admin logs into server, but I want that /console session will be the only way to remotely connect to a server. Thank you in advance Regards, Miha

I’m trying to find MS documentation outlining the extent to which the Mac RDC 2.0 client can be used with W2K8 Terminal Services Gateway (e.g., using port 443, etc.; see http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/library/9da3742f-699d-4476-b050-c50aa14aaf081033.mspx) and how to configure it to do so. Microsoft documentation seems to imply such functionality under the following logic: (1) The Mac RDC 2.0 client implements the RDP 6.0 protocols (see http://mac.microsoft.com/MacOffice/en-US/Help/870500bb-d48d-4f90-b993-7d5a3f6f654c1033.mspx); (2) Windows 2008 TSG is compatible with clients that support RDP 6.0 protocols (see http://support.micr…

Problem with local resources

Hi, I have a 2003 Server that I want to connect with via RDP from XP clients, and start a program automatically on connection to the 2003 Server. This all works fine except the local printers on the XP clients are not available in the RDP Session. It makes no difference if the program is start via the RDP client or via the Environment Settings in the users Properties. If I use the same login details and don't start the program automatically, but start it manually after connection to the 2003 Server the local printer resources are available. Can anyone tell me why the printer resources are not available when I automatically start a program? TIA Gr…

Hi, We have a Win2k3 TS in workgroup mode that connects us to our Netware server. We're (finally!) getting rid of our Netware server & replacing it with a Win2k3 server. The new server will be a domain. What's the best practice for changing the TS server from wg mode to domain mode? Just join the domain? Make it some sort of a controller? These will be our only 2 servers. Thx, DD

TS 2003: RDP-listener gone
by Guest HarryH- 2 replies
- 211 views
Hello, we are using Remote Desktop frequently for remote server administration. All servers are running 2003 STD SP2 EN. Yesterday a colleague wanted to restart the server. It seems that it did not really restart, since the log does not contain the typical 3 Event-log messages. But today the server is not excepting remote desktop connections anymore. The Terminal Service is running and cannot be restarted (as by Microsoft design). In TSAdmin there is no rdp-listener anymore. I have already tried to disable and enable the rdp-Connection in TSCC.msc. That was no problem but I still don't have an rdp listener. Running QWinsta.exe from the command line …

TS User Permissions for environment variables
by Guest Chris- 4 replies
- 271 views
We have an application that requires a unique environment variable to be set for each TS user, the only way I have found to set and keep the environment variable is to give the user administrator rights. I tried granting the user admin rights to create the environment variable and then remove the admin rights but it removes the variable and the application wont run. I have tried most of the standard permissions but can't find one that will allow the use of environment variables, except administrator. I would appreciate any information of how I can create permissions to use environment variable without giving the user admin rights. -- Regards Chris
