Terminal Server Group Policy Question


Recommended Posts

I have a windows 2003 domain controller and a Windows 2003 Terminal

Server.

 

In a OU I have a Management Group Policy in which I configureed the

computer configuration and the user coniguration areas dealing with

terminal services.

 

User Config > Admin Templates > Windows Components > Terminal Services

> Sessions

Computer Configuration > Admin Templates > Windows Components >

Terminal Services > Sessions

 

For testing I set the "Sets a time limit for active but idle Terminal

Services sessions" to 1 min. I force the group policy update then

log into the Terminal Server and idle for 5 min. It never

disconnects.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks

Can you check first if the policy is applied, by running GPResult at the

command prompt?

You should run an rsop.msc and gpresult on the TS box while logged in as the

user - and this policy should have loopback processing enabled.

 

After you do that, I suggest you crosspost this question & the results

(don't multipost!) to microsoft.public.windows.terminal_services *and*

microsoft.public.windows.group.policy for the most expert help.

What value do you actually have in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows

NT\Terminal Services\MaxIdleTime?
