Configuring remote AX connected to relay AX

I am having problems connecting a remote base station to a relay base station. The relay base station seems to work as i see it in airport utility but - although it sees the remote base station connected to it (i can see it in wireless client chart) - the remote base station does not show up in airport utility. however, when i move near the remote base station, it seems to be set up correctly.
Does the remote base station need to have the address of the WDS main base station or of the relay base station in the WDS settings?
Do i need to add the remote to the list of wds clients of the main base station?

Okay so after a lot of reading on these discussion posts and the Internet, I have resolved my issue.
Like jdam, I have a Time Capsule connected to my Internet Cable Modem. My new home has speakers in every room so I wanted to stream via AirPlay from my iMac, MacBook Air, iPhone or iPad. My Sony receiver will not play to Zone B using a digital signal from the AppleTv HDMI, so I purchased the AirPort Express so I could connect the mini audio port the the receiver.
When I used the AirPort configuration utility, it assumed I wanted to extend my current network on my Time Capsule. This article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4587?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US states that "due to the overhead required for this configuration, you may expect AirPlay drop-outs such as intermittent loss of audio". Therefore the solution is to configure the AirPort Express to be a client of the Time Machine, not extend the wireless network.
In the same article it states, "AirPort Express used exclusively for AirPlay by setting it up in Client Mode.
Choose this configuration if the computer containing your iTunes library may be out of direct range of the AirPort Express, but is within range of the Wi-Fi network."
In the AirPort Utility select the Wireless tab and change the Network Mode from "Extend a wireless network" to "Join a wirelss network".
After the AirPort Express comes back online, I tested streaming from all of my devices and I no longer had stutter or drop outs when playing music.
I know jdam stated he had "Join a wireless network" selected but I also thought this is what the default setup did.

How to configure Remote desktop connection double sign-on?

All dear,
I need help. I install a terminal server 2012, but when I try to remote login, only once sign on. How can I to configure the server to double sign-on.
Thanks

If I understand you right you have custom credential provider on the server. In this case Microsoft says that it is impossible to overcome double sign-on, just search for the "RDC and Custom Credential Providers" on the Internet.

How to Configure Remote Connections To SQL Server 2008 R2 Express

Post written June 10, 2010 and pertains to:
SQL Server 2008 R2 Express on both my server and local machines: SQLX_SRV,
SQLX_LOC
SQL Server 2008 R2 Management Studio on both my server and local machines:
MS_SRV, MS_LOC
Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise installed on a Hyper-V VPS: WS
SQL Server Configuration Manager on both my server and local machines:
CMGR_SRV, CMGR_LOC
Server Manager: SMGR
I am connecting to my hosting server via Remote Desktop Connection: RDC
I installed SQLX_SRV and MS_SRV on my hosting server and SQLX_LOC and MS_LOC on my local development machine. I am able to use MS_LOC to connect to SQLX_LOC and to use MS_SRV to connect to SQLX_SRV. However I am not able to use MS_LOC to connect
with SQLX_SRV. Here's what I have done so far:
SMGR -> Configuration -> Windows Firewall to turn off the Windows Firewall for Domain, Private and Public profiles. Obviously I'll change this later, but until I can connect I want to remove as many variables as possible.
CMGR_SRV -> SQL Server Services to confirm that both SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) and SQL Server Browser services were running.
CMGR_SRV -> SQL Server Network Configuration -> Protocols for SQLEXPRESS to ENABLE the Shared Memory, Named Pipes, and TCP/IP protocols and DISABLE the deprecated VIA protocol.
CMGR_SRV -> SQL Server Network Configuration -> Protocols for SQLEXPRESS -> double click TCP/IP to open the TCP/IP properties dialogue. On the Protocol tab Enabled: Yes, Keep Alive: 30000, changed Listen All to No. I've tried it both
ways, but I've got six IP addresses on my server and I wanted to configure SQLEXPRESS to listen to only the first and primary IP. On the IP Addresses tab went to IPALL and cleared the TCP Dynamic Ports field and entered 1433 in the TCP Port field.
For my first and primary IP Address I made sure that Enabled was Yes, I cleared the TCP Dynamic Ports field, and entered 1433 in the TCP Port field. For all other IP Addresses Enabled was set to No and I cleared both the TCP Dynamic Ports and TCP Port
fields.
CMGR_SRV -> SQL Server Services -> SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) right click and Restart. This of course stopped and restarted my instance of SQLX_SRV enabling the TCP/IP configuration in the previous step to take effect.
On my server, SQLX_SRV is the only instance of SQL Server running and so it's easy to hard wire it to the default port 1433.
The instance name for both SQLX_SRV and SQLX_LOC is the default "SQLEXPRESS". My server machine name is "SERVER1" on the EnglishBrains.com domain. So the proper local name (local within the context of my remote server as connected via RDC) for
my instance of SQLX_SRV would be:
SERVER1\SQLEXPRESS
Note the use of a backslash NOT a forward slash.
Of course to connect remotely from my development machine, which is not on the same domain as my hosting server, I would need to specify the domain as well, so the SQL Server name becomes:
SERVER1.EnglishBrains.com\SQLEXPRESS
I must also use SQL Server Authentication. Before I can use such a remote connection, however, there are still several configuration steps required. So on my server (connected via RDC) I used MS_SRV to connect to SQLX_SRV using SERVER1\SQLEXPRESS
for the server name and Windows Authentication. Once connected I performed the following steps:
MS_SRV -> right click the connected parent SERVER1\SQLEXPRESS instance node at the top -> Properties -> Security -> Server authentication: select "SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode". This will enable connections using either type
of authentication.
Next, leaving the Server Properties dialogue open, Connections -> check "Allow remote connections to this server" box.
Click OK to save these changes and close the Server Properties dialogue.
MS_SRV -> Security -> right click Logins and select "New Login...", the Login - New dialogue opens.
On the General page Enter a name for your new login
Select SQL Server Authorization
Enter and confirm a password
Uncheck Enforce password expiration
Select the default Database and Language
On the ServerRoles page Public will be checked, also check SysAdmin. This is probably not a good idea and I'll uncheck this as soon as I can connect to the SQLX_SRV.
On the User Mapping page select the databases you want your new Login to access and enter the Default Schema of "dbo".
At the bottom of the User Mapping page you'll see the Database Roles table. Public will be selected by default. Also select db_Owner. Again this is probably not a good idea, and I'll refine this once I can connect.
On the Status page confirm that "Grant" is checked under "Permission to connect to database engine" and "Enable" is checked under "Login".
Click OK to save all changes and close the Login - New dialogue.
With these steps completed you should now be able to use MS_SRV to connect to SQLX_SRV using SQL Server Authentication by supplying the name and password for your new Login. I tried this and it worked fine. Next I tried to use this same login
remotely, that is I went to my local development machine and used MS_LOC to try and connect to SQLX_SRV by using
SERVER1.EnglishBrains.com\SQLEXPRESS
and opting for SQL Server Authentication and supplying the name and password of my new login.
THIS DID NOT WORK?? Instead I get the following error message:
Cannot connect to SERVER1.EnglishBrains.com\SQLEXPRESS.
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider:

If you follow the suggested help link, you are told:
The SQL Server client cannot connect to the server. This error could be caused by one of the following reasons:
A specified SQL Server instance name is not valid.
The TCP, or named pipes protocols are not enabled.
The firewall on the server has refused the connection.
The SQL Server Browser service (sqlbrowser) is not started.
WRONG on all 4 counts! The instance name IS valid. Both TCP/IP and Named Pipes protocols are enabled. The firewall has been shut down, so it is not relevant. Finally the SQL Server Browser IS started.
The next thing I tried was to circumvent discovery by the SQL Browser service by using the following syntax to specify the IP address and port directly when specifying the SQL Server name.
tcp:68.71.134.186,1433
Using this in the Server Name field I was able to use MS_SRV to successfully connect to SQLX_SRV (using SQL Server Authentication of course) with or without the SQL Browser service running.
However when I tried to connect from MS_LOC to SQLX_SRV using this same login (WITH SQL Browser service running just for good measure) it does not work?? I get the following error message:
Cannot connect to tcp:68.71.134.186,1433.
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider:

For help, click:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=10060&LinkId=20476
If you follow the help link you are told:
"The SQL Server client cannot connect to the server. This error could occur because either the firewall on the server has refused the connection or the server is not configured to accept remote connections."
However, the firewall has been shut down and the server HAS been configured to accept remote connections!
I confirmed that i could indeed Ping to 68.71.134.186 and running NetStat -a |find /i "listening" on the server shows that the server is indeed listening at 68.71.134.186 Port 1433 -- which is why I was able to connect to SQLX_SRV using MS_SRV with
tcp:68.71.134.186,1433 .
IN SUMMARY: Even though I can connect to my SQLEXPRESS instance multiple ways from the server itself, I cannot connect remotely from my development machine!
If anyone can help me figure out why I would be very, very grateful!

My two cents to help you out on c# code example to configure the remote sql server express.
Hope it helps. It works, but you have to be extra carefull to read it all and setup the server configuration and netsh commands; also the port fowarding on the router.

I have a time capsule connected directly to fiber connection. I have connected a windows server directly to TC and configured it for remote desktop connection. From my interanet I can access srvr but not from my home. What config I need on TC?

I have a time capsule directly connected to fibre optic point out. All pcs and macs are connected wirelessly to the internet. I have connected a windows server pc to TC. When configured for Remote desktop connection, I can access windows server from within interanet but don't know how to access it from internet. I guess I need to change some settings in TC to get some ip adress for the remote desktop connection from my home. Anyone who can help me out? Appreciate it.
Narmin

I am a little lost now.. I have read again your title and your first post.. and they seem inconsistent.
In the title you state.
From my interanet I can access srvr but not from my home.
Interanet is not a word I know.. I assumed intranet...are you talking about internet or intranet? And just to be clear say WAN or LAN.. !! Is your home part of the interanet??
In the first post you state,
I can access windows server from within interanet but don't know how to access it from internet.
Now this is more normal.. the issue is not in the home at all, it is accessible from there but fails from internet. If this is correct, then you can do a few obvious things to determine where the problem is.
But first I need to know are you actually testing from a different internet connection to your home lan.. you are not just trying the public IP from inside the LAN as that will fail due to the TC not doing NAT Loopback.
I am also assuming the TC is the only router in the network, and has the public IP on the WAN interface.
And I am also assuming you have turned on the ping responder and you can actually ping your public ip from the internet and get a response. This helps no end in figuring out where there are issues. Strange but I have no idea if there is a ping responder in the TC WAN so you might need to forward that as well. Also if you have a dynamic public ip address are you using dyndns or no-ip or some other service to connect.
1. Test bypassing the TC.. plug the internet connection straight into the windows server,, and test if you have access. If yes, the TC is the problem.. if not, your setup on the windows server is wrong.. look at firewall in particular.
2. Assuming from test 1 the TC is the problem, Post the screen shots of the port forwarding setup for us to look at.. that is by far the easiest way to check it out.
There are lots of references to port forwarding in the TC.. eg
http://must-know-mac.blogspot.com/2008/07/how-to-port-forward-time-capsule.html
The things that generally go wrong are firewall on the computer that is accepting the port.
The ISP doesn't allow connections on a particular port. (not likely in your case)
The router is behind another router.. double NAT will kill any port forward.
Upnp has already allocated a port.. not an issue as TC doesn't use upnp although a reboot of everything after you set port forwards is well worth it.. amazing how things don't stick properly without a reboot.
IP on the receiving device is not static and so changes.
Not enough or right type of ports are opened. This is always messier than it looks as one port is often not enough for two way communications.

Dual Remote VPN Connection

Hello Guys
i created three different Remote VPN connections with three different networks . i can make them one but for some reasons i don't mix all.
and iam using Cisco asa 5505 with Shrew Soft VPN software , so my problem is
- i connected Shrew soft remote vpn , if i try to connected another remote vpn connection this will not accept the second connection , so please can any one give me a remote vpn connection software that accepts more than one connection

Hi,
Since you mention the ASA and the VPN I presume you are trying to connect by VPN Client to the same ASA?
Why would you want to have several VPN client connections at the same time? (Though I think that isnt even possible)
What are you trying to accomplish by these 3 different VPN Client configurations configured on the same ASA?
Isnt it just possible to configure one VPN Client connection to the ASA that would handle all the traffic of these 3 VPN Client connections?

DBACockpit Configuration - Remote Database backup of Java Stack.

Hi All,
I am configuring remote database backup of my SAP Java stack system.
I have successfully connected the system in dbacockpit. I have gateway installed also on the remote host system. but Database scheduling on DB13 failed.
On the OS of CEN system, I can connect to the host system of the remote using the OPS$ logon and i.e
sqlplus /@SID as sysdba - (It connected, to confirm i querried the v$instance I was also able to shutdown the remote system)
E:\>sqlplus /@SID as sysdba

But when I ran the brtools to perform the backup I got this error.
"BR0301W SQL error -12560 at location BrDbConnect-2, SQL statement:

Hi Niyi,
This is a TNS error. The system is not able to connect TNS by using br*tools.
Firstly, check your environment variables. They should be as same as java system environmnt variables.
Secondly, check the link below;

You need to create a synonym and SAPUSER table for the gateway installation <sid>adm user on Java database. By doing so, br*tools will be able to connect to the java database.

Server 2012 R2 Remote Desktop Connection Broker

I have installed RDS on a server named PLUTO on which Windows 2012 R2 datacenter is in. There is a domain controller (domain name: AGROSY) running on a Linux server. We have used Samba 3.6.6 to control the file sharing system.
When I attempt to install RDS in Server Manager, it states as following: could not retrieve the deployment information from RD connection broker server pluto.AGROSY.
Then, I searched a lot of solutions, e.g. and tried as following:
Enter-PSSession -ComputerName pluto --> which works;
but Enter-PSSession -ComputerName pluto.AGROSY --> which gives the error message as: Enter-PSSession : Connecting to remote server pluto.AGROSY failed with the following error message : WinRM cannot process the request. The following
error with errorcode 0x80090311 occurred while using Kerberos authentication: There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request.
If I ping the pluto.AGROSY, it works as well.
I have no idea how it can be solved, please help me out. Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Thanks for your comment. Sorry for late reply.
Initially please enable the PowerShell remoting in your case.
Enable-PSRemoting
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh849694.aspx
For FQDN name, please see that RDCB is properly configured and also certificate which you have used for RDS environment must be trusted with its private key and must match the FQDN name of the server. Did you seen the certificate has been properly used and
configured. You can go through following article for certificate and also for configuring RDCB role.

Server 2012 RTM Remote Desktop Connection Broker Role Won't Install

Hey guys,
I have been searching for and trying fixes for this for 3 days, and I've gotten no where. Thanks in advance for trying to help me out.
Here's the situation:
I have a brand new installation of the Windows Server 2012 Datacenter 64-Bit RTM from MSDN. This is my one and only server (just my personal one for home), so I'm using this single server to run all of the services that I need. After a fresh
installation, I added the AD and DNS roles and promoted the server to the PDC. Then I go to add the Remote Desktop Virtualization Services (the VM virtualization role). The installation fails, but I can't find any explanation as to why.
I've wiped out the OS and reinstalled from scratch at leat 15 times, trying various combinations, fixes, approaches, etc. including powershell, Remote Desktop Services Deployment, standard role-based deployment, etc.
Using the role-based deployment, I can get every 'Remote Desktop Services' component to install except the Remote Desktop Connection Broker. I've tried enabling RDMSUI_TRACING, but didn't get any information at all as to why it's failing. I also
cannot find RDMSDeploymentUI.txt log.
I've also tried to deploy this using Powershell using this command:
New-SessionDeployment [-ConnectionBroker] <string> [-WebAccessServer] <string> [-SessionHost] <string>
That particular item does provide some error messages, but they seem to complain about the Session Host not being able to install due to not being able to find the connection string key in the registry for the Windows Internal Database. However, I can
get the session host and every other component to install using role-based deployment, except the Connection Broker.
I've run an SFC scan, which found no issues. I've also tried applying the one update available in Microsoft Update, and tried it without applying that update (reinstalling between attempts of course).
I'm completely at a loss. Has anyone encountered this before? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Is there a powershell command for just installing the Connection Broker that might provide some additional error information, or any
information at all?
I would greatly appreciate any help anyone could offer. I'm willing to try anything. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Sincerely,
Dominick

Also Found this:
1. You try to install the Remote Desktop Connection Broker (RDCB) on a server that also has the Active Directory Domain Server (domain
controller) role installed. This configuration is not supported by Microsoft. You need to install the RDCB on a server that does not have this role installed. See: Remote Desktop Services role cannot co-exist with AD DS role on Windows Server 2012 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2799605
2. If you don’t have the Active Directory Domain Service install, this issue might be caused by the Windows internal database (WID) that
the connection broker installs and the Windows Update KB2821895. If you have KB2821895 installed, unfortunately you can not uninstall this KB. Try to install the Remote Desktop Connection Broker (RDBC) role on a server that does not have this Windows update.
Note: There is currently no official communication from Microsoft that here is an issue with RDBC and KB2821895. However, try the RDBC installation
without this KB and see what happens.

Remote Desktop Connection

I'm running bootcamp Windows 8 on a MacBook Pro and a MacMini (on home network).
I have them set up for remote access. At home on the same network, I can remote desktop to the MacMini using the local IP address with no problems.
I then wanted to access it from an external network so I enabled the default 3389 port in my firewall settings and set up this port to my MacMini in my router settings. I reserved the IP address for the MacMini as well.
I was able to successfully connect from an external network at least once but once my external IP address changed, I was no longer able to get it to work after updating the IP address. The computer is on because I can access it using TeamViewer and I use
that to check the current IP address of the MacMini when I'm trying to connect.
To get around the dynamic IP problem, I signed up for a dyndns account and set up a host name. I can use a port check and the host name ***.dyn-o-saur.com resolves to the correct IP address (i.e., the whatismyip.com result on the MacMini).
I have tried changing the port to 8888 in case TeamViewer or some other application was using 3389 but that hasn't fixed the problem either. I've checked the port (using http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/port-scan/) and I get this message:
***.dyn-o-saur.com is responding on port 8888 (ddi-tcp-1).
I have the dynUpdater v5.0.1 installed on both computers and it says the host is inactive (however since the hostname is resolving properly I assume this means the app is not working but it shouldn't be affecting my ability to connect?).
Some help please?

Hi,
Firstly, we need to refer to this article and configure the settings.
Allow Remote Desktop connections from outside your home network
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/allow-remote-desktop-connections-from-outside-your-home-network
From you description, I think you have done this part. However, please keep to use port 3389 and make sure that you can RDP to your Windows 8 via the
Public IP address from Internet.
Then, as you have dynamic public IP address, we need some way to track the changes of your public IP address. Yes, dyndns is one of the methods, you need to make sure that it
can resolve the host name you registered to the correct Public IP address so that you can always RDP you Windows 8 via host name when you outside your home.
If you need assistance about dyndns, please contact their support.
Thanks.

Remote Desktop Connection stopped working

I made a change to my Verizon TV and Internet package, downgrading from Ultimate HD to Extreme HD and from 35/35 to 25/25. This morning, when I ran a speed test it showed the new speed. I went out for a few hours, and when I returned, my internet connection was not working at all.
I called Verizon's support number and, after talking to two different people, one who wanted to swap out my router, and one who wanted to send a tech to check out my ONT, they finally figured out the problem was with their configuration, not any of the hardware in my house, and got me running again at the correct speed.
During the trouble shooting process, they had me do multiple soft and hard reboots of my router, they remotely rebooted it, and had me push the recessed reset button once, restoring it to factory defaults. This led to problems with my wireless devices, so I loaded a configuration file to the router that I had thankfully saved some time prior to this problem, and everything seemed to be working properly.
Then, I tried to open a remote desktop connection from one of my machines to another one, both on my internal home network, a connection that had worked flawlessly up until now, and it would not work. Moreover, trying to ping the "remote" machine from the one trying to initiate the connection gets no reply, but pings are replied to in the other direction. And, both machines can see and access each other's shared folders and files, and both can see each other in the network map in the networking and sharing control panel app.
I never made any configuration changes to either machine during the trouble shooting process, but to be sure, I used system restore on both machines and took them back to restore points made yesterday, when everything was working.
I am at a loss to understand what has gone wrong, and would appreciate any constructive and helpful suggestions as to how to remedy this situation.
ps
I am running two different web servers on the target machine, and am running stunnel on it to provide secure nntp connections to a news client that doesn't have that capability built in, and none of these servers are available from other machines. Nothing seems to be getting through to the target pc except windows network sharing!

A perfect example. At least two game consoles. Any two (Two Xboxes, two Playstations, One Xbox and one Playstation).

Do you only use one at time or are there times when at least two are on?

We have two Xboxes and a Logitech Revue. I have Windows Media Sharing enabled on three computers, and am also running a beta of Logitech Media Server on one. It is possible that there are times when two or more streaming clients are in operation, but that is a very rare occasion. Two of the computers, the ones I mention in my original post, are on almost continuously.
In Advanced -> Universal Plug and Play, both Allow Other Network Users to Control Wireless Broadband Router's Network Features and Enable Automatic Cleanup of Old Unused UPnP Services are checked, and WAN Connection Publication: is set to Publish Only the Main WAN Connection.
In Advanced -> IP Address Distribution, under Dynamic IP Range it says192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.254. However, in Advanced -> IP Address Distribution -> Connection List I have set all the lease types to Static, because I was having problems using the Verizon web page to access my set top boxes, particularly the MRDVR. The Static IP addresses for the computers, game consoles, Bluray player etc. are in the range 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.12, and the set top boxes are at 192.168.1.100 & 192.168.1.101.
One thing I did not mention in my original post is that I have two unmanaged gigabit ethernet switches in my home network. There are two computers, the ones I mention in my original post, and the Logitech Revue plugged into one switch. That switch plugs into another switch which also has one pc, an Xbox, and a Bluray player plugged into it, and that switch then plugs into one of the ports on my Verizon supplied Actiontec MI424-WR Rev C, firmware version 4.0.16.1.56.0.10.14.4. All of the other ethernet ports on the router are unused. In addition, we have a laptop, a notebook, another Xbox, and a Wii that connect through the Actiontec's wireless.
I don't know if media streaming is still working and I don't really care if it is because we use it so seldomly. It never worked consistently or to our satisfaction. When we want to watch or listen to media from one computer on another, we copy it over the network from shared folders. We have a Homegroup, to which all of the computers belong. If we want to watch or listen to media on one of the game consoles, we copy it to a flash drive. The Bluray player is only connected to the network for firmware updates and for discs with network enabled content.
This same setup was operating before the problem developed, and I can't figure out what has changed to create the problem. The router configuration file that I am using is from June of 2011, and I'm pretty sure that everything was working fine then, and don't recall making any changes to the router's configuration since then.

"remote desktop connection has stopped working" When printing from remote desktop connection

I have been having a issue when using a windows 7 machine. I have Remote Desktop to a session on Windows2008 R2, I am using the local printer resources to redirect the printing. However everytime i try to print it crashes the remote desktop application.
Gives me "remote desktop connection has stopped working." I have 4 other computers connected and printing with no issues what so ever. This only happens when i print. It does print by the way just the application crashes.
-I have also updated the printer drivers to newest possible thru the manufactorer website. The printer is a Brother MFC-8890DW. Windows 2008 R2 is up to date for the RDS server. 3 other machines are able to Remote in and print. The user is able to print using
diffrent machines just not the Windows 7 machine.

Hi,
Happy to hear that you resolved your issue. For another issue which you are facing here trying to provide some suggestion.
As you have commented that you are facing issue with second screen resolution on wide screen. The setting which I am suggesting can only applies when you are using multi-monitor Remote Desktop connections. If you are making Connections using a single
monitor do not use this setting.
So for this you can try to apply “Limit maximum display resolution” setting in group policy, where you can mention the width & height for the screen to display. The setting can be applied on below mentioned
path.
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Remote Session Environment
Meanwhile sharing article with you for more information.

Remote Desktop Connection using the WRT54GC

I replaced a wired router with a Linksys WRT54GC wireless router. Connected to the wired router was a wireless router configured as an access point. I have 2 laptops and I successfully connected to the Internet from both. I was also able to connect to one of the laptops through the wireless access point using Remote Desktop Connection. The only difference between the configuration with the previous router and the Linksys is that the laptop with the Remote Desktop software (the host) was hard wired. Using the Linksys I can successfully access the Internet from both laptops. I can also get to the host computer over the LAN using Remote Desktop Connection. I CANNOT however access the host computer outside the LAN. I configured the router correctly using port forwarding and a 3389 port. I checked "enabled" and entered the IP Address of the host laptop (the one with the Remote Desktop Function). I disabled all security in the router. I have a dynamic address through dyndns.org and have setup the DNS portion of the router accordingly. Can you explain why I can no longer access my home computer remotely using Remote Desktop with the Linksys.

Are you able to access Remote Desktop Connection directly connecting to the modem.

Remote desktop connection problem windows 8

Hi everybody,
I hope you can help us. We run a software package that uses a remote desktop connection. When the program is minimised for more than a couple of minutes, the connection disconnects and takes a while to reconnect. We've been in touch with the guys that run
the program and they've said that there's no problem on their end and that it must be on our end. It's happening with all three computers at one location and it's not happening with our two computers in our other location.
I've been in touch with the online support guys in microsoft and they couldn't help. So I'm wondering if any of you can help us (in laymans terms please!).
All our computers run Windows 8.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
Yes, you can check with 2 different settings. 1) By Collection properties (Server 2012\R2) and RDP-Tcp connection under Remote Desktop Service Manager (Server 2008 R2). 2) The other setting is related to GPO (Set time
limit for active but idle Remote Desktop Services sessions) as following path.
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Session Time Limits
User Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Session Time Limits
You can check below link (Configuration 1) for more information.

Remote Desktop Connection with single Ethernet cable

Hi,
I'd like to be able to use Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection app to connect to one of my XP machines with my PowerBook. I can do this when everything is running on my home LAN, but I'd like to be able to connect with just a single Ethernet cable connected from my PowerBook's network port to the network card of the XP machine. This would allow me to use the PowerBook as a monitor when I bring the XP machine offsite to run tests (I'm a computer technician). I've played with the Network settings in the System Preferences, but things that would seem to me to work don't work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ken

When you're on the road, and these are the only machines connected to each other, you will either need to configure them to have static IP's in the same subnet
192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.3
255.255.255.0
no gateway/router IP required.
THey'll need to be in the same workgroup (but you probably have that already)
...or...
Configure the XP machine to be the DHCP server, and the mac to get IP from XP.
(first option is probably better.)
Might need a crossover cable. Might not.

Remote Desktop Connection With Custom Certificate on Windows 8.1 fails

I'm trying to establish a secured remote desktop connection without success.
The setting
There are some local pcs with windows 8.1 Pro and windows 7 Pro, no server-edition. I've created a self signed ca-certificate with openssl for Windows. I used this to sign custom certs for the local windows-pcs, which are installed at mmc -> certificate
snap-in for local computer -> My Certificates -> Certificates. The networkdriver has the right to read the key. The sha1-fingerprint of the custom signed certs are registered at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp
-> SSLCertificateSHA1Hash = sha-1 hash of the custom local cert. Additionally the revocation-list is restrained to the local list by setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Credssp -> UseCachedCRLOnlyAndIgnoreRevocationUnknownErrors
= 1.
The results
The connection form win 8.1 to win 7 works. The connection info confirms that it is a veryfied connection. The connection to windows 8.1 fails after entering the credentials with error: No connection possible. Network Level Authentication is set, but other
level don't work as well. The log (Event Views -> Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> TerminalServices-RemoteConnectionManager -> Admin) says "Remote Desktop Services has taken too long to load the user configuration
from server" and "The Local Security Authority Cannot Be Contacted" (error 0x80090304)
Aditional information
The connection via linux (remmina) works for win 7 and win 8.1, but I have no information about the encryption. It is the same with the Microsoft Remote Desktop Tool for Android.
Maybe it is accociatet with a different cert handling by Windows 8.1 but I couldn't find further information or a solution in the internet.
Best regards
abditus

I solved the problem!
The default openssl certificate signature algorithm is md5RSA but it doesn't work with windows 8.1.
It is at least sha1RSA needed.
By adding "default_md = sha1" to the openssl.cnf you create certs with sha1RSA and it works fine.
