Cannot connect to Domain\administrator from ny RDC after assigning an active directory domain to my server

hi, I'm using windows server 2012 R2 and I was Just wondering how to make the Remote Desktop enable connection through domain\administrator before actually creating the domain... In other words, I wanted to create an Active Directory Domain User and connect
to the server from the RDP. The problem is that I can only connect through the RDP considering that I'm using Windows Azure, so the physical server isn't actually sitting on my desk... Anyway when I create an AD DS the system automatically reboots and I'm
not able to connect to it anymore, so all I need to do right now is enable somehow the Remote Desktop Services to connect through "Domain\Administrator" before I actually create the AD DS and assign it to my server so that when the system reboots
and I open the RDP I can connect to the server.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
As per your comment, it seems that you are managing the server with .RDP file. I can suggest you to run
"Remote Desktop Connection Manager” for maintaining server. With that you can specify the credential for domain\administrator and when you setup the AD DS, after that you can open the connection through domain\administrator and not as local user.
Hope it helps!
Thanks,
Dharmesh

Cannot connect to the Administration server?

I just installed Hyperion 11.1.2 in Windows 2008, and I'm sure the essbase server is started because I can connect by MaxL, and I can see the Administration server service is started because I can see it in the service list. But When I want to login ADM, error messageL "Cannot connect to the Administration server", please advise?

HT3529 cannot connect to itunes store from iphone error message

cannot connect to itunes store from iphone error message

More than likely its your router. You need to make sure that the router's firewall, if enabled(most are by default), permits connection to these domains as trusted:
* itunes.apple.com
* ax.itunes.apple.com
* albert.apple.com
* gs.apple.com

Cannot connect to itunes store from iphone4

I cannot connect to itunes store from my iphone 4. v4.2.10. It use to work and now I keep getting this error, any suggestions.

You don't have another device like a mac book or a mac sitting close to it while you do this do you? When I try to use the iPad next to a Powerbook 800 while both have to connect to the wireless in my house, usually the iPad loses and gets incomplete connections. I have to move about 10 feet away from the other device.

Windows 8.1 Pro Cannot Connect to Domain Controllers through Wi-Fi

I have a domain joined Surface 2 Pro running 8.1 Pro Update that is suddenly unable to connect to the domain controllers on the local network. The machine is fully patched. I'm guessing that it is some network level security issue because the wi-fi is working:
It has no trouble connecting to my Wi-Fi hotspot on my phone.
It has no trouble connecting to other Wi-Fi at coffee shops etc.
It is connecting to my home Wi-Fi and gets an address from DHCP on the domain controllers, but can't ping the DCs, access the DCs through remote desktop even using their IP address.
It can ping the router and ping systems on the internet using their IP address rather than hostname.
I can fully access internet systems if I point it at DNS on the router but still cannot access internal systems by name or IP address.
The Wi-Fi network shows as a public network rather than a domain.
It will work fine when it is docked and using the dock's ethernet adapter.
If I use VPN to loop back through my router then I am able to fully access local systems.
None of the other systems on the network are experiencing the same issue.
I have tried the following which didn't work:
Switched off the Windows Firewall on the Windows 8.1 system and a domain controller.
Network Troubleshooting - which told me that the network seems OK but the DNS servers are not responding.
Uninstalling the Wi-Fi device and restarting the system to re-install it.
Resetting TCP/IP.
I am not aware of any changes, but the system did install System Hardware Update 8/07/2014 (again!) but I can't recall if that was when the problem started or was just a coincidence.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Richard

Hi Richard,
Apologize for my slow understanding.
I thought as it could obtain IP address from the DC, it should have connections between them.
For the current situation, you may take a try to disable the firewall on the DC, then check the port that used by AD environment is all available,
Active Directory and Active Directory Domain Services Port Requirements, you could take use of this tool:
PortQryUI - User Interface for the PortQry Command Line Port Scanner
If all available and issue still insists, then issue here seems to be restricted with the wireless router. You may try to contact the router side and see if they could offer any further useful information regarding this situation.

Cannot Connect to Domain Through Wireless Connection

Hello TechNet Gurus,
As the title suggests, I am having issues connecting to my domain through a wireless connection. I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 (Data Center and Enterprise) to build my understanding of server administration to supplement my undergraduate
coursework (B.S. Computer Engineering & Cyber Security minor). So far I have a working domain controller attached to a switch that I re-purposed from an old WRT54G Linksys router. In turn, the switch is attached to a WRT54GS Linksys router.
When connected through physical media, the domain controller works as expected. I can connect to the domain from two personal laptops running Windows 7 Professional and from two virtual environments running Windows 7 Enterprise. Through these connections, I
can divvy out group policy, access network drives, and other services successfully. However, I attempted to connect wireless, and when I do, I continually get an error indicating that my username/password is incorrect. I carefully re-input the login information
(over-and-over), and I even recreated the user/computer objects. All to no avail.
After a couple of days of research between classes, homework, and work, I found some promising tips:
Added the following entry to the registry for the local machine: %comspec% /c netsh wlan connect name="JBnetwork"
Added the following local group policy (using gpedit.msc): Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative templates\System\Logon\Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon
Unfortunately, the above tips have not resolved the issue. From what I understand, the issue stems from the order that the wireless software and domain authenticate. I have also read that this may purely be a networking issue that is not directly related
to Active Directory or Windows 7 configurations. Whatever the situation is, this has me completely stumped and I could use some expert advice.
This is my ipconfig, for the reference:

@Zanderol24,
Thanks for following up with me. I completely forgot about this post because I was able to figure out a solution by poking around in Group Policy.
The issue was a pretty simple fix. I tweaked the wireless policy a bit: Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Wireless Network (IEEE 802.11) Policies.
Thanks again!

Cannot connect to Domain

Hello,
We are trying to connect to Domain, Domain name is set up on the server.
We ping the IP and its working, but when we try to join the domain the following errors pop up
An Active Directory Domain Controller (AD DC) for the domain "proximity" could not be contacted. Ensure that the domain name is typed correctly.
Any idea please?

If you have the ldp.exe tool installed on the device you can query ports 389 & 3268 to make sure they are open and able to reach the DC. If you have a DHCP server in this setup bypass it and try using a PC to DC join (remove all possible issues) DNS
can be an issue but using NSLOOKUP can quickly remove that from the equation. Make sure you have the required AD ports open between point A and B (Link for that below) Also If you have IPSEC in your enviroment this can be an issue. Needless to say it can be
a lot of things but if you need a simple method to start id do this:
Ensure all required AD ports are open and listening.
Ensure all required services (netlogon, task scheduler, etc) are enabled and the time is properly set on the device.
Ensure my NIC settings are configured correctly & I can resolve DNS using NSLOOKUP and typing the FQDN for the domain.
Ensure my IPSEC, firewall, etc is configured as needed.

Doublechecking one odd thing from the diagnostics.
Current user is not an administrator.
Is that true? Or does your Windows user acount have full admin rights?
If you do actually have an administrative account, the false result in the iTunes diagnostics can sometimes indicate idiosyncratic permissions trouble that has been known to interfere with Store connections.
Let's try an experiment. I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
Quit iTunes first.
In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
Open the "Program files (x86)" folder.
Open the "iTunes" folder.
Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
Run your network connectivity tests again. Do they now say "Current user isan administrator"? If so, do you also now get a proper Store connection?

Cannot connect to L2TP VPN from iOS devices

This weekend I decided to perform a hard drive upgrade on my little 2009 Mac mini that I run as a homespun server as a hobby. In the process, I thought it would be worthwhile to flatten the whole thing and start again from fresh.
However, in doing so, I no longer seem to be able to connect to it's VPN from an iOS device. Both my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.3) and iPad 3rd Gen (iOS 8.1.3) cannot connect to the VPN server over an L2TP connection – either on my local network or over 3G, even if the local IP is provided instead of a host name.
Interestingly though, my MacBook Pro has no issues connecting over L2TP when tethered to my iPhone's 4G. It can dial back home and authenticate successfully.
The settings are exactly the same on both as both are governed under a single profile containing the VPN settings and login details.
It used to work before the hard drive upgrade, but can't remember the last time I used VPN on my iPhone. Just wondering if this is a bug in iOS 8.1.x?
iOS reports "The L2TP-VPN server did not respond". Additionally, there is absolutely nothing in the Server's console for VPN or 'racoon'. In the past when I've had issues, the connect is made but doesn't authenticate or some such. This just doesn't get to the server in any way shape or form.
Any ideas?

I believe the problem is in iOS, as I am experiencing the same issue.
I have a Yosemite Server running L2TP VPN server and my Mac connects flawless, while neither the iPhone nor the iPad (both 8.2) are able to connect.
The error is the same "The L2TP-VPN server did not respond" and by looking at the server's log it seems iOS didn't even try to connect.
I have tried changing the server address in iOS with the corresponding IP, but the results it's the same.
Maybe a network setting reset?
