please let me know is any activity need to do on solaris server , so that its accessable on X- manager or cygwin.
Regards
GYan

Are you running with netsecurity enabled? If so, that shuts off most ports from external access, including XDMCP. You can disable netsecurity, or you can enable XDMCP explicitly.

Solaris 11 - after installation there is no remote desktop avaliable

Hi All,
I have the problem that after installation of Solaris Express on SPARC machine there is no available remote desktop. I am using Xmanager to connect to my server.
It works fine with Solaris 9 and 10.
Do you know what is the problem?
Thanks,
Daniel

I was installing Solaris Exrepss using JumpStart server running on Solaris 10. Solaris Express installed successfuly.
But there was no XServer running.
So I was enabling some services.
During the enabling services error message appers:
Jun 8 18:44:33 sun1 gdm[295]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0

Solaris Dektop über Windows Remote Desktop freigeben

Hallo,
ich habe folgende Frage:
Für eine Schulung für FachinformatikerInnen (AE und SI) zum Thema
Unix/Linux möchte ich den Solaris Desktop präsentieren.
Gibt es einen Client für Remote Desktop und welche Einstellungen
muss ich vornehmen, um ihn zu aktivieren?
Über Tipps und Ratschläge oder evtl. Alternativen (Xephyr-Freigabe)
würde ich mich freuen.
Gruß
Wolfgang
(Wolfgang Führer IT-Serivces & Training)

Um den Desktop zu deportieren gibt-es nur offiziell XDMCP und VNC.
Für VNC, schaue sie bitte dieses URL : Accessing X11 Display - Oracle Solaris 11.1 Desktop Administrator's Guide
Sie können auch den System/Preferences/Desktop Sharing Tool starten.
Für XDMCP, die Prozedur ist in den gleich Link als VNC aber unter How to Set Up VNC to Provide a Guest Graphical Login Abschnitt.
Und für RDP, bin nicht sicher dass ein Paket für Solaris gibt. Den Source Code ist hier : xrdp

Unable to enable remote desktop (XDMCP) after jumpstart Solaris 10 U9

Hi,
I have installed Solaris 10 U9 using the jumpstart.
I would like to have enabled remote desktop (XDMCP) after installation.
But Solaris 10 U9 has this option disabled:
# ps -ef | grep dt
root 858 450 0 04:56:05 console 0:00 grep dt
root 730 1 0 04:41:39 ? 0:00 /usr/dt/bin/dtlogin -daemon -udpPort 0
I have copied dt config files to /etc:
# mkdir /etc/dt/config
# cp -r /usr/dt/config/* /etc/dt/config/.
Then in /etc/dt/config/Xconfig I've uncommented and added port number:
Dtlogin.requestPort: 177
After reboot this change in Xconfig doesn't enable XDMCP.
Do you know what to change to have XDMCP enabled after jumpstart installation?
Thanks,
Daniel

By default xdmcp will start on udp port 0. normally it should listen on 177.
Try this. you should be able to login through xdmcp after this.
#svccfg -s cde-login setprop 'dtlogin/args=""'
#svcadm restart cde-login

Solaris remote desktop from Windows

Hi all i have windows xp and solaris 10 on the other machine...(home lan)
I want to make visual remote desktop connection to my solaris system...
do you know any effective tool for this?
thank you

Lion-OSeveral reasons where one of them being personal
taste ;-)
Next is versatility. Its pretty easy to setup an X
server, even in Windows these days, and as such you
hardly have to change anything on the Solaris part to
make this setup work. Which can be easier on your
part when it comes to patches and other updates.Thanks.
I had tried, not very hard, last week to setup X forwarding via SSH but couldn't find a free Windows X client to make it work. Cygwin is installed but perhaps I haven't fooled with it enough to find the way to make it happed. I'm sure my good buddy Google is knowledgeable on the subject once I know what questions to ask. ;)
My personal taste is for simple and secure and I'll likely follow your advice.
Thanks again!

Remote Desktop and Admintool

I am using Solaris 10x86
1-How to get admintool to work. I was told to smc but nothing happens.
I open a console then type smc then press enter.Where can I download the admintool only.
2-How can I remote desktop Unix-Windows XP Pro and vice versa.(Step by step please).
Thanks.

If you install NetSarang Xmanager 2.0
(there is a #day trial) on your windows box, you can connect to Solaris 10 without any config on the Solaris 10 end.
http://www.netsarang.com/
Just like "remote deskop" that windows uses.
If you havnet modified Solaris 10, and cant connect, try:
Login as a root.
Enable CDE login when system boot:
# /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -e [enter]
Reset the process:
# /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -reset
If you want to disable the CDE login setting, do the following:
# /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -d [enter]
If you dont want to purchase Xmanager 2.0 (after the trial expires), you could try installing RealVNC on Solaris 10, and the Real VNC viewer on Windows.
However Xmanager is the best way (dont need to modify Solaris), and seems to be the fastest.

IOS Remote Desktop app and computers connected to SBS 2008--can't get it to work

I can connect directly to the server without a remote resource in the IOS app.
But I'd like to be able to connect to computers in the office like we can through RWW. RWW works fine, but not from my phone. (Yes I can connect to the server and take over computers from the phone but I don't want other people in the office to log
into the server first!).
I can never get the remote resources section in the app to connect. I usually get "Unable to locate any remote resources for the URL". error in the resources section. I've tried a simple "https://remote.domain.com", "https://remote.domain.com:987",
etc.
We have a self-signed certificate. I can't think of anything in the server setup that is anything other than normal.
I can do direct connect using "Remote Desktop Connection" in windows 7. In the remote desktop server settings I just put remote.domain.com and "Ask for password (NTLM)" for the login method. Then on the general tab I have just the
simple computer name and the domain\username. That's all I had to setup to get that to work.
Any suggestions?

Hi Michael,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Have you setup RD Gateway server in your environment? Are you trying to access the RWW through it?
On server side you can choose “Bypass RD Gateway server for local addresses” under RemoteApp manager and check the result.
For more information, you can check below links for detail.

Is there a way to open the mic using apple remote desktop

Is there a way to open the mircophone channel using Apple Remote Desktop so I can listen on anything thats happening at my computer at home? If not is there another software that would work?
Also is there a way to use apple's software to control and watch a PC?

Is there a way to open the mircophone channel using Apple Remote Desktop so I can listen on anything thats happening at my computer at home? If not is there another software that would work?
You would have to launch software that would accept audio from the microphone and transmit it to you in some fashion. ARD does not transmit audio itself. Another remote control solution such as Timbuktu might transmit audio, so you could look into that, perhaps.
Also is there a way to use apple's software to control and watch a PC?
You can install a VNC server on the PC and ARD can then take control of the system. It can be tricky to find a VNC system that will work with ARD, though, so search this forum for "VNC" for possible options. One of the applications that support Microsoft's remote desktop architecture such as their own Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac or iTap Mobile RDP will probably work better, though.
Regards.

Remote Desktop Connection Manager can only open 6 sessions at a time on Server 2012

I am only able to open, and view thumbnails, for a maximum of 6 RDP sessions on my Server 2012 box at a time in Remote Desktop Connection Manager (RDCM). If I add more sessions I just get a variety of connection errors for the additional sessions. If I activate
a 7th session one of the existing 6 sessions goes off-line with a connection error message. Sometimes the error says 3334, sometimes the error says 0x8345000E, and sometimes it just says there is a connection error.
I have checked Group Policy on the server to ensure I don't have any settings restricting the number of RDP sessions.
In fact, I will often have 30 or 40 RDP simultaneous sessions opened, I am just not able to view them all in RDCM. I have seen reviews of RDCM with screenshots showing dozens of thumbnails so it seems to be something that's possible to do.
Are there any settings I should make on the server to allow RDCM to connect to more than 6 simultaneous RDP sessions?
Just to be clear, all these RDP sessions are running on the same server. Also, I am just using the trial license for Server 2012 and Remote Desktop Services right now. I don't think that should have an impact, but I wanted to be thorough.

Thanks Jakub for "corflags" info.
Unfortunatelly it doesn't work because running mRemoteNG.exe process in 64bit can't load MSTSC ActiveX component (referenced assemblies) because original files were assembled from 32bit dll [mstscax.dll]?
Error message when making RDP connection:
Could not load file or assembly 'Interop.MSTSCLib, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.
I was able to create new AxInterop.MSTSCLib.dll and Interop.MSTSCLib.dll assemblies from 64bit dll version and now it works with "AnyCPU":-)
http://www.filedropper.com/axinteropmstsclib-mremoteng
Using AxImp.exe and TlbImp.exe didn't worked for me because it creates assemblies in wrong namespace "MSTSCLib" instead of "Interop.MSTSCLib" (AxImp.exe) and TlbImp.exe for changing namespace generated many "marshaled errors"
so final .dll wasn't working.
Adding MSTSCAX.dll reference in Visual Studio directly created correct and functional assemblies. Who don't know how to create 64bit compatible assemblies or don't have Visual Studio, feel free to check linked file.
Hope it helps
P.S. Sorry for possible technical misinterpretation, I am not programmer so creating new assemblies was trial-error process...

Remote desktop connection caused host to lose a monitor and other settings

Hello
After a successful remote desktop login, on the host I can now no longer detect the 2nd monitor. Screen resolution on remaining monitor is off, it's gone over to use Microsoft Basic Display Adapter even though it was using the correct adapter previously.
Both previously working display adapters now show Code 12 error: "this device cannot find enough free resources that it can use". The system has also become very slow, when I right-click the desktop, it takes up to 30 sec for the menu to appear.
Anyone had a problem like this? I have restarted the computer several times, reverted system to a working state last week, done another successful remote desktop login/logout from my laptop to this computer.
Windows 8.1 Pro
Displays: Dell U2412M
Intel R HD Graphics 4600
Thank you in advance for any help/tips to help solve this problem!

This error message can also appear if the BIOS did not allocate enough resources to the device, I want to know how much RAM do you have on your computer, because the Display Adapter calls for extra RAM to run the monitor.
If you don’t have enough RAM to allocate, the monitor won’t start, that’s why the computer becomes very slow.
Here I suggest a possible solution:
Adjust the amount of memory dedicated to video/graphics. You can change that in BIOS. there might be an option in your PC's BIOS that lets you change the amount of system memory used for video/graphics.
You'll just need to find it in the BIOS, the BIOS options in the Advanced settings,
the option varies depends on the BIOS version
you can set the maximum memory that it can take to a lowest value.

Remote Desktop and Remote Access

I am a very new Mac user but have extensive PC experience. I work in the IT industry and I find the use of Remote Desktop very useful. How can I setup my Mac to be able to access it when I am not at home?

What machine and operating system do you wish to access it from?

Remote Desktop and remote USB scanner

Hello, We currently use NeatWorks to scan our company receipts and docs. Several of our employees access the NeatWorks database remotely, via a locally installed NeatWorks application, the connection we use to the file is the simple Finder 'Connect to Server'. Because NeatWorks is not networkable, we access it one at a time.
The problem is the Neatworks database is huge, it can take 20 minutes to load remotely.
Our solution to this would be to use Remote Desktop to access our server that has the application and database for a quick load. The problem is scanning.
Can Remote Desktop connect to the users local USB scanner so that the scans go directly to the remote database? If not, is there any other elegant solution to this remote scan problem?
We were hoping to find a networkable program to replace NeatWorks that wouldn't load the entire database, just an index perhaps.
Thanks a million for any input!

Can the NeatWorks application on the server, see, connect to the USB scanner device on the user end.
That would not be a function of Apple Remote Desktop. The NeatWorks software would need to have code to access a remote scanner, either natively or using the Scanner Sharing feature of Mac OS X 10.6 (if that will support the USB scanner you're using).

Remote Desktop and Doing System / Software Updates

I am new to Remote Desktop. I am starting to use it daily in my class room to share things with students and lock screens, etc. Is there an easy way to do system updates and software updates (adobe flash player, java, etc.) without having to manually log in to each machine? I have to believe there is a better way...could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Oh, my version of Remote Desktop is 3.7.2

Yosemite 10.10.1 Update - Can no longer connect to Windows Remote Desktop

I use Mac's VPN to create a PPTP VPN connection to our Windows Server at work. I access the Server using the Microsoft Remote Desktop App from the App Store (v 8.0.10). After upgrading to Yosemite, I could get the VPN to connect but could not get the Microsoft App to connect to the Server. I fixed this problem by deleting the VPN Connection and setting it up new from scratch. It worked fine until the 10.10.1 upgrade. Now it no longer works and my previous fix does not work. I also noticed that I totally lose internet connectivity when the VPN is connected - Safari and Outlook Windows app show no internet connection.
Microsoft App error is :
Unable to connect to remote PC. Please provide the fully-qualified name or the IP address of the remote PC, and then try again.
Please help this has broken with both Yosemite updates and now I am up a creek and unable to work remotely.
Thanks,

I've only one hint to you, cause I've mot on Mac-Server.
With 10.7 Apple have switched from Samba (maybe due to licence problems with GPL based stuff) to a own protocol called "XSMB"
This had caused problems with some NAS systems too.
Eventually someone have a glue to solve that, as several users have problems with SMB shares since that.

Macbook Pro remote desktop unable to connect to my office PC. Genius Bar told me the only solution was to wipe my Mac. Really??

I work remotely using my Macbook Pro (OS X 10.5.8) to connect to my office PC. I have always had issues using my "computer name" with the RDC but have no problem when using the IP address. Two weeks ago my company upgraded their server and ever since I have been unable to access the server. My coworkers (who use Macs) are not having the same problems as me. My IT guy was able to connect using my Mac, his security clearance and IP address. However, I no longer have the option of using the IP address to log in - per my IT guy. My IT guy is a PC guy so he suggested that I take my computer to Apple to see whats blocking me.
I met with Apple support at the Genius bar yesterday and was told basically it could be a problem with my computer and I needed to wipe it clean and start over. This was the proposed solution to the problem but the Mac guy I spoke with didn't seem completely sure this would solve / is the cause of the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions for figuring out what the root problem is prior to me wiping my Mac? Has anyone had issues working with remote desktop connection from their Mac connecting to a PC?
I appreciate any help possible!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
There are no songs on your iPod, right (since it was restored)?
Make sure the software on your computer is up to date...
iTunes
iPod Updater
Update iPod's Software
Also, try connecting the iPod via a different USB port.
You may want to try putting the iPod in Disk Mode prior to connecting it and see if you are able to restore it (while it is in Disk Mode)...
Putting iPod into Disk Mode
Finally, if you can't get the iPod to restore, then try connecting it and opening My Computer. Does the iPod show up in My Computer? Try right clicking it and going to Format. Does anything happen?
