Windows 2003 Server R2 Can't access remotely via Remote Desktop

[Guest Rebecca Owens]

I need some serious help on this. I have done everything I can think of to

access this server remotely. I keep getting this error:

 

To logon to this remote computer, you must have Terminal Server User Access

permissions on this computer. By default members of the Remote Desktop Users

Group have these permissions. If you are not a member of the Remote Desktop

users group or another group with these permissions, or if the Remote Desktop

Group does not have these permissions, you must grant these permissions

manually.

 

I have tried updating the server, rebooting it, adding the permissions

manually, tried logging in as a different user with full admin permissions,

nothing seems to work.

 

Help me please!!!!

Sounds like you're running Windows 2003, is that correct?

What is the role of the server in the domain, member server or DC?

 

On a default installation of a member Windows 2003 server, the only

thing you have to do after installing Terminal Services is to add

the users to the *local* built-in group on the server which is

called "Remote Desktop Users".
