Remote desktop to windows using vpn

I am unable to remote desktop my window based office pc from my mac book pro using VPN.
I even tried to install rdp , but no luck.Please respond asap.Thanks.

Try TSclientX. I got so sick and tired of MS RDP and the license crap. I mean, it comes bundled with Office, and still stops working every few weeks.
TSclientX just works.

Ctrl+Alt+End in Remote Desktop Running Windows XP with VMWare Fusion

I am using remote desktop on Windows XP in a VMWare virtual machine on my MacBook Pro. When the remote computer I'm connecting to times out and locks the screen, I need to send ctrlaltend to get back to the login dialog to unlock the screen (ctrlaltdel gets processed by the local windows box and never passed through so ctrlaltend is the appropriate sequence in remote desktop). Only one problem ... my MacBook Pro keyboard doesn't have an End key (or any other key that maps to it as far as I can tell) ... neither does the bluetooth wireless keyboard I use. So how do I send ctrlaltend? Anybody else run into this and find a satisfactory solution short of disconnecting remote desktop and logging in all over again?

That's weird.. I use RDC on my Vista's VM all the time and Ive never encountered this issue.
Try running the RDC in full screen, so that the Ctrl-Alt-Del will go to the RDC.
You can close the RDC window, and change the Options "Send Windows Combination Key" either to the RDC or the VM, or while the RDC in full screen.

Start remote desktop from windows lock screen

Is it possible to invoke remote desktop from the lock screen of a host machine without interfering with any active session on that host machine? The host machine might have been locked by someone who had just walked away from it or the host machine may
be being used remotely by its regular user. But despite this i would like to use it to run a remote session to my regular machine.

Hi,
The answer is no, Lock screen aims to protect user's profile and system resources securitry, Remote desktop need to use system rescoures, such as Printer, Drives, and so on. Therefore, it's impossible to start remote desktop from Widnows lock screen.

Remote Desktop to Windows 8 (in Azure) using a Windows Live Account

This took me a while to find this answer so posting it again in case it help anybody and also perhaps somebody has a suggestion of a better way to do it.
I spun up a Windows 8 Pro VM in Azure (using MSDN subscription) which gives me a local account to access it with via RDP. No problems there.
I want to use a Microsoft Account on this VM instead of a local account however, because I want to sync my OneDrive (reason: I have a lot of data in the Cloud via backup programs like Carbonite and CrashPlan that I want to move to my OneDrive as it
has unlimited space now, but don't want to use home or work network for that move as it will take months to move it all about. Cloud-to-Cloud initial data move seemed like it would be quicker hence I am doing it in Azure.)
I can't use OneDrive with the local account no matter what I tried so I had to log in as a Microsoft account.
I tried adding my Microsoft Account to this VM, making it Administrator and then switching the local account to that one but this process failed (even tried different accounts, one without 2-factor auth. enabled: nothing.)
I also tried RDPin in using the MicrosoftAccount\[email protected] rather than convert or link the local account but that didn't work either. "Your credentials didn't work." Even trying with just the email address didn't work. Nor did using
an app password (I have 2-factor enabled of course.)
The only way I was able to log in was to:
Under System properties of the Windows 8 Pro VM, under Remote tab uncheck "Allow connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication"
I follered these instructions to create and edit an RDP file on my local pc:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/941641
Once I connected from my local pc with the modified RDP file to the Windows 8 Pro VM in Azure, I was prompted for the user to log in as by the VM, allowing me to select the Microsoft Account I had previously added instead of the local account which looked
the same as if you do it physically at the machine. This had not happened before and once I did, everything was fine after that :-)

Hi,
Please use the original RDP file in another computer and install the certificate. And then use the new RDP for test

Using drag and drop in remote desktop on windows server 2008

we running an application on windows server 2008 terminal services .. this application was support drag and drop functionality .. i understand that terminal services on windows 2008 is supported to drag and drop but is not happening !! even when i run remote desktop connection on this server the drag and the drop is not working !
i need to enable the drag and drop for windows 2008 terminal services ..
Thanks in advance

Hello Ayman,
If your requirement is to drag and drop files between local and remote sessions, Danny is right. Drag-and-drop feature is not supported in Windows Server 2008-based Terminal Server, which is a by-design behavior hard-coded in the current version of the Remote Desktop Protocol.
As a workaround, I recommend you to use copy-and-paste function instead of drag-and-drop. To enable the copy-and-paste between local and remote session, please enable the clipboard redirection in Windows Server 2008-based RDC. (In Windows Server 2003 environment, local drive redirection is needed.)
Hope it helps. Thanks.
Best Regards,
Lionel Chen

Can I use Remote Desktop Connection (windows server 2008) even if no user is logged in?

I'm configuring a Server, running Windows Server 2008, to be accessed remotely. Suppose no user is logged in in the server (if it was just turned
on, for instance). Can I use the "Remote Desktop Connection" feature to log in remotely in this case? Or is it always necessary to have a user locally logged in, to remotely log in to one of the users available?

If its a fresh installation, RDM might not work at first.
1. You need to check firewall and allow Remote Desktop. To be specific, communication to port 3389 TCP
2. Right click My Computer --> Properties --> Remote tab
Enable Remote Desktop
Allow connections to this computer
Click users and grant the permissions for the users. By default, Administrators do have the permission. An also, the users who are members of the 'Remote Desktop Users' security group also have the permission

Are you using Apple Remote Desktop? If so, what VNC application do you have running on the Windows system?

Remote Desktop and Windows 8.1

I may not have this in the correct form area, and if so, I apologize.
I have Windows Sever 2012 datacenter running and until about a week ago, from my Windows 8.1 (with Update), I could remote into the unit with remote desktop connection.
Now, when I try the window pops up that a session on my computer is already in progress (the Windows 8.1 says this).
I can remote ok from the 8.1 to other servers and other PCs.
I can remote from other PCs into the Server 2012.
I can EVEN remote into the Server 2012 from the 8.1, BUT I have to use the IP address of the server in the remote connection box.
Same subnet, same domain. Worked fine until about two weeks ago and started after no updates or such. Can ping to and from both units by both name and IP with no issue.
Please advise and thank you!

Need more information for the troubleshooting:
How you start remote desktop? Shortcut or "mstsc" command?
Try command and post result:
mstsc /v servername /admin
or
mstsc /v servername /console
Have you checked the server, is there undisconnect console session on it?

HELP - Remote Desktop and Windows? Is it possible? I need your thoughts...

I am currently trying to set up a connection between my MacBook and my Windows XP PC. I have Leopard 10.5.3 and Windows XP. I want to set up the connection to my PC so I can use my Remote Desktop to control/observe/receive files from my PC to my MacBook. So far its been going well, I was searching on Google for some answers, and I read something about VNC Viewer and Remote Desktop. I am not sure how this works but I just want Remote Desktop to work with my PC. So I was just wondering if anyone here can help me out, or if anyone here has any suggestions/ideas. Thanks.

You've probably figured this out by now, but you can't use Remote Desktop with XP Home. It only works with XP Pro. As a free alternative, you should be able to run a VNC server on the XP machine, and a VNC client on the Mac, and access that way. A brief decription can be found here: http://lifehacker.com/software/feature/geek-to-live--how-to-control-your-home-co mputer-from-anywhere-125607.php (Ignore the parts about opening ports on your router to the internet--this is best used only on local network, unless you get more complicated.) If you do want access over the net, perhaps its better to go with a commercial service such as pcAnywhere or GoToMyPC is an easier route.

Remote Desktop and Windows XP

Can I use Apple Remote Desktop to connect to my Windows XP machine?

I'm not sure if Apple Remote can, but
Microsoft offers a free program called Remote Desktop Connection so you can do just that.

Remote Desktop To Windows Server Very Slow

I have OS X 10.6 running on a MBP and a problem that seems to be growing worse over time. I am using Remote Desktop (both CoRD and Microsoft Remote Desktop) to gain access to remote servers. One is a Windows Server 2008, the others are Windows Server 2003. Initially all was fine, but over the last 2 months access to the W2K server has crawled to a halt. Now, when accessing the other servers I'm having the same issue. I have tried different clients for remote access, used different high speed Internet connections (FIOS, a private network) and the result is the same. Very, very slow connections.
I have also tried using a different login on the laptop to no avail.
I booted Windows on my MBP using Parralels Desktop and tried using Windows RDC to the same servers; that works fine. In fact, I can access the servers very quickly using my iPhone's Remote Access software using the same Internet connection (home WiFi) as my MacBook Pro.
So I can only assume it's an issue with OS X 10.6, since different devices using the same Internet connection can make a much faster connection. But I can't find any similar posts on the issue.
Any ideas are appreciated!

Hi Jason,
From the error message, it seems that take time to load the user configuration properly from the server and then the network connection was slow. Please refer to following article
and check if help you to troubleshoot slow logon.

Remote Desktop Connection - Windows Network Level Authentication

Hi
I'm trying to find a piece of Remote Desktop "Manager" software for Mac which supports Network Level Authentication (NLA). When NLA is enabled on a Windows Server I am unable to connect via CoRD or Royal TSX.
The reason I say "Manager" is because I have many, many windows servers I need to connect to and so I like to use software such as the above to save a list of all the servers for ease of access - this saves me having to type in the name of the server each time.
At the moment, for those servers with NLA enabled, I have to fire up Remote Desktop Connection for Mac and enter the name. I realise I could save this each time but then I would have LOADS of shortcuts.
Any ideas/proposals on pieces of software that can cater for this?
Thanks!

Hi!
Royal TSX actually supports NLA but you have to use the FreeRDP plugin instead of CoRD and enable the setting in the advanced settings of your RDP connection.
cheers,
felix
