Bootable thin client
by Guest ~~Alan~~- 1 reply

I am new to learning and getting involved with Terminal Services. I'm trying to learn this on my own. I have a few older PCs that in order to run Windows, they need a lot of upgrading which takes money and I do not want to have to deal with the basic windows maintenance, licenseing, etc. I would like to know if anyone knows of a bootable, probably linux based and free, OS that will turn an older PC into a thin client? thanks, ~alan

Restoring Terminal Server licenses
by Guest JK in Nebraska- 1 reply
- 482 views
My SBS 2003 server crashed the other day. When I restored system state, several key applications would not run. In order to get the system back up and running, I ended up with a new installation then restored AD and Exchange. One of my remaining problems is that this server also acted as a terminal services license server. Unfortunately, all of the terminal server license ducumentation was misplaced during a recent move and I have yet to locate them. Is there a way to recover the terminal server licenses from backup without restoring the system state?

License Issued 0
by Guest Yuri NLD- 3 replies

Hi, I’ve installed Terminal Server Licensing on two Domain Controller’s. The servers are activated and TS User CAL’s are installed. (MPLS agreement) When I start the Terminal Server Licensing Tool on the Terminal Server it discover the two DC’s. Only the column Issued is 0 I didn’t expect that because yours are logged on. I’ve checked: - license mode on the TS and it is Per User - no errors in the TS event viewer when users log on - no errors in de DC event viewer when users log on - I’m using auto discovery mode (and it works, because the TS automatically shows me the two DC’s) I found this article: http://blogs.msdn.com/ts/archive/2008/02/01/li…

I have a windows server 2003 terminal server so i told my group policy to use fallback pcl driver and then deleted printer drivers from terminal server. and indeed it fallsback to deskjet 500, but when clients print some reports they dont come out right. so i manually changed driver to 4/4m ps and it prints out fine. so i said okay, and told my group policy to fallback to ps driver, all printers are hp and support ps, gpupdated ts server, rebooted. and this morning they all use 500 pcl driver again. so how do i make them use ps instead of pcl fallback driver.

RemoteApp vs. full Remote Desktop
by Guest Blake- 3 replies
- 538 views
I've read in some places where I can give a user access to a RemoteApp WITHOUT giving them full remote desktop. I've also read the opposite. Can I give someone the ability to use RemoteApp (Windows 2008 TS server, obviously) without giving them the ability to actually log into a full fledged deskop via RDP? ie - I'd like to keep them off the desktop for security reasons. Thanks Blkae

2008 Easy print issue
by Guest David- 9 replies

Hi, I have a 32bit 2008 Enterprise TS running and I'm having issues with Easy print. The clients are XP SP3 with .NET 3.5, or Vista SP1 with .NET 3.5. When a user logs on, he sees the redirected printers without me having to install any driver. Great... Now when someone prints something, the text comes out garbled. (pictures are ok) I uploaded a few examples I scanned to my personal webpage @ http://users.telenet.be/obsession2001/easyprint.zip (348kb) * Mail1.jpg = Printout Outlook 2007. Headers appear fine. Text is jibberish except a few small words at the end (part of my signature - not entire signature is ok) * Excel.pdf = printout Excel 2003. …

Good Day Please can someone help, i have a Windows 2003 server with around 50 users connecting to it, sometimes the TS will keep their printers from previous sessions, so it will show two printers eg: HP1018 in session 10 and HP1018 in session 12 , i think this maybe from the users being disconnected if the line drops, or maybe if they close the terminal sever session by clicking on the cross at the top of the screen instead of logging off correctly by going, start - logoff. Another problem that happens is that quite often it will show all the printers on the server instead of just the users printers. So i was wandering if there was a way to stop th…

Users must not connect to active session
by Guest Count Blackula- 5 replies
- 626 views
Hi everybody! I have following scenario/problem: W2003 TS running in a school. To avoid too many dead sessions, the session count per user is restricted to 1 session only. Also the "reconnect only from same client" hook is set. In the logon script there is a logoff session that compares username and clientname to a ini-file so that the students can only logon with e.g User01 on Terminal01 User02 on Terminal02 and so on. The problem now is, that some "funny" students discovered, that they can take over a active session from their neighbour by logging on at their trm with the neighbours credentials. Since it is a school there are no passwords set so if user01…

Disable sound in RDP not working
by Guest Chris- 4 replies
- 476 views
OK I have a TS 2008 server setup. GPEDIT I disable sound in TS. In terminal services config I disable redirection of sound. On the clients I disable redirection of sound. The server doesn't even have a sound card in it. What I get is the old PC speaker BEEP whenever a user clicks on confirmations like when they are printing. I even disabled PC speaker in the server and the remote workstation, it still beeps. Anyone have any ideas? Second question is printing from the server. IF they select extra copies of a print job they get multiples. Like if they was 2 copies, they get 4. Or if they want 3 copies they get 6. Any printer, any software. Seems like the T…

I have problem in controlling which devices are allowed to be enabled and disabled by users on Remote Desktop Tab of TS Web Access. I have set "true" to XClipboard and xDriverRedirection, and "false" to other redirection options in Application Settings of ts website. But the ts web page does not honor such changes (Printers option is still enabled and Drives option is disabled). Any one knows the fix? Thanks.
