Private CA signed certificate for Remote Desktop for Administration
Hi,
I have a signed certificate by a private CA to use as a certificate for Remote Desktop for Administration.
I received a p7b file that I imported via MMC in Certificates (Local Computer) Personal chain. There I got a regular certificate and the private CA certificate.
When I look at the certificate and the certificate path it says "This certificate is OK". The intended purpose is "Server authentication"
But when I go to Remote Desktop Host Configuration Tool and then the connection section -> properties -> General -> Security and click on the select button it says: "There are no certificates installed on this Remote Desktop Session Host Server."
I have also copied the certificates to the Remote Desktop of MyComputer section and the Private CA key to Trusted Root CA authorities but to no avail.
Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks!

RDS Gateway Randomly Unavailable
I currently have 3 Servers in an Server 2012 R2 RDS Farm with the following roles on them:
Server1
RD Gateway
RD Connection Broker
RD Web Access
Server 2
Session Host
Server 3
Session Host
When users try to connect externally they sometimes receive the message "RD Gateway Server Unavailable". If they try a couple more times it eventually lets them connect, and then all is well.
What could be causing this?

When using explorer in RD Web Services not getting a prompt when deleting files off a share
Hi guys,
When using explorer in RD Web Services I'm not getting a prompt when deleting files off a DFS share.
However when I log into the server in question using username /admin I do get the prompt.
Would any one know how this could be fixed? Just seems to be through the RD Web App explorer.
Any clues would be much appreciated.

RemoteApps and security
Hi
I'm doing my first time setup (testing) of RDS and remoteapps. I'm using a Windows Server 2012R2 to deploy them using standard deployment. My setup includes Session Host, Connection Broker and Web Access on same server, and still have to configure gateway and license server.
I've installed several apps in the server and created a Collection with them. Granted permissions to all domain users to the collection. Accessed it using rdweb, downloaded the rdp file for one of them, and successfully connected to the remoteApp.
Then, I've modified the user group for that collection, REMOVING domain users and adding domain admins instead. Accessing through rdweb now shows an empty collection (as expected), but if I double click the RDP previously downloaded and use my domain user account, it still runs the application.
How can I prevent the application to be started by an unauthorized user that owns an rdp file for that remoteapp?
Thanks!

The request cannot be processed because a recreate job is already running or is scheduled to run in this collection
I have a clustered environment with three servers supporting Hyper-V 2012R2 for VDI's running windows 8.1. I have the environment in production and running just fine! There is one virtual server for connection broker, and another for web access.
I have tried relentlessly to update / recreate the base image to update my VDI's without success due to an error shown below.
"The request cannot be processed because a recreate job is already running or is scheduled to run in this collection"
I have successfully updated the base image twice before without issues. The problem seemed to have stemmed from deleting one of the VDI's and now the job is stuck? Even though I can create a "job" to successfully remove one of the VDI's, I cannot create a VDI or schedule a recreation without getting this error.
I have used PowerShell to check for Jobs running or failed etc. But NO jobs are running or have failed. I have rebooted all the servers without any success of being able to "release" this mystery job, and now my environment cannot do anything but run the VDI's.
Please help?
Thanks

Mac OS RDP client cannot connect with RDP Gateway
HI,
I've set up an RDP gateway and can connect to hosts behind the gateway when I use a Windows machine (mstsc.exe or the Remote Desktop Connection Manager) and specify the gateway.
The gateway is running Windows Server 2012 R2.
I am attempting the same with a Mac machine running the Microsoft RDP app and keep getting a "connection reset by peer" message as soon as I hit connect. Same configuration as the windows machine -- rdp gateway specified along with the internal server name and user names.
I'm wondering if this is a known issue or common problem? I've done some searching and haven't turned anything up. RDP and Apple machines are not my specialty so please forgive me if this information is easily available.
Thank you,
Jason

Users not showing in Terminal Server Under Remote desktop services manager and Task Manager
Hi All,
I have a problem here in Terminal Server. I can not see the users logged in to Server but i know users are accessing the files and currently working.
1. From the Task Manager-- Show processes from all users displayed all the processes accessing by users.
2. From the Task Manager-- From Users Tab--No users list at all
3. From the Command Prompt- Query users-- No information
4. From the Remote desktop services Manager-- used with IP/Host name-- Still can not see the users list and processes. So i can not kill the session if needed.
Enviroment:
TS CALS 20 currently accessing 15 users
VM-WARE GUEST: 2008 RS Terminal Services/Remote Desktop services installed
Windows up to date-- Just updated last month
Problem is here for long time. Just couldn't find the time to trouble shoot.

Force "I am using a private computer..." option to be ticked
Hello.
I have built a Remote Desktop Services environment on Windows 2012 R2 servers. It all works perfectly but I'd like to force the "I am using a private computer..." option to be checked when people open the "Connect to a remote PC" page (/en-us/Desktops.aspx). I have read various blogs and articles, many suggestion the same or similar approaches, but for me the option is never checked by default. I have:
1. Changed document.getElementById("rdoPblc").checked tofalse in webscripts-domain.js
2. Set public bool bPrivateMode to true in Desktops.aspx
Is there anything else I need to do? Am I missing something simple? I have tried running IISRESET and also restarting the server hosting the Web Access role. The option is always ticked on the Default.aspx page (RemoteApp) but never on the Desktops.aspx page.
Thanks in advance.

Remote Desktop RDWeb Session Caching?
Hello,
I have an unusual issue. We are running Dynamics GP as a RemoteAPP. Our RD environment is server 2012 R2 and the client machine is Windows 7 64bit.
We run GP in two environments, a test and a production. I created two collection groups to achieve this.
1. GP
2. GPTest
When we open GP production from the RemoteApp shortcut (RDWeb, and start Menu Shortcut) it works perfectly fine every time. When we try Test it opens correctly the fist time, but the when we close the application the and open it a second time it opens a session in the GP Production collection group.
I can't seem to find anything in regards to caching this kind of connection and it seems very odd. Has anyone heard of this happening?

Client unable to login to some terminal server ?
Hi All
Can anyone please assist me with the issue that is occuring in my environment ?
Basically, I've got 60+ Windows Server 2008 R2 configured as RDSH (TS) and then I'm using Riverbed/Brocade Steel App 3rd party load balancer to distribute the load of the user when accessing TS-FARM1.domain.com.au in the RDP application.
Somehow some of the users unable to access it using the Virtual Cluster Name due to some servers giving the following error:
But if I ask them to type in TS57 or TS32 randomly, it works so I guess there is something making it corrupted to some particular TS.
ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

RD Gateway not working externally
Hi,
I have a single server deployment of Server 2012 R2 Remote Desktop Services. It works fine internally using both RDWeb and the RD Client with the gateway set, but connecting externally gives me the following error:
"Your computer can't connect to the remote computer because the remote Desktop Gateway server is temporarily unavailable. Try reconnecting later or contact your network administrator for assistance"
The following steps have already been done:
Set-RDSessionCollectionConfiguration –CollectionName QuickSessionCollection -CustomRdpProperty “use redirection server name:i:1 `n alternate full address:s:remote.domain.com”
Set-RDPublishedName.ps1 "remote.domain.com"
In Application Settings for RDWeb\Pages I have set DefaultTSGateway to remote.domain.com
remote.domain.com has been added to the RD RAP.
Internal and public DNS records for remote.domain.com
A publically signed wildcard certificate is in use (Internal domain is corp.domain.com so I am using an alias to make the wildcard *.domain.com cert valid).
I can hit https://remote.domain.com/rpc and get prompted for authentication and then get a blank page.
The only error I can see in the logs is this in the system log:
"The program lsass.exe, with the assigned process ID 760, could not authenticate locally by using the target name TERMSRV/remote.domain.com. The target name used is not valid. A target name should refer to one of the local computer names, for example,
the DNS host name.
Try a different target name."
The server is sitting in AWS and remote.domain.com publically is a CNAME for the AWS LoadBalancer URL.
Any suggestions on what else I can look at?
Cheers,
James

RDS Black Screen and Disconnect
I have a virtual server running Server 2012 R2. It had been running RDS without any issues. All of a sudden, we can no longer Remote Desktop into it. We initiate the connection, are prompted for credentials. The Window comes up like it connects, but what should be the desktop is totally black. It stays like this for about 20 seconds, then the window closes. Looking at the event log, it seems like Event ID 1306, 1296, and 802 are generated. 1306 - Remote Desktop Connection Broker Client failed to redirect the user Error: NULL 1296 - Remote Desktop Connection Broker Client failed while getting redirection packet from Connection Broker. User: Error: Element not found. 802 - RD Connection Broker failed to process the connection request for user. Error: Element not found.
Can anyone please give me some guidance on what could be causing this issue? This happens when you have the RDS Role Setup and when you remove the role from the server. We can connect into the Host Server without any issues, it is just this Virtual Server that is a problem.

RDS Server 2012 R2 RDWeb RDGateway DMZ setup
So I have googled my way again (did the same about a year ago) and haven't found any updated information regarding the possibility of setting up RDS 2012 R2 services with the RDGateway/RDWeb access role/server located in a DMZ. All the information regarding setup of RDS seems to point to Windows Server 2008, with most people citing that this information still applies to Server 2012 R2. I am speaking particurlaly about this Remote Desktop Services Blog post (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rds/archive/2009/07/31/rd-gateway-deployment-in-a-perimeter-network-firewall-rules.aspx). This post talks about three sections with a DMZ (3.1,.3.2 and 3.3).
The way I read 3.1 is that it is talking about the server in the DMZ being domain joined to the internal corp domain and then having open ports back to the DCs, Other RDS servers and resources. In practical terms I cant see the point of having this server in the DMZ in this case.
The second and third scenarios deal with trusts between the domain in the DMZ and the internal corp domain. I currently am using the 3.3 scenario with a RODC and extended corp trust, but have been running into issues with the RODC. There is nothing wrong with the function of it, but the practice of using a RODC for the RDSweb/RDGateway authentication in the DMZ does not allow for offsite users to change their password when it is required. I have about 20 users who are now exclusively remote in operation and this is presenting a problem without allowing a way for them to correct it themselves.
The scenario for 3.2 deals with what I believe would be a solution for my problem. In my thinking, the trust would allow the users to update their passwords (as would scenario 3.1 but I would fail a security audit if I allowed those ports required to be open). I have been setting up scenario 3.2 and have been running into all kinds of problems. The problems seem to be specific to Server 2012 R2 RDS setup as the setup of RDS is expecting to have unencumbered normal domain access to all the servers involved when establishing the roles. I currently have things (for testing) as open as they could in this scenario, full two way trust between the two domains (forest-wide authentication), all ports open between the server in the DMZ and it's RDS role counterparts on the internal domain. In this configuration it succeeds installing the RDWeb and RDGateway roles. When trying to install the roles with a one way trust, the setup process kept failing as it wants to add the computer account (of the DMZ server it cant see in this one way trust scenario) to a local group on the connection broker server.
What I am curious to know is -
-Will having a trust in place allow users to change their password on RDWeb? I assume that the DMZ DC just acts as a proxy to the internal DCs if it does.
-Has anyone actually been able to setup a one way trust with Server 2012 R2 RDS with the RDWeb/RDGateway server in the DMZ? I can start to work backwards from where I have things configured now and try to get this to work with a one way trust, but if anyone knows why it is not possible it would save me a lot of time.
-If this scenario with a one way trust isnt possible, is there any way of using a two way trust with selective authentication to further reduce the risks of that trust (only including computer accounts, user accounts etc that need to be included for the RDS function)?
Thanks,
Brian

Public computer on RD CAP
Good morning,
I like to know how to configure RD CAP when i am utilizing RD Gateway Server2012r2 and a public computer. I configured port forwarding 3389 on the two routers that connect client and server, but in the step of configuring RD CAP I dont know how do it for a public computer who will connect to the server. The examples that I see to configure the remote client in the same group of users of server´s domain.
For example the public computer has the following characteristics:
Hostname: “AS”
User: “CQ1505”, Password: without password and Privilegies: Administrator.
How do I configure RD CAP y RD RAP on the server?
Is there a web link about it?
Thank for the attention.
