Minimum services to run remote desktop web connection?
While I recognize that installing anything to do with terminal services or RDS on a domain controller is not recommended it is my only choice for a very small business that I'm helping out. They have Server 2008 R2 and all they want to be able to do is
have a couple of people remote in to their own computers when out of the office. What services are the simplest way to accomplish this? I can't find an answer to something this minimalist anywhere.
Hi Jim,
For your issue regarding double prompt, suggest you to enable RD Web SSO for your case; where we need to enter username and password once. In order for Web SSO to work:
a. The connection in RemoteApp and Desktop Connections must have an ID. By default, it is set to the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the RD Connection Broker server in case of RD Connection Broker mode. In RD Session mode, it is set to the FQDN of
the RD Web Access server.
b. RemoteApp programs must be digitally signed using a Server Authentication certificate [Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate].
c. Client operating systems must trust the certificate with which the RemoteApp programs are signed.
You can refer the following article for information.
Introducing Web Single Sign-On for RemoteApp and Desktop Connections
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rds/archive/2009/08/11/introducing-web-single-sign-on-for-remoteapp-and-desktop-connections.aspx
In regards to your error, we need to have required port open to make successful connection. Need to bind port 443 for RD Web and RD Gateway successful connection. Also need to have proper certificate.
Addition something might have happened to your IIS settings and more specifically to your Default Application pool. For example if you install some third-party web application, it may have changed the 32/64 bit feature on your Application pool. So please check
below points.
1) Go to IIS -> Application Pools -> DefaultAppPool -> Advanced Settings -> Enalbe 32-Bit Application - > if it's True , change it to False
2) Check other relevant application pools for the same setting - > SBS Web Workplace AppPool or SBS Web Applications application pool
All of the pools should run with Enable 32-Bit - False
More information.
This computer can't connect to the remote computer because the Terminal Services Gateway server is temporarily unavailable

WRT54GL not allowing Remote Desktop Web Connection
Im currently using a WRT54GL in a network with just two computer. Computer A is using a wired connection and Computer B is wireless with a Linksys adapter. Public IP address from ISP is a static IP address and all is setup in the router allowing both computers internet access with no problems. Both computers are setup with static IP. Computer A is 192.168.1.101. Computer B is 192.168.1.103. Both computers are installed with Internet Information Services.
1) Setting Up The Two Computers: I setup Computer A for port 50001, ie. I opened Control Panel, clicked Performance & Maint., Clicked Admin Tools, Double clicked IIS. Expanded Websites, right clicked Default Website and clicked on Properties. On the Website tab, I changed the value of the TCP port to the one above, 50001. I Opened the Properties Window of My Computer and clicked to the Remote tab. I placed a green Check into where it states, [Allow users to connect remotely to this computer]. On side note, I have admin rights to the computer so I did not click to [Select Remote Users]. I then accessed the Windows Firewall Settings, In the Exception Tab, I have Remote Desktop with a Check - Set with TCP 3389. I also added new port - game it Name: Remote Access, Port:50001. Settings were all saved. (I did all the same exact steps for Computer B, but the only difference is I used for 50002 instead)
2) Setting up the router: I access the router configuration with IP 192.168.1.1 Clicked to the Applications and Gaming. Selected [Port Range Forward]. Below where it tells to enter the ports and name for each port I entered for the first port. Application: FM-HS01, Start and End Ports: 50001 to 50001, Protocol: TCP, IP Address: 192.168.1.101, Enabled: {checked}. I again setup another below that for Computer B. FM-HS02, 50002 to 50002, TCP, 192.168.1.103, Enabled: {Checked}. I then clicked to Port Triggering screen. Under Application: [Remote Access], Trigger Range Start - End: [50001 to 50002], Forwarded Range Start - End: [3389 to 3389], Enabled [Checked]
Under the Security Tab for Firewall - I unchecked {Block Anonymous Internet Requests}, but have {Filter Multicast}, {Filter Internet NAT Redirection} , {Filter IDENT(Port 113)} all checked.
I also enabled remote access to router using default port 8080.
By using the ISP Static IP: ie http://64.193.93.46:8080/, I am able to access the router config page no problems. Problem is trying to access each Computer A and B. For Example: in IE address bar, I entered http://64.193.93.46:50001/ I get page stating Under Construction. Now if I try http://64.193.93.46:50001/tsweb/ I actually get the Microsoft Windows Remote Desktop Web Connection screen stating to enter Server __________ Size: and Connection Button. I enter the Computer Name for Computer A: FM-HS01, Choose the appropriate size and clicked connect. Page loads then all I see is an outline of a box where I assume the remote computer's screen should show. A message appears after trying to load stating: "
Remote Desktop can’t find the computer “FM-HS01”. This might mean that “FM-HS01” does not belong to the specified network. Verify the computer name and domain that you are trying to connect to."
This is where I have been ending up at. I have not able to get pass this part. Any Help Please??? I am not sure is there are other ports I would need to open along with the ones I have specified above. On another side note, my Antivirus software for both computers are CA eTrust AntiVirus which I have also configured for both computers.Just change the ports to what ever you think of and be sure to make the right single port forwards (if you put comp A to 50001, make *.*.*.101:50001 forward and so on). Just be sure you are not running anything else on the same port, on the same computer (for excample the IIS terminal server client application). And from outside you just connect the remote desktop client to your external iport_number ie use the comp_ip:50001 for comp A in the client program connection window (not http:// in browser).

Remote Desktop Web Connection ActiveX
I need to have this installed on my iPad but did not see it in the app's store. Without this I can't access my work pc. Any suggestions?
Look into logmein it's much easier than rdp as do not have to configure ports for each user
and once it's installed on your pc or mac it is accessable via any pc plus it has an iPhone/iPod/ipad app
called logmein ignition that will solve your problem, if you have multiple users with a remote access need
I would (already have) create a master or admin account then add your users pc or mac under that account
then each user that is in need to remote in can be either invited by the admin acount or given access permission from the admin account that way you have access control but as far as needing to remote in via remote desktop in my opinion and I administer over 300 users over 5 companies the logmein is the way to go in fact I am patiently awaiting my 3g ipad so that I can remote in from anywhere and everywhere hope this helps here's a web address
http://www.logmein.com
not sure if it's possible for you to email users but if it is shoot me a line if you have any questions and I will be more than happy to help out

Windows Server 2008R2 running Remote Desktop Services reports printer process does not exist when installing PDF printer, And when Installing network printers from the domain controller it reports it cannot connect to printer. I can ping all
network devices. I can connect to the internet.
On boot I get a netlogon 5719 error followed by service control manager errors 7023,7001 and a group policy error 1129.
Clients can connect to the remote application and RDP operates to connect to the server internally and externally.
The domain controller is another server 2008r2 box. I have scoured the internet but have not found any solutions that work yet.Hi,
After referring to your post, it can be identified that the issue which you are facing is mostly due to some network issue in your environment. Please recheck your network connection issue between computer and domain controller.
Can you able to ping with IP address and also with fully qualified name of a domain controller in the users' and computers' domain. If it fails states that name resolution issue with computer and domain controller. Are you using MS DHCP Relay agent then there’s
available Hotfix for the particular Event ID. Please go through this KB 2459530 to fix the error event ID.
As per the net logon error 5719 which you are facing states that the client component of Netlogon was unable to locate a DC for the domain it was trying to perform an operation against. Below is one of the reason. If this is being logged on a DC and the event
refers to the DC's own domain, something might be preventing the client component of Netlogon from starting a network session (to itself or to another DC in the domain). The following event 7001 & 7023 states start & stop operation service. Please
go through beneath article for more details.
1. Event ID 5719 is logged when you start a computer
2. Netlogon 5719 and the Disappearing Domain [Controller]
3. Event ID 1129 — Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy
Hope it helps!

Any suggestions? -
How do I find out my MBP's 'server name?' to run Remote Desktop Connection?
How do I find out my MBP's 'server name?' to run Remote Desktop Connection?
Hi Dave,
You need to type the server name that was assigned by your mail administrator for the server running Exchange. So please ask your administrator for the Server name. Thanks for your understanding.
For more information, here is an article for your reference.

Windows 2008 R2 + Remote Desktop Web Access + Single Sign-On + 2 servers
Hi
First sorry for my English. I have got problem with run SSO with RDWeb. I configured everything follow this instructions: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rds/archive/2009/08/11/introducing-web-single-sign-on-for-remoteapp-and-desktop-connections.aspx
and http://blogs.technet.com/b/mrsnrub/archive/2010/03/22/remote-desktop-services-websso.aspx. After logon to RDWeb web page I click application icon. Then I see dialog box for credentials - SSO not working.
I have got 2 servers with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard:
Server OL-AP1 with role Remote Desktop Session Host (RDSH) and certificate for digital sign RemoteApps
Server OL-AP04 with ONLY Remote Desktop Web Access (RD Web) with certificate for https
Client PC: Windows 7 SP1 with installing certificate for OL-AP01 witch I used for digital sign RemoteApps
All certificates created by enterprise domain CA - Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS)Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Do you have RD Gateway setup in your environment?
Have you configure RD Connection Broker and set the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the RD Connection Broker server in case of RD Connection Broker mode. In RD Session mode, it is set to the FQDN of the RD Web Access server.
Client operating systems must trust the certificate with which the RemoteApp programs are signed. Suggest to install RDP 8.1 for client OS.
Do you have a trusted certificate with a matching name configured on your RDSH server in RD Session Host Configuration? (Means cert must match the name that clients use to connect to it for running the RemoteApp).
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Using remote desktop web access (RDWEB) with remoteapps and a traditional remote desktop
I configured windows 2012 r2 remote desktop services and remote desktop web access (rdweb) and was able to click the icon on the rdweb page to log on to a remote desktop session. When I published a remoteapp program, the remote desktop icon went away. How
do I get it back? Do I need to publish remote desktop as a remoteapp so users can both use remote apps and log on to a traditional remote desktop session?
thanks in advance for the helpHi,
You can just publish RDC as RemoteApp and then can connect to the desired remote desktop connection. You can check the below snap.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Remote Desktop Web Access Administration not in menu
I am trying to figure out why RemoteApp is working and Remote Desktop connection isn't on my very simple installation. One thing I came across is that something seems to be missing from my Remote Desktop Services menu. According to the TechNet article at https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee891009(WS.10).aspx
if I should be able to access RD Web administration by following these instructions:
On the RD Web Access server, click Start, point to Administrative Tools, point to Remote Desktop Services, and then click Remote Desktop Web Access Administration.
But when I go there I find that there is no Remote Desktop Web Access Administration. Any ideas on why it doesn't exist?Yes, that's the OS I'm using. Those settings are set properly as far as I know. Since this is all on one server, the DC (very small office that can't justify second server), I'm not using an RD Connection Broker so it's set to the RemoteApp sources and
the Source name is the internal FQDN of the server. servername.domain.local. The weird thing is that when I log in via RD Web the RemoteApps Programs tab has a Remote Desktop icon that successfully connects me to the server but the Remote Desktop tab always
fails, telling me it can't connect to the computer. -
Audio Redirection and Remote Desktop Web Access
I recently deployed a 2012r2 Remote Desktop solution. I have a collection published for remote desktop sessions and have configured it to allow all redirection shown in the interface. However when users connect through Web Access, they do not get audio recording
redirection.
Is there a way to enable this through Remote Desktop Web Access?Hi,
Glad to hear that it is up now. Please keep us informed when the issue is resolved.

Can I use Apple Remote desktop to connect over the internet?
I would like to use Apple Remote Desktop to connect back to my MacPro desktop at home while I am on my Macbook Air at work. Will I need a static IP from my service provider to do it.
Hi
It's not absolutely necessary but it would be more useful if you did have one. Most ISPs will require you to have a business class broadband service at your home rather than a residential one. These cost more (a lot more in some cases) than a residential service. Call your home location's ISP and discuss it with them.
If the cost is too much then you could go for a DynDNS account which is free. The details of this account would be configured in the whatever you're using as a firewall at your home's location. This assumes the firewall has the facility to add such an account. Thereafter it's just a question of configuring the port fowarding feature of that firewall.
A potentially 'big' problem though is whether or not your workplace will allow that kind of traffic out of their network. This would be something you'd need to discuss with them first.
HTH?

Terminal Services (TS) or Remote Desktop Services (RDS) scenario clarifications
Dear Support,
Question:
Do I still need to purchase RDS CALS license? or can use MSDN CALs in the Terminal Server?
Due to MSDN subscribers are End users, do not use Production Data and have to demo their developed applications to other End users group.
Scenario:
1. Use only Remote Desktop Session.
2. End users are MSDN Subscribers. (Although stated by Microsoft End users are non MSDN subscribers)
3. End users demo applications to End users.
4. End users develop their applications and have to demo to other End users group.
From MSDN link:
Client Access Licenses for Terminal Services
With an MSDN subscription, you are allowed to provide end users access to Internet demonstrations of your programs via Terminal Services (Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008) or Remote Desktop Services (Windows Server 2008 R2). Up to 200 anonymous
users can simultaneously access your demonstration this way. Your demonstration must not use production data. MSDN subscribers are licensed to demonstrate their applications to end users,
but Terminal Services (TS) or Remote Desktop Services (RDS) is the only scenario where end users without an MSDN subscription can interact with the demonstration application while the software is licensed through MSDN subscriptions.
Accessing CALs
MSDN subscribers can access CALs for demonstration purposes through the
Product keys page of MSDN Subscriber Downloads. Please access the documentation resources online for assistance with the
Terminal Server activation process. If you have any questions, please visit the Microsoft
Terminal Services forum.
Mary LeeHi
Please call the licensing to be sure. In the USA (866) 230-0560 or

RD Services vs. Remote Desktop?
RD Services is basically Remote Desktop except it allows multiple user sessions, correct?
Is there a way to make an end-user's experience more clean? Such as not showing Server Manager or Admin tools?If the user is not an admin, there are a number of ways to lock down things for a standard user. Or else you can simply perform the following:
You can do it by registry change
Do not open Server Manager at logon
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Server Manager
0 to disable and open the window normally; 1 to enable and prevent the window from opening.
Do not open Initial Configuration Tasks at logon
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Server Manager\oobe
0 to disable and open the window normally; 1 to enable and prevent the window from opening.
or you can use the following GPO:
“Do Not Display Server Manager Automatically at Logon”
under Computer Configuration/policies/Administrative templates/System/Server Manager.
Hope this helps.
