Hi,
Please check this:
Jump to Local Resources tab, under local devices and resources section, click More button, this window will popup:

Terminal Server Session Management: why do we need a rdp session to take control of a terminal session?

Hi all,
As title, I have this question: why do we need a rdp session to take remote control of a terminal server session?
I copied tsadmin and related file to a windows 8.1 pc and I'm able to see for every terminal server the list of users logged in, but the option "take control" is greyed out... why? is not possible to avoid this block?
Thanks in advance
Davide

Hello, Davide_ita.
Also tried to use RDSM to "Remote Control" user's sessions, but in this thread
Remote Control
with Remote Desktop Services Manager - error Access is denied (Windows Server 2012 R2)
I get the recommendation to use RDP or Remote Assistance.
The quote of
TP []:
Hi,
You cannot remote control a session on a 2012 R2 RDSH server using Remote Desktop Services Manager. You need to use the RDP 8.1 mstsc.exe or the RDS gui in Server Manager on 2012 R2. The command you would use with the RDP 8.1 client would be
this:
mstsc /shadow:<sessionid> /control

TTA to WTS2003 RDP session

Hi,
we have a problem with RDP sessions on a WTS
2003 Server (in 90 days test TS mode) from a
TTA 3.42.915 (Linux RH 3ES). The tcp connection
itself works, it will be established, some
login an init data packages are send in each direction, then the TTA
server sends a FIN -- but
no FIN comes from the WTS -- after a few seconds the TTA send a RST; the
WTS comments this with error 1004 in the event log.
Surprisingly, this happens only most oft time,
sometimes the session login is successful..
BUT RDP sessions are no problem at all
from either a Windows TS client or even from
the TTA server, using the rdesktop tool.
The output from "./ttatsc wts" is:
Starting...
Locating session...
..found session
Connecting to session...
..connected
STATE_PROTOCOL_INIT
Connecting to server...
Connected
Initializing session...
Starting session...
Waiting for application...
Done
Unknown Terminal Services license error
Thanks for any hint in advance.

Hi Tankred, all,
We have a similar issue here.
Could you tell us how you found out is was a Client License issue.
Unfortunately we do not see anything in the eventlogs so a suggestion in
this direction would be more then appreciated. Everything points to license
issues but without evidence in any of the logging.

it was indeed a TS license problem only.

We had this on a W2K TS. This was a problem with the clients license.
Like
Justin says, try connecting to the TS with the same client you are using
to logon to TTA but use mstsc instead and see what message you get. Also
check event log.

If your sgd client is a Windows platform, does the Microsoft RDP client
work from the same machine?
What output does the command "tarantella tscal list" give?

Is port 3389 open between the TTA & WTS servers?SURE, since i wrote, that the tcp connection
will be established.

Black Screen after logging in locally to Windows 7 that previously had an open RDP session.

Here is what happens. I leave my home computer on (running Windows 7 Ultimate) and sometimes I will remote to it from another location (work, friends house, or wherever). When I return home, I will go to login, the screen then goes blank (no mouse cursor
or anything). I have to do a cold boot to get back into Windows. This only happens if I ever RDP into it sometimes during the day. It seems random. I've tried logging off the RDP session, just closing it without logging off, nothing seems to be the answer
in that regard. It seems very random at times. I'll go a week and I can come home and it will login fine with no problems. Then the next week it starts giving me the black screen after I come home and login locally. I've seen several black screen issues here,
but usually they are getting it before logon. Anyone have a clue what might be causing this?

Can't full-screen RDP session window?

Hi, I'm using Win7 to RDP to an AWS WinServer2012 box. I need to view RDP session full screen. Checked RDP -> Display configuration, which is set to Full Screen. My machine's resolution is set to 1680x1050.
I checked the Screen Resolution on the server and see "The display settings can't be changed from a remote session." Also, resolution shows a greyed-out 1280x705, under which is a ! Your resolution is lower than 1024 x 768. Some items might not
fit and apps might not open.
Any leads?
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
First of all suggest you to increase RDP version of client windows 7 to RDP 8.1. in addition for a try you can change the .RDP file setting and check whether you can use full screen in remote desktop session. For this you need to change the desktop height and
weight under .RDP file as below.
desktopwidth:i:<set to screen width>
desktopheight:i:<set to screen height>
Kindly go through beneath article for detail.

Is it possible to view an RDP sessions as black and white? I'm considering ordering a privacy screen, but I think if the RDP sessions could be black and white that would be sufficient.

How to do Regional Setting Configuration in RDP session ( Eg Date Format, Currency, Decimal Seperator etc)

Hi All,
I am new to Windows Server 2008 R2 administration.
I would like to know is there a way to do Regional Setting Configuration in RDP session. i.e Date Format, Currency, Decimal Separator etc are based on users local machine.
Eg If a user from UK logs in he should see date format as DD/MM/YY and if user from US logs in he should date format as MM/DD/YY.
We are currently using citrix and we are managing this using logon script that runs based on citrix published application name.
Is there any way we can achieve the same in RDP ?
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks & Regards,

Everyday around 3 to 4 PM all RDP sessions (around 50) getting disconnected

Hi,
We have a Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server (workgroup) with SQL Server and C# application installed on the same terminal server.
Around 50 users access this terminal server. Since 15 days, everyday between 3PM to 4 PM, all the 50 user sessions gets dicsonnected at the same time and without anything done on the server, users can RDP again and work without any problems.
Verified event logs, terminal server logs, network, firewall, router etc. everything is working fine.
Only thing observed is, when RDP sessions gets disconnected, we see PING time out.
Any help to address this issue is appreciated.
Raghuveer.

Hi this is the error, users are experiencing.
The session won't go into disconnect status, it stays ACTIVE only in the terminal server.
User session freezes for 5 to 15 seconds and the same RDP session continues to work without any manual intervention.
Is this network issue ? We ruled out network cable, routers problems if any in both client and server locations.
Error: Reconnecting
The connection has been lost..Attempting to reconnect to your session...
Connection attempt 1 of 20
Enabled following :
Open Group Policy Object Editor:

Navigate to Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Terminal Services
Click on Keep-Alive Connections and select enabled.
Any other suggestions is beneficial to us to fix this issue.

Disabling Local machine trackpad in RDP session

Hello!
I'm having an issue with users in my network. Haha!
I've got some users who prefer an external mouse to their laptop's trackpad, which I have no problem with. However, many of these users have issues with typing while not touching the trackpad.
I've been IT Director since the beginning of July and have received several complaints of "My mouse keeps jumping around like crazy."
So, being the nice guy that I am, I disabled the trackpad on the local machines for these users. Unfortunately, this setting hasn't translated to their RDP session into the terminal server (Server 2012 Standard) that hosts our EMR software (where most
users actually do most of their work).
Long story short, my question is how can I disable the local machine's trackpad in an RDP session to a terminal server for specific users?
I thought maybe a Group Policy item could fix the issue, but not all users in the group use an alternative to the trackpad and not all of the users that are having these issues are in the same group.
Also, all laptops are Dells, but different models, so possibly different trackpads/drivers.
I've done quite a bit of searching and stumbled onto other forums, but found nothing to even point me in the right direction, so any help/advice is greatly appreciated!

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Which version of server\client OS using in your environment?
From your description it seems that you are facing issue with specific users, so for that you need to disable the track pad manually and GPO can’t apply over that. In addition, I want to say that please use client RDP 8.1 for better feature.
If you are using server 2008 R2, then please try to update KB 2579381 and check the result.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 RDS hang and stop responding new rdp session. Already connected session also hang as well

We have a Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 RDS supporting many ThinClients, mostly using a mandatory profile on a Windows 2003 R2 AD environment
at the moment of the hang what we experienced was:
New RDP sessions got stucked in the legend "Iniciando" (we have the spanish MUI).
Systems Events shows a lot of Warnings:
The Group Policy Client Side Extension Group Policy Shortcuts may have caused the Group Policy Service to terminate unexpectedly. To prevent further failures in the Group Policy
Service, this extension has been temporarily disabled until after the next system restart. Group Policy settings managed by this extension may no longer be enforced until the system is restarted. The vendor of this extension should be contacted if this issue
recurs.
and after that a lot of this errors:
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the CryptSvc service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the NlaSvc service.
The RDP protocol component X.224 detected an error in the protocol stream and has disconnected the client.
timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the Schedule service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the gpsvc service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the BITS service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the SessionEnv service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the ShellHWDetection service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the CertPropSvc service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the IKEEXT service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the iphlpsvc service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the SessionEnv service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the iphlpsvc service.
During the problem we ping DC and Network Share where Profile and Document Redirection resides and they were working OK (we also did a
\\server\HomeUsers and we reached it without problem)
Only reseting the server worked, Any Ideas of what could be causing this ?? Best Regards

Hi Clarence,
Today we experienced the problem again,
Users can’t login to RDS, but now they got stucked at “"Please wait for the Group Policy client”;
System log events recorded the following errors again:
timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the Schedule service.
timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the sessionenv service.
timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the ShellHWDetection service.
timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the Wuauserv service.
timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the BITS service.
timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the CertPropSvc service.
What path do you suggest to investigate further?
Thanks a lot!

Local printer not showing up in RDP session

Is the user RDP using the RDP shortcut saved or creates a new connection everytime? if using the save connection, have you tried deleting it and re-creating it and checking the local resources option again. It should show up a redirected printer in RDP session.

Hi Spicepros,
Situation: I've got a Windows 7 machine using RDP (let's call it Local) connected to a remote Windows 7 machine (Remote) which is hosted on an iMac in Boot Camp. It is a VPN connection. The printer, attached directly to the Local system is an HP LaserJet 400 M401 PCL6 connected via "USB001 Virtual Port". But this printer does not show up on the remote Windows 7 machine.
The RDP connection has Local Resources turned on.
My colleague was able to print to her local printer until she replaced her printer. Now we can't make it work.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Warm regards,
Dave

RDP session freeze when resizing RDP window

Hi
since last week friday a user reports a freezing RDP session when he resize the RDP window (to move the session window to another screen (PC has 3 screens connected)) of a . The RDP target is a windows 2008 R2 RDS. Last Friday there were many MS updates
installed on this PC.
I determined that the issue must be related to the PC, if user connects from another PC to RD-Server the problem doesn't exists. But i have no starting point to search for the reason. There are no warnings or errors in local eventlog. RDP connections to
another RD-Server work fine.
Any hint where to start to solve this issue?
Regards Carsten

Hi Carsten,
Thanks for the reply.
It seems that the user has updated his RD client to RDP 8.0. If so, please note that Aero Glass is not supported.

RDP Session not showing redirected printers.

I have a very weird issue and can't seem to find a fix..
I have a user on a XP pc who connects to server via RDP.. all the settings are correct on his pc from what i can tell, but he can't see his local printers from the RDP session.
I know thing are fine on the server side are set correctly, because if we connect to the server from another XP pc in the office, using the same credentials.. he can see the printers in the RDP session, so we know it is not the server or his user profile,
but something to do with his PC specifically.
I have checked every setting that i can think of, and have searched the web, but I have had no success.
Any suggestions... short of reinstalling/upgrading the OS?
