RDS 2012 R2 RemoteApp Server Name Mismatch

Hi All,
I wonder if someone can scratch my head on this.
Brand new RDS 2012 R2 deployment.
RDS01 with Connection Broker and Session Host Roles installed
RDS02 with Web Access and Gateway roles installed
one ssl certificate with one domain remote.mycompany.com
the certificate have been imported to all the servers via the Edit Deployment
the local domain is mycompany.local
the problem that i am having is that when i launch RemoteApp after login in the remote.mycompany.com externally, i get Certificate mismatch, because it is contact the local name of the Session host server RDS01.
What i tried so far.
Used the Set-PublishName (http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Change-published-FQDN-for-2a029b80) without success
Try to configure RDS01 certificate via (http://ryanmangansitblog.wordpress.com/2013/03/10/configuring-rds-2012-certificates-and-sso/)
Check Any resources ( http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d1b0ebe4-9e53-47ff-8c75-43fd91ff538a/windows-2012-rds-certificate-mismatch?forum=winserverTS)
Has anybody out there could shade me some knowledge in how to rectify the mismatch name warning.
Thanks
Elton

Hi -TP,
Answering your queries.
1_the Set-RDPublishedName was successful, restarted the servers, refreshed the RDWeb page externally, tried to connect unsuccessfully.
2_I am using externally windows 8 and internally 7 fully updated
3_it had the green successful message.
After, set-rdpublishedname command, i get an erro when try to connecting saying, RemoteApp Disconnected.
Error:
Remote desktop cant connect to the computer "remote.mycompany.com"
1)Your user account is not listed in the RD Gateway Permission ( not true, it was set for domain users and my test user is under that group)
2)you might have specified the remote computer in netbios format or ip
Do you reckon i am having this problem because the RDS01 with Connection Broker and Session Host Roles installed?
Cheers
Elton

RDS 2012 R2 - RemoteApp - Certificate Mismatch

Hi!
We have a newly built RDS 2012 R2 setup.
It consists of the following:
1 x Server with the Gateway and the Web Access role
2 x Servers running a Connection Broker HA cluster
3 x Servers running as Session Hosts
The internal domain name is example.local
We have purchased a wildcard certificate for the entire setup. (called *.example.com)
An external DNS record - RDS.example.com - has been created and it NAT to the Gateway and Web Access server.
We have used the script from
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Change-published-FQDN-for-2a029b80 to publish the FQDN. The name we have publised is Broker.example.com. We have created a split-brain DNS internally so that the clients can resolve external names internally.
Whenever we try to launch a RemoteApp externally we get the dreaded "Name mismatch" (and it takes about 30 seconds before we get the prompt):
Any ideas how to solve this issue?

Hi TP.
Thank you for your advice.
I've updated the Windows 7 client to RDP 8.1 and it did the trick! Thank you.
But we have several external users - and we don't have any chance of controlling if they are running RDP 8.1. I tried to import the wildcard certificate to all RDSH servers
- using the script in this link: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/475fb55f-e394-45d9-a6bd-a37e2a5fe86c/rds-2012-session-host-certificate-assignment?forum=winserverTS
However - that is when I see the "Name mismatch" warning when launching a RemoteApp (as mentioned in my original post). I suppose this is because the certificate is valid
only for *.example.com - and not for *.example.local?
Is there any solution to this?

RemoteApp Server Name Setting in Server 2012

Hi all,
we are using RD Web Access with IE 10 to provide our windows application to the users. The server is running windows server 2008 R2.
Now we are installing a new Server 2012.
In Server 2008 R2 it is possible to define the server name for the remoteapp clients in the remoteapp-manager (e.g. "test.de").
Where is this defined in Server 2012?
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,
You may download the cmdlet below to your RD Connection Broker server and use it to change the name:

RDS 2012 R2 - RemoteApp Disconnected

Hi RDS 2012 R2 Experts,
I would like some guidance here if possible
My setup is a follow.
1x 2012r2 with the following role, Broker, Web access, Gateway and License called RDS01
2x 2012r2 Session Host called RSH01 an RSH02
1x wildcard cert
I would like to my users to be able to either internal and external to use the same link, remote.mydomain.com since my internal domain is mydomain.local
What i have done so far.
Created a DNS Zone called remote.mydomain.com and added the following records there.
REMOTE, it points to web access server IP 192.168.1.31 ( same server for Gateway and Broker )
2x RDSFarm, one record points to RSH01 and the other to RSH02, 192.168.1.32 and 33
Gateway, the record points to 192.168.1.31 ( same servers as broker and web access)
Broker, the record points to 192.168.1.31 ( same servers as web access and gateway)
i have set the gateway manager the following
Edited the deployment RD Gateway to remote.mydomain.com
Installed the wildcert for all the roles, *.mydomain.com in all 4 roles
created Manage Local computer groups and added both RSH01 and 02, RDSFarm record, remote record, gateway record and broker record
linked the allowed resources with the policy and users ( also tried allow users to connect to any resources )
configure the gateway in the RD Gateway farm
Configured the IIS to
auto redirect
and the DefaultTSGAteway under Pages to remote.mydomain.com
Also I used the Set-PublishName (http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Change-published-FQDN-for-2a029b80) to change it to broker.mydomain.com
Now, the issue I have is, when users either internally or externally try to launch a RemoteApp they get the error.
RemoteApp Disconnected
This computer cant connect to the remote computer.
Try connecting again.
To overcome this error I did the following:
Set-PublishName to RDSFarm.mydomain.com ( it is using the round robin to get to the session host servers)
There is two problem with this setup.
I no longer can shadow the users under Connections in the broker ( it seems to be bypassed )
I get certificate mismatch due the servers names
What I would like to achieve is to fix both problems above.
Thanks for any advice in advance.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Initially check that you have applied external used FQDN of server under Server name in RD Gateway Deployment properties and used Bypass RD Gateway for local address.
Please try to perform the steps
• Create a new DNS zone, .COM to allow split-brain DNS (so that internal clients can resolve external names internally)
• Create a relevant DNS entry in the aforementioned zone to point to the RDS environment’s internal IP address
• Create a relevant DNS entry in external DNS to point to the firewall which is publishing RDS’s external IP address
• Use the following script to change the FQDN of the RDP files provided by RD Web Access / RemoteApp and Desktop connection feed
Change published FQDN for Server 2012 or 2012 R2 RDS Deployment
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Change-published-FQDN-for-2a029b80
In addition, for shadow related issue you can use the server in administrative mode use mstsc /shadow command and check the result.

RDS 2012 R2 RemoteApp from NetShare

Hello.
We have a new RDS 2012 R2 Server.
The Problem is our ERP Software has to be started from a network share. I find out that it is not possible to publish a Application with the Servermanager which is on a netShare
So i want to try it with PowerShell, but evertime i try it i get the following error message
New-RDRemoteApp -CollectionName COLL_NAME -DisplayName APPNAME -FilePath \\SERVER\APP.EXE -IconPath \\SERVER\APP.EXE
New-RemoteApp : A Remote Desktop Services deployment does not exist on RDS2012SERVER This operation can be
performed after creating a deployment. For information about creating a deployment, run "Get-Help Set-VDIDeployment" o

At line:1 char:1

Same with
get-rdremoteapp -collectionname "COLL_NAME" -connectionbroker RDS2012SERVER | Format-List
We just used a default Deployment with a Single Server.
Anyone an idea?
Thanks for the Help!

use
Import-Module remotedesktopservices
then try the commands again
also, when using -connectionbroker parameter, use FQDN for broker, not netbios name.
also ensure powershell is opened as administrator and the user you log onto the machine has admin permissions on the broker.

RDS 2012-PUBLISING REMOTEAPPS WITH VIRTUAL DESKTOP SESSION

Hello, I deployed a RDS 2012 VIRTUAL DESKTOP SESSION FARM.
Is it possible publish a REMOTEAPPS with Virtual Desktop Session?, I only find information with Remote Desktop Session
Thanks
Regards

Hi,
Seems this is not the possible scenario for deployment, we need to have Session based deployment as both virtual desktop session and session based deployment differs from other.
Thanks.

RDS 2012 R2 RemoteApps ColorDepth

Hello,
Is it posible to change the maximum color depth per pixel for RemoteApps? or Collections?
or do i have to use GPO to accomplish this for the whole Server? Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Remote Session Environment
Thanks for the answers!

Hi,
RDP 8.0/8.1 connections are always 32 bit color depth. For old RDP client versions you may connect as low as 16 bit.
For Server 2012 R2 it is preferred that you connect using a RDP 8.1 client.

How to disable Outlook for checking for IMAP/POP3 Certificate Name Mismatch?

I have outlook clients that are connected to an IMAP/POP3 server that's off-site provided by company A.
Company A requires me to enter imap.companya.com for imap server address and 993 for the port.
I must also enable SSL for the connection.
When I do this, Outlook pops up an error message (shown below), that must be reacted to every time it checks for mail.
The reason is that the certificate is for myserver.companya123.com and that's different than imap.companya.com but company A wont change it. They said I need to disable my email programs certificate check so it doesn't keep prompting
me. Now I can do this with my iphone, and other email programs without incident. But I cannot find where to disable it in outlook.
If I change the imap server address in my account settings for outlook to instead use myserver.company a123.com, outlook can't connect and as the vendor said I must use imap.companya.com as the imap server address.
I need to be able to connect via SSL (so nobody can swipe my password over the wire) but not have to react 1000x a day to the certificate warnings.
I don't want to use Eudora, or another email client that allows me to easily disable the warning. I want to use outlook. How do I set outlook so it doesn't keep popping up these certificate server name mismatch warnings?
I spent days searching for a fix, and it seems there are fixes via the registry for just about every type of certificate issue, but NOT THIS PARTICULAR ONE.
I am hoping someone knows exactly what I am talking about and knows of a easy fix. I must use SSL so please don't tell me to disable SSL.
What I need is to disable outlook from presenting that alert. That's what I need to do. No other solution will suffice. I hope outlook does not have a product limitation that prevents such a thing from being done. I am ok with a registry fix if need be, but
being able to disable outlook from presenting certificate name mismatch alerts is critical. Hope its possible! Thanks!

Hi,
I would suggest we try the registry key mentioned in this
article (Method 4) to configure Outlook to allow the connection to the mismatched domain name, and see if it works:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\<var>xx</var>.0\Outlook\AutoDiscover\RedirectServers
Let me know if this doesn't work.

Server Name in Certificate

Hi!
We renewed our Exchange 2010 SSL Certificate from Godaddy and followed the document provided by Godaddy to change the internal names of our Exchange Server URLs to external names but we are still getting error about the internal server name mismatch
when our users open outlook internally. Can we have the correct and complete procedure to change Exchange Server settings for this purpose?
Thanks.

How do you configure a farm name in RDS 2012?

I understand Remote Desktop Services has undergo some drastric changes.
How do you configure a farm name in RDS 2012? Or is the concept around farm name changed in another concept?
Although I have imported a certificate on the RDCH withe the farm name I want to use. When I click on a RemoteApp on the RD Web Access portal, it does not connect to the right farm name.
Boudewijn Plomp, BPMi Infrastructure & Security

You don't. You create a collection. A client connects to the Connection Broker and then is redirected to the collection it is connecting to. The collection name is embedded in the connection file that the client downloads from RDWeb or
the RDWeb feed.
A collection is basically at least one RDSH server (for session based desktops) or one virtual machine (virtual machine based desktops).

Server 2012 R2 Remote Desktop Connection Broker, Server Name Change.

We have a server that was the connection broker, We changed its name and now the connection broker wont recognize the new name. It continutes to want the old server. Unfortunately we cant change it back. Is there a fix for this?
We tried the powershell command but it doesnt see the old server name and errors out.

Hi,
Changing the name of a RD Connection Broker server is not supported. If you are able to remove RD Connection Broker Role Service and install a new RDS deployment you may be able to get it working again (with perhaps a few registry fixes),
but you will lose all of the configuration data associated with your deployment. If you have a very basic RDS deployment it may not be a big deal to recreate the collections, configure settings, publish
RemoteApps, etc., as they were before.
Another potential option if you were able to temporarily change the name back would be to switch to HA mode with the database stored on the local server (in SQL Express), add another RDCB server, remove RDCB from the original (leaving the SQL Express database
still functional), rename the server, add it back as a RDCB server, then remove RDCB from the second server. I have not tried this procedure but at first glance I believe it should work, although it may be a bit complicated if you are not well versed
with 2012 R2 RDS.
If this is a small environment you may want to consider backing up any data on the servers and then reinstalling all of the RDS servers from scratch.
It is possible to manually fix the issue you are seeing by editing the RDMS database, editing the registries of all the RDS servers, and other related tasks, however, I would not suggest it due to the complexity.

RDS 2012 RemoteApp - Passing Parameters

Windows 2012 R2, RDS 2012, Single server configuration trying to get an remote application to accept the additional parameters to run at desktops.
Here is the command line that is needed to be run:
C:\infor\facts78\pvx\pxplus.exe *plus\cs\client –arg 192.168.110.12;10000 IN4WDX
in the remote app I have entered the following:
General:
RemoteApp program location:
C:\infor\facts\pvx\pxplus.exe
Parameters:
Always use the following command-line parameters:
*plus\cs\client –arg 192.168.110.12;10000 IN4WDX
The program starts on the remote computers, but the parameters are not being passed properly. Am I missing something special to get these to pass through. I have tried putting quotes around the parameters,
but it made no difference.
The software vendor demo's the software via an rdp desktop. I was hoping to use the remote app feature instead of the virtual desktop.

Hi Benny,
Initially please confirm whether the software is compatible to use with RemoteApp. Also the provided command line seems to be little invalid, please provide with specified full location and verify. You can check the related article for information.

RDS 2012 R2 - Outlook - RemoteApp - Credentials Window Hidden

We have deployed a 2012 R2 RDS Farm with RemoteApp(s) published via RDWEB but have encountered an issue with Outlook.
The application launches and operates correctly but when the users are required to authenticate with the Exchange Server the credentials dialogue window is not visible.
If I access Outlook via an RDP session directly on the server desktop, the credentials box pops up and can be populated accordingly.
It appears that when Outlook is launched as a RemoteApp the credentials popup window is hidden/no visible.
Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Clickonce in the RemoteApp RDS 2012 R2

Hi Folks,
Searching information for applications ClickOnce, in RDS 2012 R2, in Remote Desktop Services Blog, I read these applications can't published as RemoteApp programs directly, they can now be installed and run from their hosting website through a web browser such
as Internet Explorer published as a RemoteApp program.
Exist another form in the solve is the challenge?
I can solve these challenge using RDS combined with App-v.
Suggestions?
Thanks a lot!
Wilsterman Fernandes

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Yeah, you can try to use Clickonce application to install on App-v server combined with RDS and then provide the path for application to use by the user through Internet Explorer. Also you can get ClickOnce app to work by installing on session host with admin
rights ad then copied the shortcut to the redirected start menu. After that user can access via full desktop method.
