Remote Desktop "Bypass RD gateway server for local addresses" no longer working in Windows 8

Hi,
After installing windows 8, it seems like the "Bypass RD gateway server for local addresses" is no longer working.
In Windows 7, when the option is checked, I could have the server name set always and the client will automatically detect whether to use the RD gateway or not. For example, from my house, if I am connecting to a computer at my work, which requires
the RD gateway, it will automatically pops up the dialog for authentication method. However, if I connect to a computer in my home network, it will just automatically connects without asking authentication for the RD gateway.
However, after installing windows 8, this does not seem to work as expected anymore. The option is checked but the Windows Security dialog pops up in both situations and so i have to either save the rdp file locally and pin it to the taskbar or switch between
disabling and enabling the RD gateway whenever I need to connect to different machines.
Is this a regression in Windows 8? Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?
Thanks

Another way to resolve this issue for me, beside of configuring RDP to connect directly to server also on unmanaged network, will be to turn the "wifi" subnet in a managed network, as the "wired" subnet is.
The differences between thoses to subnets, dynamically assigned by the same DHCP server, are:
The "wifi" is in a private IP range, the "wired" is in a public IP range
There's an ACL on the "wifi" subnet, not on the "wired"
The next step is to compare frames send/received when on the two networks. Something will likely tell for the network to be managed.
Beside, I'm still searching informations about NLA, which is responsible for setting a nework as managed or not.
Here are some clues:

Bypass Proxy for Local Addresses

All-
With the new 2.0 software, I am now able to connect my 3G iPhone to the WiFi network at work. The network uses an authenticated proxy to get external access. I can access external sites just fine now, but I can't see internal sites. The proxy settings on my work desktop give me the option to "bypass proxy server for local addresses".
Is there any way to do this on an iPhone?
Right now I need to make a choice between access only internal sites or only external sites.
Thanks!

While not wanting to be a total weenie, ME TOO
After a bit of searching, the best we're going to be able to do right now is use a Proxy Auto-Config (.pac) file. I'm drawn to this conclusion from combining a lot of web searches with a peek at the "iPhone and iPod touch Enterprise Deployment Guide, Second Edition" (available at http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Enterprise_DeploymentGuide.pdf, or via the Apple iPhone Enterprise support page at http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/enterprise/.
Setting the PAC file using the iPhone v2.x software is pretty direct - click the little arrow next to the network you want to configure, scroll down to the bottom where the proxy settings live. Choose "Auto" and enter the Auto-config URL.
That's the good news. The bad news is that I'm not entirely sure what that entails w.r.t. using one with the iPhone software. I'm not entirely clever enough to create such a file nor am I clever enough to know how to stick such a file onto my iPhone. I'm going to run this around my local team to see what they can come up with. If they come up with a solution (and it's simple enough for me to do AND explain), then I'll post a follow-up. Until then, good luck to you AND if you figure something out feel free to share with everyone else.

JRE proxy bypass for local addresses always bypasses proxy

Hi all,
I'm currently dealing with an issue with the proxy configuration in java.
Situation: I need a proxy server to connect to the internet, and I have some addresses configured in Internet Explorer that bypass the proxy.
example of the way I configured it : *.google.com;212.115.*;62.69.179.198
The address that I am trying to reach is not in the bypass list, or in any of the excluded ranges in the bypass list.
Initially I had java configured using browser settings. I thought it did not pick up the browser settings at all.
However after configuring the proxy manually in java it was still not working.
During the research I came to the conclusion that as soon as I enable the "bypass proxy server for local addresses" in Internet Explorer, or manually in java.
The JRE client automatically bypasses the proxy and is always using "proxy=direct" . As soon as I disable that feature it starts using the proxy server.
I have no idea why this is happening ?

Your message was an eye opener for me. Thanks!
You were right, that option shouldn't be enabled. During testing I got confused and was told that option needed to be enabled to enable the exception list.
But that was a stupid assumption.
I disabled the option bypass proxy for local addresses and just filled in the exception list and now it works again.

How to know whether bypass proxy for local address is enabled in browser

Can anyone help me in finding out whether the check box "bypass proxy server for local address" in Internet explorer (Tools->Internet options->Connections->LAN Settings) is enabled from java plug in.
In my applet application if that checkbox is enabled then i have to throw a message saying that the checkbox is enabled.
Thanks in Advance

We have been in discussions with Microsoft over the last few days on this issue - which is seen with Outlook 2007 versions onwards. Extract from resolution communication from Microsoft:
The issue you have raised is known as it has been reported and when you have a proxy set in Internet Explorer and “Bypass proxy settings for local addresses”, Outlook will attempt to connect to Office 365 directly – like the bypass rule would apply.
Because the direct connection is blocked in the Firewall, Outlook needs to have the connections going in Timeout before attempting to connect using the Proxy.
Your network trace proves the issue.
Microsoft have scheduled a fix for Outlook 2010 in February 2014 cumulative update. A fix for Outlook 2013 will also follow, but Outlook 2007 will not be addressed because it is in Extended Support.
There are two possible workarounds for this behaviour:
First, and I wouldn’t recommend it, is to allow Direct traffic through the Firewall to Office 365.
The advantage of this approach is that it will be done centralized and it will impact everyone immediately.
Information about the O365 IP addresses
There are two downsides to this behaviour:
1. First you need to maintain the Firewall exceptions as IP from O365 server can change without notice
2. Second, winhttp traffic may go through both proxy and direct and this can cause unforeseen behaviour.
The second approach is to use a proxy pac instead of manually setting in the proxy and the exceptions.
The advantage is that you will have centralized method to control how winhttp traffic goes and the issue will not be experienced anymore.
If a single pac does not be fit, you can configure proxy pac files for each site requirements and use an IIS server to store it.

"do not use proxy server for local (intranet) addresses" IEM setting

Hi, i would like to find out where can i find the following setting in GPO which used be found in IEM.
"do not use proxy server for local (intranet) addresses" Enabled/Disabled
as currently im setting the IE proxy exception list via GPP, i don't see that option.

Hi,
As you notice that when we use GPP Internet Setting item to configure bypass proxy servers, there is no "do not use proxy server for local (intranet) addresses" option in GPP Internet
Setting item. However, as suggested by zanderol24’s reply, we can use bypass proxy server for local addresses option under
Proxy server to achieve the same function.

Bypass Proxy for Local Addresses - Office 365 connection/ Outlook 2010

This is a strange one. Connectivity to Office 365 within our netwotk works fine although very slow for outlook 2010 client to initially connect. Once connected, it works ok. I have done a netwotk trace using netmon to see if i can identify
the reason for the slow startup (2 mins minumum for profile to load and for outlook to connect to exchange). The trace tell me that my local pc tries to make a direct connection to the office365 external IPs first, then tries the TMG proxy. Once it hits the
proxy, it kicks into life and works.
So it looks to me like it thinks the external IP address of office 365 is an internal address and spends it time trying all the ip addresses until it trys the proxy. At this point, the
Bypass Proxy Server for Local Addresses is ticked.
As soon as i untick this box, all traffic heads directly to the proxy and of course it connects like lighting. The exchange settings proxy is set in outlook for "on fast networks, connect using HTTP first, then connect using TCP/IP" (tick
is on) and the same for slow networks.
I cant for the life of me work out why it tries to connect directly to the external IPs first and not connect via TMG until i untick the
Bypass Proxy Server for Local Addresses
Would love any ideas that may assist.

REMOTE DESKTOP SERVICES CLIENT ACCESS LICENSES FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS SERVER 2012 STANDARD AND DATACENTER

I am using a window 7 professional service pack 1 and I purchase REMOTE DESKTOP SERVICES CLIENT ACCESS LICENSES FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS SERVER 2012 STANDARD AND DATACENTER. but the seller did not send me any installation CD or instruction
on how to use it.
Please how can I use it on my window 7 professional service pack 1.
Thank you.

Though Bill is absolutely correct for most CALs, Remote Desktop Services does have its own special licensing server. I haven't installed one on 2012, yet, but here is a step-by-step guide for 2008.

Here is a lab guide for 2012 -

But, the explanation of your environment begs the question - what are you trying to do? You say you have a desktop OS and you are talking about Windows Server products. In that light, your question does not make a lot of sense.

Remote Desktop Service Manager - configure permissions for Remote Desktop Users to Send Message, Disconnect, Logoff

Hello, dear colleagues.
We are using Windows Server 2012 R2 as Remote Desktop Server. Also use Windows Server 2008 R2 with Remote Desktop Service Manager to control RDS user sessions (Send Message, Disconnect, Logoff, Query Info).
Send Message, Disconnect, Logoff options works only for users in Administrators group.
I can't to configure permissions for Remote Desktop Users, specific user or AD group.
To set permissions I'm running RDS Host Configuration on Windows Server 2008 R2 and connect to Windows Server 2012 R2. Then double-click
RDP-Tcp, Security tab, add specific user account , AD group or configure
advanced permissions
for Remote Desktop Users.
But, as I sad above, these options works only for users in Administrators group. How to make it work for Remote Desktop Users or specific user, AD group?
Thanks.
P.S. If move specific user from Remote Desktop Users group to Administrators group on
Windows Server 2012 R2 - it works.

Hi,
You can prevent administrators from changing the permissions for a connection by applying the
Do not allow local administrators to customize permissions Group Policy setting.
This Group Policy setting is located in Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Security
Apart there is one command with which you can set the permission for that check the related
article. Additionally checkthis
thread for more detail.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Remote Desktop and Snow Leopard Server

What is the best way to use Remote Desktop with Snow Leopard Server?
I purchased a mac mini with snow leopard server and Remote desktop so I can easily manage my 11 computers, install and upgrade software etc. etc.
The mac mini server will basically be nothing but a server.
I will use as my main computer a mac pro. Do I need to install Remote Desktop on the server and on my mac pro? What is the best way to deploy the services of Remote desktop and mac os x server?

You install Apple Remote Desktop on the machine you want to control from. In this case, install on your Mac Pro. All you have to do on the clients (controlled Macs) is enable remote management in the System Preferences under Sharing. Just make sure that all your controlled Macs are up to date on their ARD version (v3.3.2) which can be taken care of from Software Update.

AddressProvider for local-address

I was wondering if it is possible to use the AddressProvider for local-address. For <unicast-listener> there are sub elements <adddress> and <port>. Is it possible to use address provider to set this value?
I understand the address-provider can be used under the <well-known-address> to provide list of all wka nodes dynamically. Wanted a similar option to set the local port as well.
Edited by: 798623 on Oct 5, 2010 9:12 AM

I'm afraid there is no "pluggable" capability for selecting local hostname and port.
Can you elaborate a bit more as to why you would need this capability?

Hyperlinks to local files no longer work

Hyperlinks to local files no longer work in Adobe Reader 11.0.1, but they did prior to the update. We have verified this on multiple machines.
We create a document in Word, add multiple relative links to other files on our local computer, and save as a PDF. The links worked in previous versions, but no longer work in 11.0.1. Does anyone else have this problem?
Links to external websites still work, it's only the links to other local files. We also tried opening the same file in Foxit Reader, and the links worked just fine. Only appears to happen in Adobe Reader 11.0.1.
This is a real pain in the ___!

Hi efrancen,
What exactly happens when you click on the hyperlink. Does it give a message that target was not foud. Can you share the PDF or this taget hyperlink.

Remote Desktop Session Host on Server 2012 not domain-joined

I have a server 2012 which is running Remote Desktop Session Host role without the Connection Broker like described here:
http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2833839
Now the client would like the Network Level Authentication (NLA) disabled. And since server 2012 does not have the Remote Desktop Session Host Configuration tool, I have to use the server manager console.
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/630cc818-69b0-4e1c-8d65-1b895b20e203/where-is-the-remote-desktop-session-host-configuration-tool-in-server-2012-?forum=winserverTS
But when I go to the remote Desktop Services of Server manager, it says “You are currently logged on as local administrator on the computer. You must be logged on as a domain user to manage servers and collections.”
So I tried finding some Powershell cmdlet could help me with the problem. I guess
Get-RDServer
or Set-RDSessionCollectionConfiguration would be the ones but I can’t seem to make them work.
Any help, or a hint that I going in the right direction or not?

Hi,
Have you configure the certificate for your server?
Add the user under Remote Desktop user local group, configure FQDN name of server. Please see that if we are using RDS server in workgroup then most of the tools provided to make managing/configuring RDSH servers easier in 2012 will not work in a workgroup
configuration including some PowerShell command. You can check the below article for information.

Hope it helps!

What do I need to be able to remote desktop into my pc server at work from my mac mini?

I just bought a new Mac Mini and I need to access my PC at work (Windows 7) through my work server. Is there a app or download avaible for this?

Microsoft has a version of Remote Desktop for the
Mac. It is available through the MacApp Store.
Reviews aren't all that great, but it is free so it
can't hurt to give it a shot.

Acrobat Pro XI, Server 2012 r2 Remote Desktop, cannot print until server reboot, No Pages Selected

Ever since we migrated to terminal services (remote desktop) this problem has plagued us.
We are a terminal services environment with 25 users.
Our version of Adobe is 11.0.10
I've believe I have traced the issue to temp files in \users\username\appdata\local\temp\XX
There are [email protected] files that the system locks.
Once those files are written out and the server locks them down the user cannot print .pdf files any longer.
ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS WORK PERFECTLY!
The only way to clear the situation is to reboot the server (not optimal).
And even then the problem reappears within a day.
I have read many different versions of this problem and tried many different solutions.
I have tried having the users go the advanced tab when printing and choose "print as image"
FAIL!
I have put a acroct.ini with the following parameters in the windows directory
[WinFntSvr]
TTToSysPrintDisabled=1
T1ToTTDisabled=1
FAIL!
I have tried to remove Microsoft security updates related to this issue and 3rd party fonts.
FAIL!
I've tried the "Disable Protected Mode at Startup"
FAIL!
I have rebuilt our print server with the latest drivers.
FAIL!
Since we deal with thousands of .pdf files on a daily basis this has become CRITICAL!
Please Help!

Small problem: how using "Remote Desktop" on Snow Leopard Server

Hello,
How can I login to the Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server from 2 different Macs ?
Before I bought my Mac Mini Server in July, I asked the Apple Support if Snow Leopard Server has the equivalent of the Windows Remote Desktop functionality. He told me that it is possible. He did not tell me how, but I believed him.
I cannot find it in the documentation. Only 1 person can use screensharing. But I need more than 1 person working on the Mac OS X Server.
I moved our Photo library to the Mac OS X Server. With filesharing it takes 5 minutes to start iPhoto on our client iMac ( 1Gbps network). That is unworkable. So, from more iMacs users have to login to the server and start iPhoto on the server.
Thanks for the solution.

As per Jason's reply, there are two Terminal Server products available for Mac OS X. I have been testing both, both work in the same sort of way and will allow multiple simultaneous users to connect.
The typical approach is to (obviously) first to install one of these Terminal Server programs on your server. Then you (ideally) need another server hosting your Mac network home directories, and it needs to share the network home directories via NFS rather than AFP.
Note: Due to the way Mac OS X handles mounting AFP shares, you cannot have two users using the same share at the same time as the login defines the privileged's and the first logins privileged's would not be suitable for the second user, this is also why you cannot use "Fast User Switching" with two network login accounts when using AFP.
So, a client uses an RDC client (e.g. the free Microsoft Remote Desktop Client) to connect to the Terminal Server, this initiates a network login which access the users home directory via NFS.
RDC client (Mac or PC) ------> Mac Terminal Server <------ Mac network home directories
I have not tried iPhoto, but have tried various other applications, e.g. FileMaker, AppleScript, Microsoft Office 2004, etc. and the only problem I have hit so far is that Visual Basic in Office 2004 generates errors but Word and Excel otherwise work. Remember Office 2008 does not support Visual Basic (i.e. Macros).
I would actually expect iPhoto to work for multiple users as long as you use NFS. Using NFS for network home directories rather than AFP has actually 'fixed' a couple of badly written applications that had problems with AFP based network home directories, e.g. Adobe Acrobat 9.
I am using Mac OS X 10.6.4 Servers.
