Guest Zoddy Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 We have our windows 2003 server with just the regular remote administration so administrators can log on and check out the server etc. Every once in a while RDP to this particular server just stops working. when you go into the server there are no obvious errors but the following is true: 1. Terminal Services is started but the option to stop or restart is grayed out 2. RPC service as well is the same issue 3. If you go into the Terminal Service manager and try to reset the RDP-TCP listener you get the following error Session ID (65536) reset Failed Error 5 - Access is denied and yes I am logged on as the domain admin in this case:) This doesnt happen a lot but it does happen once in a while on selected servers. The way we have been dealing with the issue is to reboot the server which releases the services. Any thoughts on why this might be happening, the server is updated with all packs and windows patches. cheers
Guest Ramasamy Pullappan [MSFT] Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Re: RDP on Desktops fails to connect to Server windows 2003 Hi, Observations 1 and 2 are by design in WS 03 and that doesn't have anything to do with the problem you've mentioned below (that is, you won't be able to stop/start TS or RPC) Sorry that without further debugging, nothing more can be given on this behavior. You can try calling Microsoft product support thanks ram. -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
