TSAdvertise Feature - how exactly does it work ...
by Guest anonymous- 1 reply
- 574 views
Hi group, does anyone know or have some documents, links, ressources how the tsadvertise feature exactly works? I was wondering because I enabled the registry key (according to KB281307) on all of our servers that we access using RDP and now I am able to see all servers in my RDP-client. Of course that's what I wanted. But for interesst I'd like to know why I also see servers in other network segments. So it is for sure no broadcast mechanism. But how does it work instead? tia for your help Greetings, Marco

Log on time restricitons
by Guest FL- 4 replies
- 572 views
I have a Windows 2003 64bit TS server and before you suggest using the 2x secure RDP tool, it doesn't work on a 64bit system. I am looking to apply log on restrictions where users cannot log in on my terminal server after a certain period of time. Is there any way to do that via Group Policy or other method that only affects log ons to the terminal server? Also, can I restrict the domain account from being able to log in via TS only (don't think so)?

by Guest George Valkov- 6 replies

Remote desktop for Administration mode. Suppose that two user are logged on the terminal server. (all 2 available slots are busy) Now what if an Administrator has to logon (emergency) from far away place on the internet side? I receive this error: The terminal server has exceeded the maximum number of allowed connections. How do I tell the server to throw a dice and disconnect or logoff someone (it doesn't matter who)? It is more important that the Administrator can logon. What options are available? 1. A configuration or registry setting? Where? 2. /console ? 3. What if I do not want to logoff the console session? Thank You for any advice and…

Windows TS 2008 + licensserver
by Guest HellslayeR- 13 replies
- 571 views
Hello. I'm experiencing a problem with windows 2008 terminal server and my windows 2008 licens server. The problem is quite simple: The license server dosent give licenses to my 2008 terminal servers but it will however give out licenses to windows 2003 servers. This leads me to belive that there's some setting I've overlooked at my license server or my 2008 terminal servers. My TS can discover the license server and bring up information about how many cals and so forth so they can see and bring up information from the licens server. Using group policy I've specified the license server to be used. On the license server itself I've added the ser…

Windows Desktop Search on Terminal Servers
by Guest Cary Shultz- 4 replies
- 565 views
Good morning! I wanted to ask what the general consensus is with respect to deploying the 'latest and greatest' Windows Desktop Search software running on Terminal Server. Just to be clear - my opinion is that it really affects performance (in a negative way). Assuming that others have the same opinion is there anything that can be done (outside of removing it...). Thanks, Cary

I would like to implement a TS server in our environment. My question to you guys is how much does the Windows Server 2003 license cost and how much are the CAL's for the TS server? Do I have to purchase just as many client access licenses as I would CAL's for the TS? Or can I get away with one client access licenses and purchase as many CAL's as needed?

migrate local user profiles to a new terminal server session
by Guest Jorge R- 5 replies
- 555 views
We are in the process of deploying a new terminal server, the challenge is to migrate the user profile from the local workstations to the terminal server user profiles, to minimize changes in the user community. There was no terminal server before, so the user profiles all are on the local machines running either Windows XP SP2 or Windows 2000 Pro SP4. The domain is a Windows 2003 Active directory. Any help on how to automate this will be greatly appreciated.

RemoteApp vs. full Remote Desktop
by Guest Blake- 3 replies
- 549 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
