Guest Thomas Roes Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 L.S. A client of mine has installed SP2 on one of there 2003 servers. From that moment on Terminal Services is not working anymore. I've discovered the following: - MMC says terminal services is started BUT i cannot (start)/stop/ restart the service. - net start/stop TermService fail with error 2182 (already started) and 2191 (not valid) - Eventlog does not have any messages about why terminal service is not running - There is no service listening on port 3389 - There is no firewall issue - mstsc /v:localhost also does not work (The Client could not connect to the remote computer TCP/IP Trace shows the SYN frame followed by an RST, ACK response. Any suggestions Thomas Roes There is no one at thomasr1@xs4all.nl
Guest Vera Noest [MVP] Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Re: Terminal Services not functioning on 2003 sp2 Mmm, this problem has been reported quite a few times, and I have actually encountered it myself on one out of 15 identical servers. The fact that you can't stop or restart the TS service is by design, as documented here: 278657 - Terminal Services Cannot Be Manipulated http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=278657 So the service is running, but it's not listening on port 3389. The only solution that I know of, and which solved my problem, is to delete the existing rdp-tcp connection, reboot the server, and recreate it (use all the default settings). This must be done at the console of the server, in Terminal Services Configuration. _________________________________________________________ Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server TS troubleshooting: http://ts.veranoest.net ___ please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email ___ Thomas Roes <thomasr1@xs4all.nl> wrote on 18 jul 2007 in microsoft.public.windows.terminal_services: > L.S. > > A client of mine has installed SP2 on one of there 2003 servers. > From that moment on Terminal Services is not working anymore. > > I've discovered the following: > > - MMC says terminal services is started BUT i cannot > (start)/stop/ restart the service. > - net start/stop TermService fail with error 2182 (already > started) and 2191 (not valid) > > - Eventlog does not have any messages about why terminal service > is not running > > - There is no service listening on port 3389 > > - There is no firewall issue > > - mstsc /v:localhost also does not work (The Client could not > connect to the remote computer > > TCP/IP Trace shows the SYN frame followed by an RST, ACK > response. > > Any suggestions > > Thomas Roes > There is no one at thomasr1@xs4all.nl

Term Services came right up after the re-install. Hope this helps.
