terminal server sessions limited to 30

[Guest BW]

Hi,

 

We have a duel 2.8GHz Xeon w/ 4GB RAM running win2k3 sp2 and terminal

services that staff connect to via RDP. We are seeing that after a few days

all of a sudden a limit of 30 users starts. If there are 30 users on anyone

who attempts to log on receives a profile cannot load error and the session

closes. If we jump onto terminal services manager and logoff users so there

is under 30, then people can log on again. Only happens after a few days of

running and before it happens we can have anything up to 50 concurrent users

working fine. Really confusing us. Has anyone seen this? The server is

updated with latest patches and we saw this issue both before and after

installing sp2.

 

thanks.

Your server is running out of some resource, probably memory related.

Check the EventLog on the server, there should be a warning there

which gives you more information.

Just an additional thought. On the server, under system properties, advance

tab, look at the user profiles. If there are any "unknown" profiles, delete

them.

Hope this helps
