Connecting to TS Server

[Guest Dave]

the problem i am having is reconnecting to the TS immediately after

disconnection, or/and trying to connect two times from a remote location.

 

a little more detail on the setup. this is a multi site setup. servers and

users at the main site and users at remote sites. 3 remote sites 1 with a vpn

tunnel 2 with no vpn tunnel. all users have thin client machines (no pc's).

all users can connect and use the app on the TS, works great, but - when a

user at a remote site logs out and then immediately tries to reconnect they

cannot and receive a network time out error. after about 5 min. they are able

to reconnect.

one remote site with vpn tunnel has 2 thin clients, they do not have

problems connecting both thin clients to TS. one remote site has no vpn and

they are unable to connect 2 thin clients. one remote site no vpn 1 thin

client no problem connecting. The only problem is reconnecting or connecting

2 thin clients from no vpn site

i use rpd to both servers for admin and also have the same problem

reconnecting to both servers.

 

Thank you in advance.

Re: Connecting to TS Server

 

Why are they disconnecting and then immediately reconnecting? What are they

trying to do exactly? that's not typcial behaviour even for users. Are you

sure they are disconnecting? during this time is the session in a

disconnect state or active state? Any errors in the logs on the server?

Re: Connecting to TS Server

 

you are correct this is not normal of users. but say i need to change access

to a folder or change a group police, then they need to log off and

reconnect. the issue is not why we need to do this but more the fact that we

cannot do this for what ever reason we have. as for the sessions they are

logging off not disconnecting so the sessions are ended.

 

hope this helps

Re: Connecting to TS Server

 

First, you didn't answer the other questions. Again, what state is the

session in on the server and are there any errors in the logs? Also, have

you tried disabling any anti-virus or firewalls on the servers? Are the

users able to telnet to 3389 during this time? Ping the servers?

 

Second, you have absolutely confirmed that the logoff process is complete

before the users try to connect back in? You've checkd the consoles? Just

because the user see's nothing on their end doesn't mean the session is

logged off yet. It simply means the window was closed on the end point.

Re: Connecting to TS Server

 

the session is ended on the server and there are no errors in the logs.

have not tried to disable anti-virus or the ISA firewall. this is really not

an option with this customer as they work 24/7/365. we are unable to ping the

servers because of router configuration. we cannot telnet to port 3389 but

this maybe because of ISA?.

 

we have a similar setup with another customer. this customer has a w2k3

server and a w2k3 TS server. they are not running ISA and have 5 sites

connected via VPN routers. they are able to logoff and then logon immediately

with not problems. so I’m wondering if the problem is with the TS server or

maybe with the ISA server or maybe ???? I just don’t know where the problem

is.

Re: Connecting to TS Server

 

it seem that we are not able to reconnect any same service connection

immdeiately after disconnection. i reconfigured the isa server rules to allow

telnet connections to the TS server. i was able to connect to the server but

once i disconnected the telnet session i was unable to reconnect.

Re: Connecting to TS Server

 

IMHO, it really sounds like an ISA configuration issue. Especially after

what you described with your other customer. Unfortuantely I know enough

about ISA to be dangerous but not enough to be able to help. I would post

this in the ISA forums as well as I believe they will be able to help you

better than us here.

Re: Connecting to TS Server

 

after more trouble shooting, we discovered that we had an external router

issue. we replaced the router at the main office and all our problems have

gone away.

we are now able to log off and log on as often and as quickly as we need too.

 

thank you for all your help
