Guest Richard K Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 I have set up a Windows 2003 Terminal Server that part of a domain. When I try to login I get the message... "To log on to this remote computer, you must have Terminal Server User Access permissions on this computer. By default, members of the Remote Desktop User group have these permissions. If you are not a member of the Remote Desktop Users group or another group that has these permissions, or if the Remote Desktop User group does not have these permissions, you must be granted these permissions manually." I have verified that my domain login is part of the Remote Desktop User group. I even loosened the security to include "domain users" and the local box Administrator account to be part of that group. I even tried making all Domain Users part of the local Administrators group but no go. i even tried to logon as the local Administrator but same thing. What did I miss and what can I check because this is driving me crazy. Thanks! -Richard K
Guest Jeff Pitsch Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Re: Terminal Server Will Not Allow Login is this a domain controller? confirm that Remote Desktop Users group has the user right to "Allow logon to terminal services". if it's a domain controller, you can also add them into "Logon Locally" right. -- Jeff Pitsch Microsoft MVP - Terminal Services "Richard K" <RichardK@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:48327BF1-4A2F-4614-A42E-7A5F72123F8E@microsoft.com... >I have set up a Windows 2003 Terminal Server that part of a domain.

Guest Richard K Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Re: Terminal Server Will Not Allow Login This is NOT a domain controller but just another Windows 2003 server in a Windows 2003 domain. Knowing this how do I verify "allow logon to terminal services" has allowed Remote Desktop Users group (local to that computer)? Remember to I also tried to login using the local Administrators group and that failed as well.

Guest Jeff Pitsch Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Re: Terminal Server Will Not Allow Login You use gpedit.msc to confirm the User rights for the server. Allow logon through TS is a user right and remote desktop users should be assigned that right. -- Jeff Pitsch Microsoft MVP - Terminal Services "Richard K" <RichardK@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:0F96102E-1DFE-4974-87CD-4830EE7CA108@microsoft.com... > This is NOT a domain controller but just another Windows 2003 server in a > Windows 2003 domain.

Guest Richard K Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Re: Terminal Server Will Not Allow Login Local computer policy/computer configuration/windows settings/security settings/local policies/user rights assignment/allow login through terminal services.... shows "administrators, domain administrators and remote desktop users" as members. In the Remote Desktop Users local group on this server is also a membership for a domain security group I created for users who I want access to ts. As I said my account is a domain admin account and it will not work. I can't even log in using the local Adminstrators account which should also work. This one is stumping me. I must be missing something somewhere. "Jeff Pitsch" wrote: > You use gpedit.msc to confirm the User rights for the server.
