Licensing timed out

When trying to logon to a server with RDP, after sitting in the 'estimating connection quality' state for a while, certain users are getting the following error message:
"A licensing error occurred while the client was attempting to connect. (Licensing timed out)"
What could be the problem?

Hi,
Thanks for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
There are several reason as you face this issue. The issue might occurs due to firewall, IPsec over TCP, RDS CAL or licensing. Please go through below article for detail information.

"Licensing timed out" when creating to Remote Desktop Connection

Our company have two site (SiteA and SiteB), both have its own DC (SiteA.xx.local and SiteB.yy.local). A Windows 2012 Server setup a Terminal Service. All SiteB user will use remote desktop to connect to the Terminal Server.
Sometime it will prompted an error "A licensing error occurred while the client was attempting to connect (Licensing timed out). Please try connecting to the remote computer again." Before this error message shown, the connection box
will show the status "Estimating connection quality" for a while (my last test this will stay for 2 min 30 sec. before Licensing timed out prompt).
When we face this error, the only way to solve it is to reboot the Terminal Server. Once reboot, everything will be fined, all user can connect again. But sometime later (no fixed time period, from two hours - two days), user
will then have this problem. But we need to reboot server again.
I can't found in what situation this error will happened. But we do experienced the following situation.
1. Sometime the a RDS Connection just stopped directly. Then try to reconnect but failed. In this case, all other users are still using it.
2. I try to unplug a network connection for a client, it show the connection is lost and trying to reconnect. After I plug the network back. Cancel the reconnect process. Then open the remote desktop again it will have the error.
3. there has two machine will never have this problem (we have this problem for 3 months). no matter how the connection lost. it can built up the connection once the connection is back
I followed some forum to enable the netlogon.log. On the Server, I found:

Hi Kenneth,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Please check the setting and workaround as per below thread.
RDP connection hangs on "estimating connection quality"
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/18819bef-5c01-4849-9c61-afb7e8c8a581/rdp-connection-hangs-on-estimating-connection-quality?forum=winserverTS
In addition, also check below details.
Cause: If you are using Internet Protocol security (IPsec) to help protect traffic over TCP between clients and terminal servers, then packet fragmentation might occur. As a result, some packets might not reach their destination, and
client connections to terminal servers might fail.
Solution: Configure IPsec to help protect traffic over UDP rather than over TCP.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

PCD error : Login to node timed out

Dear All,
I am in an urgent need to solve this error. I have cucm 10 at a client site but the trial licence is expiring soon so I wanted to install a new cucm 10 from PCD so that i get a few days trial in the mean while the client will purchase the license for cucm.
When i run the PCD it gives me error while exporting the cucm backup stating :Login to node cucm timed out" after this the process pauses.
I have attached the error, please help me out.

I was facing the above problem because of my source CUCM server not being licensed. I guess we need the source CUCM licensed in order to migrate it to other server.

Cannot update and download ios 5 to iphone 4 or ipad...everytime i try i get half way through a 2 hour download for it to say "network connection timed out" what do i do to download

When you get anything that says your network connection timed out it either means you lost internet connection or there is something blocking the connection between the computer and the servers that it is trying to connect to.
If you have a solid internet connection and can browse to websites fine it's either an anti-virus program or a firewall on the computer OR a firewall in the router's settings that you use to connect to the internet.
Reconfigure any security software to allow Apple's servers to pass.
Useful information for configuring your security software:
IMPORTANT: iTunes must be allowed to contact Apple using the following ports and servers:
          ▪          port 80
          ▪          port 443
          ▪          phobos.apple.com, deimos3.apple.com, albert.apple.com, gs.apple.com, itunes.apple.com, ax.itunes.apple.com, ax.init.itunes.apple.com, ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net
iTunes uses well known ports and these ports may need to be opened for iTunes: 80, 443, 3689, 5297, 5298, 5353, 8000-8999, and 42000-42999.
iTunes also contacts VeriSign servers during an iPhone restore and activation:
          ▪          evintl-ocsp.verisign.com
          ▪          evsecure-ocsp.verisign.com
For more information see Update and restore alert messages on iPhone and iPod touch
Temporarily disable or uninstall your security software
If the current available version of your security software is incompatible with iTunes, you can disable the security software and test if it is the source of the issue. It might also be necessary to temporarily uninstall security software after making sure you can reinstall it and note any required licenses. A temporary deinstallation might be required because parts of some security software remain active in the background though they appear to be deactivated.
To reduce any security risks that security software is designed to prevent, consider making sure all files needed to reinstall it are available and disconnect network connections before uninstalling security software. Should this not be possible, such as if a download without active security software is required, that required step should be the only process completed without security software. For assistance in checking your configuration, disabling, or uninstalling your security software, please contact the manufacturer.
Once disabled or uninstalled, perform only the steps required to verify your issue has been resolved. Complete whatever update, restore, syncing, back up, activation, or other task you were troubleshooting. Once that task is complete, install and configure compatible security software to ensure your PC is protected.
If it isn't a program or software on the computer contact your Internet Service Provider and/or Router Company to configure or disable the firewall in the router settings.
To isolate the issue to this you can also try disconnecting the router and plugging your computer directly in to the modem but this does not help for troubleshooting time-out issues directly on any apple mobile devices only if you are syncing or going through iTunes on the computer.

Installation of Nexus 1000v 4.2.1.SV2.1.1 - Operation timed out.

Hi,
We are trying to install the latest version of Nexus 1000v to ESXi5.1 and the installer application is much better than the previos one, but we are having problems with implemetation, because deploying of OVA file times out.
First attempt: Nexus-1 was successfully deployed on ESXi-1, but Nexus-2 which should be deployed on ESXi-2 returned an error: "Deploy OVF template":"Operation timed out."
Second attempt: Deploying of Nexus-1 returned the same error
Third attempt: The same as the first attempt.
It looks like that there is a time limit which is used for deploying OVA file and since file needs to be uploaded to ESXi it takes too long, so the installation fails. Is it possible to extend this time?
BR, M.

Hi Mtrcek,
The fact that it gets to the 'Deploy OVF Template' step and then fails still points to one of two possible things:
1. DNS
2. Storage
1. DNS - When you say you put entries in hosts files it tells me you are looking at the DNS on the VC or ESX hosts. What you need to check is the DNS on the vShield Manager. DNS servers need to be configured on the vShield Manager, also a good way to test is to log in to the CLI of the vShield Manager and from there ping by hostname the VC and the ESX servers.
2. Storage - make sure there is enough space on the datastore where you are deploying the vShield Zones firewall and make sure there are no latency/slowness when writing to the disk. A quick test is to install the vShield Zones firewall on local disk, just to rule out the shared storage being the issue. Of course, this is not the recommended installation location and I would strongly suggest to uninstall and then re-install on shared storage once the issue is fixed (Assuming there are issues with shared storage).
ne more thing I noticed from the screenshot is that you have not applied the license keys for vShield App and vShield Edge. I mention this because you say your test plan requires Edge and most likely vShield App (not the free version: Zones). You will need to apply the license keys in order to be able to deploy Edge.
Please check DNS/Storage.
orrrrrrrrrrrrrr
vShield Data Security Installation Fails
Problem
During vShield Data Security installation, I get an error while installing the service virtual machine and an
error message on vSphere client.
NAME=deploy OVF template Target=VMWARE-Data Security-xxxx
Status=operation timed out
Cause
The DNS setup for vShield Manager may not be consistent with the DNS setup for the host in vCenter Server.
Solution
Change the vShield Manager DNS setup so that it matches the host setup.

Help!! "timed out network connection" at the end of the iOS5 update for my 1st generation Ipad.

I have been attempting to update my first generation Ipad to iOS5 for two days. I continue to get the message "network connection timed out" The updates have been for 3 hours, 4 hours, 30 minutes, 20 minutes and now 10 hours. They all download and at the end when the file starts processing the timed out message pops up. I have disabled virus software, did not work. I have used the internet at both home and office, hard wired internet, wireless internet.........nothing works. Deleted temporary internet files. Very frustrated. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
Nothing to investigate at the application side, there is everything to investigate at the network side.
Check the below points.
- is there any firewall in play
- is there any Network Address Translation into play
- have the correct ports been opened in the firewall
- is Oracle using random return ports (by default Oracle always uses 2 tcp/ip ports, the first one fixed, and configured in tnsnames.ora, the actual communication takes place on a radom port. If that is a problem at your site you need to fix that)
- You need to run netstat -r to identify which ports are actually used.

I cannot acess some of my emails. Thunderbird keeps saying "connection to SMTP server (email adress) timed out. What does that mean? What do I do please?

I purchased 2 new email, adresses a few weeks ago. Both were fine but a few days ago I was stopped sending and stopped receiving emails on the one. The message comes up on my screen "connection to SMTP server (followed by my email adress) timed out. That does not mean a thing to me. What should I do please?

Thankyou.
I had been asked by ICANN some days ago to do something but I thought it was a scam so ignored it. Most other users I have spoken to have never heard of ICANN or been asked to 'register' with them or whatever. Anyway, post writing to you I have now 'registered' with them . When I now click on my incoming email adress it just says "failed to connect to server" but why it fails I do not know.

My e-mails are not sending. "connection to SMTP server timed out." How do I get this working?

As of yesterday, I am receiving e-mails fine; however, unable to send. Everytime I try to send an e-mail, I get "Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server (my mail address) timed out. Try again or contact your network administrator.
I received help from lunarpages (they host my domain); however, they were unable to resolve the issue. They suggested something is blocking IP, or need to update Thunderbird, or there's a firewall there...
Help!!!
My clients are waiting for responses to e-mails!
Thank you.

To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try one of the following:
*Restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". If Thunderbird works like normal, there is an Add-on or Theme interfering with normal operations. You will need to re-enable add-ons one at a time until you locate the offender.
*Restart the operating system in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection. Click on your operating system for instructions on how to start in safe mode: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode Windows 8], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7 Windows 7], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-vista Windows Vista], [http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/boot_failsafe.mspx?mfr=true" Windows XP], [http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564 OSX]

Cannot login to Facebook on my iPhone 5 iOS 8.1 - Connection timed out - Error signing in

The other day, I had logged out of Facebook on my iPhone, and when I tried logging back in, it wouldn't let me. When I try to log in through the settings page, it stays on verifying for a while and says "Error signing in" and tells me there is no internet connection and when I try logging in through the facebook app, it says "Connection timed out" and asks me to make sure i have an active internet connection. The fact is my internet is working, and I can log in to facebook through safari, but not my app.
And one more thing. I have tried most of the methods mentioned in the forums. I have spent the last 2 days trying all of them from trying to create a new account using the old details, remove the phone number from facebook and try again, hard reboot by pressing the home and power buttons, resetting network and privacy settings, and reinstalling the app about 3-4 times. None of these work.
I'd be grateful if somebody can help me out with this .
