Windows 2008 Terminal Services

[Guest GKnight]

Hi There,

I have 2 questions regarding Windows 2008 Web TS

 

I have configured web ts and it all appears to be working, when I login

within the network I am not prompted for login credentials to display the

webpart containing the remoteapps but I do receive a request for login

credentials when I try to launch one of the remoteapps.

 

When login in remotely I get the first login, for which I provide my domain

credentials to display my RemoteApps web page as I would expect but I will

then be asked to provide further credentials when I try to launch one of the

applications.

 

How do I stop this second login?

 

Question 2;

Is there any way or removing the remote desktop tab for non admin users?

 

Thanks in Advance

1) Sorry, we don't have shared credentials between these two, in Win2008.

2) You can remote the tab for all users, but not just for non-admin users.

See ShowDesktops in web.config. For non-admin only, you could probably do

some customization of Default.aspx. See the section starting with:

if (ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ShowDesktops"].ToString() ==

"true")

{

Sorry maybe I didn't make myself clear enough, can you explain why on the

local network I am prompted for my credentials to launch an application from

the remoteapps tab?

If you want to use your currently logged-on credentials to start a

RemoteApp, see
