i have three servers applied RD session broker, all three servers have windows server 2008 R2 installed, and all are members of farm (FARM-B) i want a specific user or security group to override the redirection and login to a specific server in that farm


multimon on admin user not on regular user.

Hi,

I have 3 Server 2008 R2 servers in a TS farm. If I connect via RDP using my admin user i can use all 3 screen's.

If I connect via my regular user (from the same laptop) I can only use 1 screen.

I have fine combed all the policy's to check if there is a "Limit number of monitors" policy running but I cannot find one.

I have also checked that there is no limitations on the Broaker.

Any tips on what else i can check? It feels like a policy thing since I can connect with 3 monitors with my admin user.

Windows Server 2012 - RDS RemoteApps and PCI Compliance

$
0
0

I have a client that is currently failing there PCI scan due to TLS 1.0

I've modified the registry to remove TLS 1.0 and 1.1 and confirmed TLS 1.2 is there.

Client has Windows 7 computer(s)

I've enabled logging so i can see how clients are connecting.

There appears to be a mix of TLS 1.0 and SSL3, however if i connect it reports TLS 1.2

The RDS Collection is set to TLS 1.0 (there is some bug posted a while back that said it doesn't display the right version!)

In desparation i did try RDS SECURITY but the Win7 clients couldn't launch a RemoteApp and evet log on the server ID:5605 saying to change auth to Pkt_Privacy. and because it was the working day i had to revert back to TLS 1.0

The way i see it, even if i can get the Win7 clients to connect at TLS 1.2, the PCI Scan will still fail !!

This must be an issues many are facing with TLS 1.2 and PCI but can't find any answers, only questions.

If i've missed any vital info here then please ask and i'll try to answer ASAP

Thanks in advance :)

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.

Steps to remove RD Gateway?

$
0
0

We have major issues with our Server 2012 RDS farm. We have had a case open with Microsoft Support for months and they cannot resolve the issues.

We have the Remote Desktop Gateway role configured, but I don't think it is needed. All users connect to the RD Collection by name "RDS" - via LAN or VPN.

We are trying to simplify our configuration and eliminate possible cause of all the issues.

What are the steps to remove the Remote Desktop Gateway from our environment and still have everything operate correctly?

Here are the Servers and Roles:

TS01 = RD Session Host

TS03 = RD Session Host, Gateway, Connection Broker and Web Access (currently not allowing Session Host connections)

TS04 = RD Session Host

TS05 = RD Session Host

App01 = RD Licensing Host

FS01 = UPD Shares


Terminal services licensing

I have a server that has 7 per user CALs for terminal services that supports itself.  I have now purchased an additional 25 per device CALs that have been applied to the licensing server.

What I an trying to accomplish is to add two additional application servers that will serve some point of sale software through a full desktop experience.

My question is, what is the proper configuration for allowing those 25 device CALs to be split between the two application servers with 13 on one and 12 on the other, while still allowing the current 7 per user CALs to remain active on the the licensing server which also provides the same application?

I currently have the RD Session Host Configuration tool pointed at the licensing server and can see all of the 25 available licenses.  This host will have 13 RDP sessions and my second server with the RD Session Host Configuration tool pointed at the licensing server seeing all 25 will have 12 users that need to connect.  Is this the proper configuration?

Can you direct me to a possible solution to make a 2012 pool of servers?
We have 20 identical 2012 servers that my students use in class.
I will like to assign them from a Pool and not on on one basis.
(we cannot use win7, 8 , or 10. Only 2012 for education purposes)

Server 2012 RDS - User Profile Disks - Errors during Logoff

$
0
0

I have set up a test Server 2012 RDS collection (Single Server for now) and implemented User Profile disks.

I have two problems.

First: My generic test user can connect and does successfully use the user profile disk as expected. However, atlogoff, the system event log contains these errors:


The error (NTFS 137) is: The default transaction resource manager on volume C:\Users\ts3.test encountered a non-retryable error and could not start.  The data contains the error code.

The warning (NTFS 50) that concerns me is:

It appears that the user profile disk is being "disabled" or "disconnected" before the profile data is completely written at logoff. What can I do to troubleshoot this?

Second:

Update: A post from Mike Connor on the following page: -LINK- solved the problem described below. 

My administrative user always logs on now with a temporary profile. At the beginning, the UPD was working and mounting. That stopped working. In attempting to troubleshoot, I logged the admin user off and deleted the UPD disk file from the share. I remember it working again after generating a new UPD disk file in the share. Soon, it quit working again. I deleted the UPD disk file again from the share and ever since, it has never regenerated a new UPD andalways logs on with a temporary profile.









Certficate warnings

$

Hi,

I've had some certificate warnings in the past and thought it was a good idea to fix it by assigning my public wildcard certificate to my internal RDSH servers.
as it turned out in this topic https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/6a70ed2e-46af-4891-92ff-c8bab6ec94a3/customrdpproperty-use-redirection-server-name?forum=winserverTS it wasn't that good idea.

So that was rolled back.

But now the certificate warnings are back.
'This certificate is not from a trusted authority'

When I take a look at the certificate that is linked to the RDP-TCP listener it was issued to server1.domain.local and issued by server1.domain.local.
We have an internal CA, but that is currently not set up to provide certificates automatically.

To get rid of these warnings I need to request a certificate from the CA and again change the certificate linked to the RDP-TCP listener. (http://www.vkernel.ro/blog/replace-the-default-self-signed-certificate-on-a-rd-session-host-server)

Or is there a better way?

shadowing a 2012 R2 TS session with multiple monitors ---- the desktop got squeezed --- it is hard to see

$

Hi Forum,

I have this issue for a while ( since windows 2012 / windows 2012 R2 remote desktop days).  

(Edit: I suddenly realized 2012 RDS does not allow shadowing, its 2012 R2 RDS I am talking about)

When I shadow a session the user client having multiple monitors, on my screen, the user's desktops were squeezed like 1/2 or 1/4 (if he has 4 monitors) to show on my screen.

(This question may have been asked many times, I didn't seem to see an answer)

that makes it really hard to work.

any tips to work around this issue? make it like 2003 TS days?

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers

Michael

Windows 10 VDI collection on Windows 2012 R2

Just a quick question about VDI collections on Windows 2012 R2 RDS. Are they still restricted to Windows 7 and Windows 8 or is it possible to run a Windows 10 collection now?

Obviously Windows 10 can run on Server 2016 but until this is fully released I have a few customers that have enquired about deploying Windows 10 from their current 2012 R2 environments.  

Thanks in advance.


Kind Regards

Win2008R2 SP1 Application crashes when enumerating DLL functions via tlbinf32.dll

$

Hi,

I need to investigate some IT environmental problems in our Terminal server environment. We ourself don't manage this, it's a contractor that deals with all of the IT stuff. It must be some influence from GPO or virus scanner etc, becasue the problem occurs also on a clean VM they made for testing purposes. Because that new VM still follows the rules of the managed environment I think this is a systematic problem and not a coding error - if I install Windows 2008R2 on my own test machine I don't see this problem.

The problem itself: 

in our "managed" productional environment we have an application we develop by ourself. The application has a Richtext editor that can help VB scripting by reading out the "public" functions from two DLL they come with  our applicaiton. The readout is done with the Tlbinf32.dll which is part of the operating system. By doing this the application crashes.

In an "unmanaged" test environment the problem doesn't occur, debugview and process monitor just stop, but don't show any particularities or even errors.

RDS Certificate name mis-match

$
0
0

I have a single server 2012 R2 set up to provide RDS services.  When logging into the server to use RemoteApps, I get the typical message about a mis-match certificate name.  Many articles on Google recommend changing the FQDN using Powershell:

Set-RDPublishedName "sample.domain.com"

I get a Powershell error message that the cmdlet RDPublishedName does not exist.  Seems strange since so many articles recommend this command.  Can anyone suggest what the problem is and a solution?

Thanks!

We're an MSP and want to manually manage RDWEBAccess.config for use with new Modern Remote Desktop client and it's webfeed. Our customers are not in our forest so the Broker service has not created a RDWEBAccess.config file.

Could someone share a copy of their RDWEBAccess.config so that I can manually edit it for my needs?

Thanks, Stu
