Application is losing authentication to IIS server

September 18, 2014, 6:59 am

We have a Server 2008 R2 terminal server with an application on it that is losing it's authentication to our IIS server. Basically you log in to the application and when you begin to work in it, it tells you it has lost it's connection to the server. At that point, you have to close and reopen the program and it will work again for a while until the same issue occurs. What is weird though is that if we open up Internet Explorer on the server and then launch the application, the problem doesn't occur. So there seems to be some sort of Internet Explorer setting that is getting applied that is allowing the authentication to work.

The application in IIS is using Windows Authentication. Has anyone ever ran in to an issue like this before?

RemoteApp stays when minimized

I have a RemoteApp on WIndows Server 2012 R2. When opening this remoteapp on a Windows 7 sp1 client, the remoteapp opens just fine. When I minimize the remoteapp, it minimized, but also stays visible on the screen. When hovering over it, it "erases" the remoteapp screen. Very annoying.

When the Win7 client has the Aero theme enabled, this does not happen. However, due to some limitation of a docking station, we need the basic theme.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

How to undo the automatically start program to when a user logs on

I have followed this following directions (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc736643%28v=ws.10%29.aspx#BKMK_TSC) :

"Using Terminal Services Configuration

    • Open Terminal Services Configuration.
    • In the console tree, click Connections.
    • In the details pane, right-click the connection for which you want to specify an initial program, and then clickProperties.
    • On the Environment tab, under Initial program, selectStart the following program when the user logs on. This option allows you to configure an initial program for the connection.

      • If you select Do not allow an initial program to be launched. Always show desktop, then Terminal Services cannot start a specified initial program automatically when a client connects to a terminal server. Instead, the user must start programs by using the default desktop that is displayed during the Terminal Services session.
    • If you select Run initial program specified by user profile and Remote Desktop Connection or Terminal Services client, then the program that is specified in the default user profile and in Remote Desktop Connection or the Terminal Services client will run when the client connects to the terminal server.
  1. If you selected Start the following program when the user logs on, inProgram path and file name, type the path and file name of the program that you want to start when the user logs on to the terminal server.
  2. In Start in, type the working directory path for the program, and then clickOK."

    3. the problem is that now all of the server users get the specific program automatically starts when logged on and i cant undo it because i cant get to the desktop or to the "tscc.msc"

    is there a way to fix it?

    self assigned or trusted certificate for no Gateway scenario

    hi,

    1.  RDS server 2012 R2 is deployed and I can access published app byhttps://servername/rdweb

    2.  RD Gateway will be never used (only LAN connections)

    3. Would self signed certificate prevent to achieve THE GOAL:

    need to publish an app by providing shortcut on user desktop in completely transparent for user manner.

    There is no problem with purchasing a Trusted certificate. I thought that trusted will be necessary (less hassle) if RD Gateway is in place. But still have a feeling that even for publishing a shortcut there will be some pop up after user click on an icon if Self Assigned will be present.

    Please clarify.

    Thanks.

    im running windows 2012 R2 session host farm and i want to take advantage of NLA for all my clients.

    Nevertheless, i have legacy clients that still need to connect without NLA

    As far as i can see, the only way to enable NLA on Windows 2012 R2 is to enforce NLA.

    Is there  any option to configure my Windows 2012 R2 Session farm so that it accept NLA if supported by the client and to allow also normal not NLA connections from the other legacy clients?

    Hi Everyone,

    I am trying to publish Crystal Reports 2011 via RemoteApp Manager and I want to associate all Crystal Report files with the .msi I am creating so when people open local .rpt they open with Published App.

    The problem is that when I go to create .msi file and I check: "Associate client extensions for this program with the remoteApp program" the filed "Take over the following file extensions:" remains empty. I need .rpt files associated with Crystal Reports.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you,

    UAC Stopping Program for Users

    I have 25 users effected by this problem. A particular program installed on the Terminal Server (Windows Server 2012 R2) that all users must access will not run unless users are given administrative rights. As soon as we run the program the box pops up that says, "do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?". I do NOT want to turn off the UAC and cannot give users administrative rights to the terminal server either. And I can't have them entering the administrative password every time they access this software. I need a way to allow this program to run for all users without prompting for admin user login info.

    Hi Folks,
    Searching information for applications ClickOnce, in RDS 2012 R2, in Remote Desktop Services Blog, I read these applications can't published as RemoteApp programs directly, they can now be installed and run from their hosting website through a web browser such as Internet Explorer published as a RemoteApp program.

    Exist another form in the solve is the challenge?

    I can solve these challenge using RDS combined with App-v.

    Suggestions?

    Thanks a lot!

    A Way to publish a RemoteApp as a % percentage of Client Desktop?

    We are in the process of migrating from a W2k3 with Citrix PS 4.5 environment to a W2k12R2 RDS environment with RemoteApps. The most important remoteapp is written in a way that new windows open when you click on items. On our new RDS environment, many times these Windows are opening behind other windows and they are in effect hidden from the end user.

    In the Citrix environment, this application was published as a % percentage of Client Desktop and I believe this was done because of this problem. Is there a way using a third party tool or otherwise to publish my RDS Remote app as a % of Client Desktop or maybe not make it seamless?

    Thank you,

    Video Hardware Acceleration RDS 2012R2

    We have a virtualized RDS 2012R2 server which is having cpu resource problems.

    The cause as we've found out is Google Chrome, when hardware acceleration is enabled it causes 20% cpu or more being used per user.

    As soon as we disable hardware acceleration cpu use goes down to normal levels.

    The problem is Google don't offer a method to globally disable this setting, they do have a Google Chrome admx file, but it doesn't offer the option to disable hardware acceleration.

    I've been manually disabling this setting by going to each user, which causes an issue, not all users are in the office when I'm onsite, so, every week I have to check cpu performance and find the user.

    Instead of disabling the hardware acceleration, is there a way that the RDS supports this configuration?

    If we buy a dedicated graphics card and we add a RemoteFX 3D Video Adapter to the virtual RDS server, will this take off the Google Chrome Hardware Acceleration Load?

    How many remote desktop sessions will be supported with video hardware acceleration?

    We use the RDS server as a traditional terminal server, users logon the terminal server from a thinclient.

    Hi

    I have installed Windows Server Remote Desktop Service on a Server 2012R2, but I installed it from role based feature based installation. I configured remote desktop license server with my Agreement and Authorization number but still it shows I have 120 days to active the remote desktop server license. In server 2008 I did the same, but then it was successfully licensed, but in server 2012 it’s not. So, how should I install remote desktop service in server 2012 and licensed it?

    Thanks. <o:p></o:p>

    Is it normal that the CSR key continues to populate even if the CSR is disabled (verified with 'Get-Printer -Full |fl')?

    BTW winprint is used for all the printers on the print servers, and non-microsoft monitors are deleted.

    RD Session Broker will not redirect to the Collection Servers.

    Host server running 2012 Hyper V with 3 VM's

    One RD Broker configured

    Two Session Hosts in a collection - not in drain mode.

    All are 2012 R2

    I can use RDweb and the RD broker will divert me to one of the host servers. I can use the RDP icon and works.

    I would rather use the new remote desktop app in windows 8, and use Desktop Sessions (Terminal Services), not VDI or RD web.

    I'm hoping that the Broker is in drain mode but the server will not redirect. I am not sure what's going on, I haven't placed the domain users in the remote desktop users on the Broker because I cannot place the Broker into drain mode like I had in the pass with 2008 R2

    Doesn't make sense and I have done a heap of searching.

    My objective is to use the remote desktop app and log into one of 2 servers with a desktop session.

    I believe this is the error I need to get past.

    I have placed Broker into the Windows Authorization Access Group

    Remote Desktop Connection Broker Client failed to redirect the user domain\user. Error:NULL

    RDS Broker 2012 R2 High Availability : is Failover Cluster still an option ?

    Hello all,

    I've been looking for information on this but couldn't find it anywhere, so here I go.

    I want to know if the "old" way of providing HA for the RDS broker role is still supported (RDSH servers behind, no VDI) ?

    Can we still make it highly available using a failover cluster, in an active/passive set up ?

    I am aware of the new way of doing it, with an SQL database behind it, but for several reasons it is not ideal :

    1- adding a SQL server adds complexity and more skills needed to maintain the plateforme. And license cost.

    2- as long as the SQL server isn't highly available itself, it isn't truly highly available. So SQL HA needed, which again adds complexity. And license cost again.

    For big deployments the added cost/complexity can be justified, but right now I am designing a small (30 users) RDS platform and it's really not worth it IF the old, simple way (failover cluster) is still available.

    Thanks for the help !

    Access is Denied - Remote Desktop

    I have set up my Server (2008 R2 Foundation) for remote desktop and RemoteApp as per the instructions provided by Microsoft.  I am using a single server for all functions.  When a user logs in to the Server through remote desktop, the remote desktop screen comes up and then the user immediately gets an 'Access is Denied' message.  If the user connects through RDWeb, the RemoteApps are displayed, but when the user clicks on an application, they are prompted again for their login credentials and then they get the remote desktop screen with an 'Access is Denied' screen as well.  This happens even for Administrators.

    I am getting very frustrated with this as I have read many blogs and tried everything to no avail.  PLEASE help me.

    Multi monitor issues with resolution(?)

    At a customer I have got a really strange and annoying problem. The customer has got a Hyper-V VM with 2012 R2 Server as a RDS server aka Terminal Server.

    One user has got issues with his multi monitor setup. The connection settings seems to be OK. It is set to full screen and the checkbox for the multi monitor configuration is enabled. Theoretically this works because the user sees a correct setup with one primary display and one secondary display. The settings itself are correct.

    1. Primary display: 1680*1050
    2. Secondary display: 27" 1920*1080

    The display settings on the client are nearly the same except that the numbers of the two monitors are different (those numbers you get when you click identify at the resolution change window). On the Windows 7 client the primary display number 2 and the 27" has got the number 1. On the Terminal Server the primary display has got the number 1 and the 27" display has got the number 2. But the corresponding resolution at the display number is correct.

    Now the problem. Everything seems fine, the desktop is expended. But when the user is "touching" the top or bottom edge of the screen the display is scrolling (in full screen) -  like in a 3D game scrolling over a map. The user told me that both screens are scrolling equally at the same time. I am not sure but the user told me that if he is going to the bottom the CLIENT task bar appears. Changing the task bar of the client to fixed the user told me that the task bar will always show up. - Strange that CTRL + ALT + BREAK does not work.

    I tried to press CTRL + ALT + BREAK twice, changing the resolution to a fixed value and back to full screen again, changing the primary display to the new 27" monitor, adding smart sizing:i:1 to rdp file and upgrading the Intel HD 4600 laptop graphic drivers (must be downloaded from Lenovo :/). NOTHING helped :(.
    But this strange behavior does not exist on the client. Opening two programs (simple notepad e.g.) on each display and maximize them and moving the mouse the screen borders won't show this problem. It only exist on the remote session. 

    Now the "funny" part. If I connect with Team Viewer to the client the problem disappears as long as I am connected. If I disconnect the problem shows up again.

    2012 R2 RDS Temporary Profile issue

    I have set up a standard 3 node 2012 R2 RDS for testing. All virtualized on VMware ESXi 5.0. I have a connection Broker, session host, and web access server. I have published several applications and I can access them without a problem. Here is my issue:

    When I try to log on to my session host server either locally or thru RDP, I am always logged in with a Temporary profile. It does not mater what user account I use. Even logging on locally as the administrator I get a temporary profile.

    All windows updates are installed and current.

    I have removed the server from the domain, deleted the account, and rejoined it to the domain.

    I have deleted all .bak registry entries from here:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

    There is a hotfix here for a similar issue on 2012 but it does not apply to 2012 R2

    The only event viewer errors are:

    1515 (Windows has backed up this user profile. Windows will automatically try to use the backup profile the next time this user logs on.)

    1511 (Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.)

    Any suggestions to resolve would be greatly appreciated.
