[SOLVED] Installing remote desktop in wine?

I have been trying to get rdesktop to connect to virtualsites, but I wasn't able to. Look at my post here:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=51097
So now I installed wine and tried to install the remote desktop client with it, but I get this error:
Remote Desktop cannot be installed because your operating system already has a built in version. See all Programs\Accessories\Communications\Remote Desktop Connection on your start menu.
If I have a built in version I can't find it. I really need some way to connect to virtualsites.umich.edu. Thanks

I would try to change the version of windows set in the wine configuration to Windows 2000 as XP and later are supposed to have Microsoft's Remote Desktop Client built-in per default.

To install Remote Desktop Services User CAL on Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition with SP1

Dear Sir,
Presently we have installed Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition with SP 1. And now i would like to install Remote Desktop Services User CAL on this server. I have 25 digit product key of Windows Server
2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services User CAL (20). Downloaded this product key from our MSDN Subscriptions.
Kindly suggest me how to install (CAL server with product key that i have) and configure remote desktop services on my above existing server also how to point other server with my CAL server.
Thanks

Hi,
1. Install Remote Desktop Session Host and Remote Desktop Licensing Role Services using Server Manager.
2. Open RD Licensing Manager (licmgr.exe), Activate your server, then install your license
3. In RD Session Host Configuration (tsconfig.msc), set the Licensing mode to Per User and Specify your RD Licensing server name (itself). If you want you may configure these two settings via group policy setting instead. The path of the
group policy settings is Computer Configuration\ Administrative Templates\ Windows Components\ Remote Desktop Services\ Remote Desktop Session Host\ Licensing
4. You may point other RDSH servers to your RD Licensing server using RD Session Host Configuration or via group policy as mentioned above.
5. Optionally you may consider installing other Remote Desktop Role Services such as RD Gateway, RD Web Access, RD Connection Broker, etc.

Messages.app no longer connects to Jabber after App Store auto-installed Remote Desktop Update 3.8.2

Messages.app no longer connects to my company's Jabber server after App Store auto-installed Remote Desktop Update 3.8.2 (even though I never purchased that app). The Remote Desktop app can not be found anywhere on my machines.
I suspect the Remote Desktop update because Messages stopped connecting on my office MB Air after the update but still worked on my home iMac. Next day the iMac received the update and Messages stopped connecting on that machine too.
Messages attempts to connect for several minutes (it's been trying for 30 mins as I type this) and just hangs. Occasional I get the following error message:
Error: Messages lost the connection to the Jabber account 'account'. A network error occurred.
I've tried:
- Deleting and recreating the Jabber account in Messages.app
- Toggling on/off SSL (SSL required by our server)
- Toggling on/off auto detect server and port (port 5222 on our server)
- Deleting every plist, cache, etc., I could find in the Library for any IM client I've ever used
- Checked that Keychain trusts the Jabber server SSL certificate (it is a self signed cert)
- Tried connecting from three completely different networks including the company VPN
- Multiple PRAM resets
- Setup a Google Talk account in Messages - works fine
I'm at a loss...
Kurt

I installed and setup Adium. Adium works but Messages.app still does not connect to Jabber.

Guideline of installing remote desktop services in window server 2012 r2

Hi,
I tried to install remote desktop services in window server 2012, I joined my current domain ( in window server 2003).
During installation, it require me to promote my server to domain controller? This is one of the requirement for remote desktop services?
If I didnt join any domain, it prompt me I must join a domain.
Anyone can advise me? provide me a steps by steps guide will be perfect!
Thanks

Hi GP_IT001,
In your current network do you currently have a domain controller? You mentioned that you "had" a Domain Controller running Windows Server 2003.
Am I correct in thinking that you no longer have this server?
As this article mentions:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/f3d0543a-edab-4eb2-8360-3658a3351bb0/licensing-issue?forum=winserverTS
You will need a domain environment which means you'll need a server that is a domain controller, and I believe that it will also need to operate Windows Server 2012 or above. You could, if you wanted, setup a new server (virtual or physical) as a domain
controller and use that if you wish.

Install Remote Desktop Services Failed on Windows 2012 Server

I understand RDS is not recommended on DC due to security consideration. However since I want to play it at home, it is not much a concern. Such scenario works fine on Windows 2008 R2. But on Windows 2012, the RDS (session-based, have not
tried VDI, but expect same result) installation always fails and is incomplete on DC.
In \Administrative Tools\Terminal Services, I only have RD Licensing Diagnoser and RD licensing manager. The remote desktop service management service cannot be started (Error code: 0x88250001). Is there any extra configuration needed for RDS
working on Server 2012 DC or before the installation? Thanks.
Update: this issue has been solved in Windows 2012 R2 Server. According to
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rds/archive/2013/07/09/what-s-new-in-remote-desktop-services-for-windows-server-2012-r2.aspx
"Single server RDS deployment including Active Directory. We now support running our RD Connection Broker role service on the same physical instance as an Active Directory Domain Controller. In addition, we published
guidelines for how RD Session Host could be used without the RD Connection Broker."
The guidelines (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2833839/en-us) primarily apply to Windows 2012 Server.

Asinine. Simply Asinine. Microsoft took it out because of $GREED$.
RemoteDesktop has become so popular, they had to break it to make more money. Thats why they discontinued SmallBusinessServer.   If this practice is so tabooo... Why did MS go the opposite direction with SBS 2011 Premium Cal's? SBS2011
had DC, Exchange, RDS and Sharepoint,SQL, RemoteWebWorkplace, OWA all working in perfect harmony. It is an untrue statement then, that it was "allowed but not recommended"
Now you by Server2012 (core + two virtual) and its not enough for all this.
You need at least another $700 for another sever licence to have it all
and who knows if SQL will run on a DC, or Exchange, or R-DERP server. Another reacherous bridge to cross.
By far, the absloute worse release since Millennium. The product is not ready for production, we broke our rule of waiting until the first SP1 upgrade for this and Exchange 2013. Problems with USB drivers and networking running extreamly slow.
Our 2003 SBS server was at least three times as fast, and this server has SAS and SSD drives running. It can't get out of its own way, and IE10 is the most unstable piece of crap to come out of Redmond. Open wide and swallow - Mother Microsoft
knows whats best for you. YOU WILL EAT OUR SLOP AND LEARN TO LIKE IT.   Server2012 AKA "METRO-SERVER"
Now here I sit after 50 Hours back to back setting up a new R-DERP server 2012, AD, Have my RDP licences in my hand at $100 each, and WTH does Microsoft care if I install it on my DC. ITS MY DC. And the cost savings versus the "risk" was
previously MY decision.
Sure, I can install a couple of Virtual HyperV sessions but they are so tempremental to a power-outage in a small business its not worth it. I have to double up my server hard drive resources, buy a $800 battery backup unit and make sure to attach
the cable, and even then, if that Bi**H does not shut down properly, one bit goes awry in a VHD or VHDX file and you are screwed. Restore from lastnights backup and forget about todays work. Not to mention it will probably take a half day to try
to fix it, then recover it then tell the 30 users they lost a days worth of work.
HYPER-V is for test servers and has no place in a small (micro) business environment. 5-30 users.
Microsoft's solution, buy another server. Need Exchange? Buy another server or take the risky cheapskate route and spin up some VHD's. Might as well put a gun to your head and play russian roulette, at least you know you have a one in six
chance of failure. With MS, its a 100% failure for a dirty shutdown power loss, motherboard blows, memory goes corrupt in a few years, your conventional method of recovery is gone, and you have some upchucked VHD file to try to recover some of TODAYS
data from.
Screw server 2012 forever.
I will sell 2008 and SBS2011 Premium unitl it rots in hell like XP (of which there is NOTHING wrong with for the average, WORD, EXCEL, OUTLOOK and QUICKBOOKS that all SMB's use. Its MS $GREED$ Grab the world by the B**ls and squeeze with all
your might to squeeze every dime you can out of *SMB* because big business is going to run thier 2003 Exchange and 2008 servers into ground before they switch to this garbage.
YOU CANNOT INSTALL EXCHANGE 2013 on DC , OR on R-DERP server.
Go buy another server license and server or MOVE TO THE CLOUD and get fleeced every month.
I have 30 DC/R-DERP/Exchange and SBS2011 Premium servers all running for years in perfect harmony, locked down with security so the users can't even WIGGLE with something they are not supposed to work with. They get their apps, cannot install anything
and all these servers are running just fine behind the firewall and perfectly save. The track record of this combination is 100% stable and is up 24/7/365 with no problems. Do yourself a favor and throw this 2012 into the river, you don't need
any weights because it is LEAD and will sink to the bottom by itself.
Why, you ask? Official is "Its for your protection" The real reason? To sell you more $700 server licences.
Maybe for SMB, we start selling Linux NAS Servers, host the Exchange in the cloud and be hearded like cattle to the Microsoft slaughterhouse. One way or another, you are going to bleed.    A little each month to move to the cloud, or
a small fortune if you want to have it in house. Microsoft wants it to be more expensive to have in house. No more buying a server and running it for six years before you upgrade. They can't have in house servers competing with their cloud,
and small businesses are the low hanging fruit ripe for the pickin'.

HT201380 I AM USING MACBOOK PRO RETINA. DO I NEED TO INSTALL REMOTE DESKTOP 3.7.1 ?

Hi,
i am using MacBook Pro Retina 15 , 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7.
Can anyone tell me about Remote Desktop Client Update 3.7.1 neccessary to install in my MacBook pro Please

Hi
Apple Remote Desktop is part of your OS and just as other system updates you should install it as it fixes some issues as listed here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1710
Apple Remote Desktop is not a virus, malware or anything else that might be seen as 'nastyware'. As with any update you should follow Apple's advice prior to running the update and make sure you have a full and complete backup of any data you can't do without.

[SOLVED] Installing Eve Online with Wine

I followed this guide: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager. … &iId=25823 in an attempt to install Eve on wine. However, when I try to run the installer.msi file, the install window appears, but the buttons to continue are greyed out. The only button that is not greyed out is the cancel button, and I am not able to press it. It seems like the installer is frozen. When I try to run wine installer.msi, I get:
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ wine EVE_Online_Installer_Full_899716.msi
wine: Bad EXE format for Z:\home\d0ublemur\Downloads\EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES\EVE_Online_Installer_Full_899716.msi.

And when I run wine start installer.msi, I get:

Ok, so I tried the command in the howto like Lone_Wolf suggested, and it gave me the output:
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ wine EVE_Oline_Installer*.exe
wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\EVE_Oline_Installer*.exe"
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}
I thought that the "Eve_Oline_Installer" was a typo so i tried
wine Eve_Online_Installer*.exe
and the same thing happened:
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ wine EVE_Online_Installer*.exe
wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\EVE_Online_Installer*.exe"
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}

Remote desktop from Win 7 to Win server 2003 only allows 16 bit color depth. How to increase to at least 24 bit?

Hi! I'd like to RDP in to a Win server 2003 computer from my new Windows 7 (x64) computer. There's no problem to connect but the connection only allows me to use 16 bit color depth on the Windows server 2003 client. The program I want to use on this computer requires at least 24 bit to run.
I've googled around and tried it all:
-setting the color depth to 4 or 5 through regedit (on both computers)
-creating a Group Policy object-snap in through mmc
-reading endless of forums but no one has had the same issue as I
My question. If all the ordinary solutions isn't working what could the issue then be? My only suspision at this point is the the RDP-client on Win server isn't working properly. The Windows Server 2003 client is fully updated machine and it should have the RDP 5.2-version installed but I can only find 5.1. Could this be the issue? That it needs to be 5.2 to properly communicate with a win7(x64)? If so, how can I upgrade solely the RDP-client since it seems not to have followed with the Automatic Update as it should?
All answers and feedback are very much appreciated!
Many thanks
Frank

Hello Frank,
Thanks for your feedback and the test.
I still recommend you to check the local group policy setting “Limit maximum color depth” on the Terminal Server side. Based on your description of Group Policy Object Editor, I suspect the loss of Terminal Services folder is caused by system.adm file not loaded successfully. Please try to fix it via the following steps:
1.     Open Group Policy Object Editor (run “gpedit.msc”) on the terminal server.
2.     Expand Computer Configuration \ Administrative Templates
3.     Right click Administrative Templates folder and select Add/Remove Templates, if system is not listed in the panel, go to Step 4; If it is, remove it and go to Step 4.
4.     Click Add button.
5.     In the next phase, it is Windows\inf folder, if it is not, please navigate to the folder. Select system.adm file and click Open.
6.     Check if the Terminal Services folder appears under Windows Components now.
Thanks for your cooperation and we’re looking forwards to the result. Thanks.

Set up remote users in Win 2012 R2 remote server so employees can access their desktop remotely

Hi we want to get rid of PC/desktops in house. We are a 10 employee firm. We want all of them access the server remotely from their own laptop etc., They mostly use MS Office and adobe reader etc., very light work. How can
we set up a virtual desktop for each of the users in the Server. I heard about Remote Desktop Services but not sure how this would work.
we are planning to get a one managed dedicated server from some hosting provider with decent config (say Xeon Server with 8 GB or more RAM with SATA or SAS drives. If you have any suggestions please feel free to comment on whom to buy. Azure wouldn't
work as we cannot install MS Office App on the remote desktop services VM!).
Do I need a separate server for AD?
Does Win SRV 2012 have option to create remote desktop for users that can log in remotely?. I understand we need RDS CAL no problem,
How can we allow users to store data - what's a best option.. We can attach a SAS/SATA drive that users can map to is one idea.
We plan on getting Office 365 E3 plan that comes with Office Pro Plus. We understand that we need volume license for office to be installed on remote server. We will be migrating email and sharepoint to O365.
Appreciate if some one could advise how this would work. Also from backup point of view, what options that we need to consider.
thank you

Hi,
If all the users only need to use same applications, you can make the server as the Remote Desktop Session host server (RDSH), install the RD licensing role and install proper
RDS CALs.
If it is a Windows Server 2012, you can refer to
Deploying the RDS Quick Start deployment type in Windows Server 2012 (for Session Virtualization)
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/10421.deploying-the-rds-quick-start-deployment-type-in-windows-server-2012-for-session-virtualization.aspx
AD is not the requirement for you.
In addition, if you also would like to access the server from Internet, you may need to do one of the following:
1. Purchase a static public IP address and connect the server to the Internet directly.
2. Purchase a domain name and bind the IP address of the server to it.
3. If the server do not connect to Internet directly, you need to configure port forwarding on your router to forward TCP/DUP 3389.
4. Setup the VPN or RD gateway server.

Remote desktop looped install

Hello, I have seen this question a few times, and the only way I have seen it resolved is by re-imaging.
I have installed remote desktop 2.0, and every time I open the application it installs and then quits automatically. Over and over again.
In version 2.0 It will give me a dialog to say remote desktop has been installed sucessfully.
In version 2.2 It just exits.
I uninstalled per apple's instructions twice now, repaired disk permissions, rebooted on CD and repaired disk.
I still have the same problems.
Any other suggestions would be wonderful.
Thanks,
Ben

Completely uninstall ARD 2, reinstall ARD 2.0 and then before attempting to launch the ARD administrator, run System Update and update to ARD 2.2. Then give it a try.
