Our workstations are running Windows XP.

They are part of a Windows 2003 Domain.

In the Remote Control tab of Properties for "My Computer", the settings are:

- Enable Remote Control

- Not reuqire user's permission

- Level of Control = interact with the session

 

From a Windows 2003 Domain Controller, I opened Terminal Service Manager,

click Actions | Connect to Computer. it gives me the message "Server was not

found". I thought I used to be able to do this over a year ago. Not sure

what I changed so now I no longer can connect to remotely control the XP

workstations. Please help. Thanks!

 

 

 

I enter the IP address of an XP Workstation to try to Remote Control it, but

it gives me the message

You have to do this from within a TS session. Shadowing doesn't

work from the console of the server.

Can you please explain how to do this from a TS session? Not sure how to get

to a TS session. Terminal Services was installed in Administration Mode.

Does it need to be in Application Mode?

OK, sorry, I thought you wanted to shadow another rdp session.

Let's try this one instead :-)

 

From

http://ts.veranoest.net/ts_faq_administration.htm#XPSP2remote

 

Q: How can I Remote Control my Windows XP SP2 client from within

Terminal Services Manager?

 

A: ServicePack 2 disabled this feature. You can enable it again by

creating the following registry entry on the XP client:

 

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server

"AllowRemoteRPC" = REG_DWORD:1

 

Also make sure that the Windows firewall on the client is

configured to allow File and Print sharing, as well as Remote

Desktop.
