upd

$

Dear reader,

I'm having a strange issue with upd.

I have a top level forest domain.com and two child domain cust.domain.com and res.domain.com.

In the cust.domain.com reside the rds servers session broker and gateway. In the res domain are the fileservers.

At the moment i have a 2008r2 machine in the res domain that holds the upd's for the session collections that reside in the cust domain.

I have created a 2012r2 server for the upd's because of the upd locking issue on 2008r2. The new 2012r2 upd machine resides in the res domain.

The session collection is unable to create the template vhd, because of permissions issue. Even if i set everyone full control on ntfs and upd share. For testing purposes i have moved the new upd server from res domain to cust domain. Created a new share with default rights and the template vhd gets created immediately.

What am I missing here?

 Best regards,

Ruud Boersma

Terminal Server windows 2012 R2 does not render Desktop in Portrait if width

$

Hello

we are using Windows Enbedded Handheld 6.5.3 (with 240x320, 480x600 and 480x800 displays) Remote Desktop Mobile (RDM) to connect to Terminal Services on a Windows 2012 R2 server. If using RDM option "Fit remote desktop to screen" and starting a new session, the Start screen (Metro UI) is shown. Now starting a Desktop app like Control Panel or "This PC", the screen changes and only an empty background is shown. The Server renders the same, if set to start sessions in Desktop Mode.

If clicking or tapping the empty background the Start screen is shown again. The Terminla Server just does not render the desktop scren, the Desktop apps are started but not shown.

The same (empty background) happens if starting a new Remote Desktop Client session from a Windows 7 x64 or Windows 8.1 with the resolution set to 480x640 or 480x800 (width and height settings the RDP file). First I thought this is a general 'portrait' resolution issue, but the new session works correctly for 600x800.

I also tried Windows Phone 8.1 Remote Desktop and it does connect and render but always in landscape mode and I do not see an option to chamge the resolution used.

Is there any minimum limitation for portrait screens with Terminal Server of windows 2012 server? How can I workaround this, we need full screen display on the mobile devices.

Thanks for help

Licensing Diagnosis Provide Credentials Account Times Out

$
0
0

Have licensing server on domainA and a TS on domainB (both 2008 r2). On domainA I created a domain user account and added that user account to the local admin group on the licensing server.

On the RD server I enter in the creds in Provide Credentials. It works just fine. Shows available count (user mode) etc.

The issue though is that after some period of time the Summary information will show Credentials "Not Available". If I click Provide Credentials it will show domainA\user and the correct password and if I click OK it will reconnect fine.

Cant figure out why it does this? Is there something (GPO, reg change or something I can do to stop it so it stays connected) ?  Is there a command line I can run that I can script and schedule to basically periodically add the username and password to keep it connected?

Thx!


Wyse thin client will not connect to term server 2008 but WILL connect to any regular server 2008.

I have 2 identical HP Proliant servers.   Both have the same version of Server 2008 r2. One is running Remote Desktop Services (terminal server) and the Other is not.

The one with Remote desktop services will not connect to certain thin clinets.   The other appears more promiscuous and will handshake and connect with any of them.

I have done the License Server trick with the install by Web, and remove and reinstall and that got SOME of the thin clients to work, but there are 5 others that are remaining stubborn.

Why would Remote Desktop block a Wyse Thin Client when standard server will accept it?   If the Firmware on the Thin Client was out of date, it would not be connecting with ANY Server 2008 r2, but it is.   ?!?

At a total loss for ideas on this one...

SSO for RDWeb Hyper-V 2012 R2 and Windows 7 VMs from ThinPC Win7

$

Hi,
 I have been having issue with SSO for RDweb app. Using Hyper-V Server 2012 with VMs (Pooled and Personal) Win7 64bit. Remote Client has ThinPC Windows 7 with RDP 8.1.
 Ideally once user logs into ThinPC , IE opens up to rdweb link. Under RemoteApp and Desktop, there are 2 icons that said Pooled VM and Personal VM. A user clicks on Personal and it should automatically rdp to the Win7 64bit VM without any credentials.
 Everything works, until it gets to the Win7 64bit VM, user must enter their password which I do not want. It should use the Windows Authentication password when she logs in first time for ThinPC (domain joined).
 I have tried everything, Delegation Credentials, IE Trusted Site  Termsrv/*domain.com. But once user clicks on the Personal or Pool VM, it gets to the VM and ask for password.
 Please advise. Do you do support?
Thanks

Can't add existing VM to RDS Collection (Server 2012)

$

I have a Hyper-v server running Windows server 2012.  This server has the RD Virtualization Host role added (for remoteFX)

I have a VM running Server 2012 with RDS gateway/broker/web access/Licensing.

I can connect to my web interface/gateway and I can see a collection I created, when I try to connect to it, it errors because I don't have any VM's added to my collection (which brings me to my issue)

I created a Personal, unmanaged collection.  I wanted to add an existing Windows 8 RTM VM that I had created previously and assign it to myself.

But when I try to add it (or any other VM on the Hyper-v box) I get an error that I couldn't add the VM, but there is no reason why, no errors in the RDS event logs or system/app event logs.

Ideas?

Thanks


WIndows 2012 R2 Remot4e Desktop Service multiple host question

$

Hello everyone, I have a question that is probably pretty easy for someone.

I just built a RDS Enviroment that has:

2 RD Session Host

1 Broker server that also has the Gateway, Web Access and RD Licensing

Well I found out that the software that I want to Publish the remote app for doesn't support Remote App so we are just going to have the user Remote into the server.

My question is how do they Remote into the host in a load balance system?

If they RDP into 1 host, I will see it load balance into the other host sometimes.  But what if I distribute a IP for everyone to use and that one Host goes down and they wont be able to use RDP for the load balance to kick in?

I am missing something here......  Its like I need to setup a round robin DNS or something?

I don't understand what/where someone needs to go to access my load balanced host to RDP into the system...

Thank you.

We need to assign GPU to VMs on a win2012 Hyper-V server but getting message "The RD Virtualization Host role serivce is not installed" when opening Pyhsical GPU in Hyper-V Settings. Our hyper-v server is not a remote desktop services server. How can we assign GPU to VMs without remote desktop services?

Thanks.

Hi Everyone. We are having issues in the Domain controller having Windows Server 2012 R2 in Virtual Machine that it allows domain users to login to the DC Remotely with admin rights. We already enabled default group policy on User Rights Management that allow Remote only for domain admins. we did not enable deny access, since the new user has to be added on every creation of new user. We also do not want to use distribution group to deny it. is there any way to deny them remote access to DC?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi, is it possible to to publish RDGW from behind a WAP? I'm guessing yes, bot not with pre authentication in the wap? Please note I'm not interested in publishing RDWA. I just want my internet clients to be able to reach my RDGW using RDP over HTTPS.

Another 2008 R2 SSO question

$

Hi,

I have an all-in-one RD server with all roles installed and domain-joined. I have followed every article, forum post and topic I can find relating to SSO but it's not working for me. I only have a need to get SSO working externally from non-domain joined Windows computers.

The current issue is...when visiting london.domain.co.uk user sees the login web page, and enters their login (in email address format) and current password. Remote App page then loads, showing all the application icons. User clicks an icon. First box to pop up is "make sure you trust the publisher...", user clicks 'Connect'. The next box is a login box asking for username and password, the message on the box is "Enter your credentials. These credentials will be used to connect to ts1.domain.co.uk". 

On attempting the above from another computer, I get a slightly different message "The credentials that were used to connect to ts1.domain.co.uk did not work. Please enter new credentials." Also shows "The logon attempt failed".

If I manually enter my username and password the app loads as expected. I want to avoid this 2nd login.

When I click "Remote Desktop Web Access Configuration" and login, on the configuration tab, I have set
One or more RemoteApp sources = selected
source name: ts1.domain.co.uk

internal FQDN: ts1.domain.co.uk
external FQDN: london.domain.co.uk

I have GoDaddy certificate for london.domain.co.uk, which is bound in IIS to Default Web Site\RDWeb. The same certificate is also installed in Certificates\Local Computer\Trusted Root Certification Authorities

IIS authentication settings are

Default web site = anonymous authentication is enabled, all other disabled
Default web site\RDweb = anonymous authentication is enabled, all others disabled
Default web site\Rpc = Basic authentication + Windows authentication is enabled, all others disabled

RD Session Host Configuration settings are

"General" tab

Security layer = SSL (TLS 1.0)
NLA = enabled
Certificiate = london.domain.co.uk

"Log on Settings" tab

Use client-provided log on information

RemoteApp Manager settings are

"RD Session Host Server" tab

server name: london.domain.co.uk

"RD Gateway" tab

Do not use an RD Gateway

"Digital Signature" tab

sign with a digital signature = ticked (cert used is london.domain.co.uk)

"Custom RDP Settings" tab

authentication level:i:0
enablecredsspsupport:i:1

I have the computer account in the local TS Web Access Computers Group.

Where am I going wrong?

Help with RDP'ng, using Smart Card Authentication to another domain on a different network.

We use smart card authentication for everything when we can.

We have two domains.    
Domain A is the main one.   Than Domain B is setup on another network.

I can RDP into Domain A using Smart card or user logins.

Domain B will only allow me to RDP with user name.

So I'm not sure what we need to do to get the Smart Card to work across to the other domain.

Windows Server 2012 - Having multiple users directly RDP into RDS server without using remoteapps or rds config file.

$
0
0

I have set up a 2012 server.  I added all the roles for RDS.  Configured the host server, gateway, and such. Session based.  We have about 500 users that remote into this one machine.  The problem is 80% of the users use thin clients and do not have access to web browsers to access remote apps.  So they have to remote directly into the server using the standard rdp.  We have 2 issues now.

1) We need to create a farm to load balance these users because 1 server is not enough.

2)  It doesn't seem like the rds is woking as it should being that all the users are rdping into the server directly. I don't see any active connections under server manager -> Remote desktop services -> collections.  Im guessing because they directly remote in and not through apps.

Am I able to set up a farm with load balancing and have the users still connect this way?

I am fairly new to all of this.

How to get information of which remote app is beign accessed in a RDP session

$

Suppose I have published remote app on a server, is there a way to know which user is using the remote app??

I tried to check with power shell , but found the Cmdlets for remote desktop, like to find the users who are currently connected or performing remote desktop, similarly do we have something for Remote apps? as even if I open 2 different remote apps from a pc they are maintained in 1 session. Do we have a way to maintain the Remote app launches from 1 pc  in different sessions??

Waiting for a reply on this.

Problem with RDP sessions

$

I've been running VMWare Virtual machines for years but with the advent of windows 10 I thought I'd bite the bullet and go Hyper-V. So I'm in the process of converting my virtual machines to Hyper-V. All gone very well, but for a problem on one of my VM's. The host system is windows 10 and the Guest is server 2008. The development software that is installed on the guest needs me to login to the console otherwise it cant see the license, but I also need the large screen size (1920x1080) that I can get using terminal services. The license I have only licenses the console to use the development software. So from the guest I type:

mstsc /VXXX.XXX.XXX.XXX /admin

Which should take me to the console of the virtual machine (It does on my older server 2003 VMs anyway)

Instead it seems to take me to a new session. In this case session 3 and the development software will no longer accept the development license.

Is there any way I can force mstsc to go to the console and not create a new session.

RD Licensing Server not found, cannot uninstall

RD Licensing Diagnoser reports it cannot find the License server.

 I've tried to remove the RD Licensing Server (to Re-Add it), and get the error: "Could not remove the configuration. Object reference not set to an instance of an object"  

Adding and removing the server roles does not seem to help. RD Per User Cals activated in user mode were not being picked up. tried in per device mode, still no go.

Any suggestions on what to try next?
