Standard vs Pro for Terminal Services

I know Acrobat Standard and Pro both have support for TS, but is one better suited for TS then the other?

I'd say standard as it's a smaller application, but if you need features that come with Pro, then you go with Pro.
In other words, they are both equally suited really.

Printer for Terminal Services / Thin Clients

Hi, Just checking on what multifunction printer you would suggest for use with a Terminal Services environment? We only require the printer to go through TS. The other features will be used locally (photo copy/fax).
I am looking at the CM2320, a good choice?
Terminal Services: Windows 2003
Thin Client: T5730 using RDP 6.0
Many thanks

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
A mandatory user profile is a special type of pre-configured roaming user profile that administrators can use to specify settings for users. With mandatory user profiles, a user can modify his or her desktop, but the changes are not saved when the user
logs off. The next time the user logs on, the mandatory user profile created by the administrator is downloaded. There are two types of mandatory profiles: normal mandatory profiles and super-mandatory profiles.
User profiles become mandatory profiles when the administrator renames the NTuser.dat file (the registry hive) on the server to NTuser.man. The .man extension causes the user profile to be a read-only profile.
User profiles become super-mandatory when the folder name of the profile path ends in .man; for example, \\server\share\mandatoryprofile.man\.

I'm interested in that issue as well as a lot of our Clients would like to deploy Adobe Creative Cloud apps in their Enterprise. As I'm a Citrix virtualization engineer I'd like to have an official Statement from Adobe whether or not their products can be licensed and installed on either Citrix XenDesktop (formerly XenApp) Servers and/or virtual Desktops (VDI Environment). This questions Needs answering from both a licensing as well as technical Point of view. So please Adobe, share your knowledge with us.

Licensing mode for terminal services

Hi,
This has been most likely asked here already but i just cannot find exactly what i'm looking for. OK, here's my situation:
We have a windows server 2008 cd installer. We already had it running before, but we got hit with a virus that we needed to re-install. Now, we are just getting things back to work again. However, we are encountering this message on our server.
"The licensing mode for the terminal server is not configured"
When i tried to configure the licensing, it's asking for the license code. But i'm not sure where to find the license code? is it in the CD installer?
Actually, i was not the one who installed the windows server before; i just took over when the server got hit with a virus.
Also, i'm not very sure if we really need the TS CALs. Our server has multiple users from different countries, and we access the server through remote desktop access.
Hope you can help us with this issue.
Thank you, i appreciate it.
Best,
Vanessa

Hi,
I forgot to inform that license server has actually been activated already. So i assumed we just need to configure the licensing mode. And so, from Terminal Services Configuration, i clicked "terminal services licensing mode" and i set it to "Per User". Now
the message "Licensing mode still not configured.." is now gone when i logged in to server. However, i get this warning on Terminal Services Configuration window:
"Terminal server is in Per User licensing mode, but license server does not have any Windows Server 2008 Per User TS CALs installed."
And when i checked from the TS Licensing Manager, and selected the server name, the details are:
TS CAL Version and type: Windows 2000 Server - Built-in TS Per Device CALs
License Program: Built-in
Total TS CALs: Unlimited
Available: Unlimited
Issued: 0
What does this mean? Should we set the TS licensing mode to Per Device instead of Per User?
Thank you.
Regards,
Vanessa

Difference Between Adobe After Effects Standard and Pro for Mac

Hi Gang
Can anyone tell me the major differences between After Effects 7.0 'Standard' and 'Pro 7.0' for Mac?
Thanx
Mike

AE 7 Pro contained additional features (such as motion tracking/stabilization) and plugins/effects that were not included in the Standard version.
With the release of CS3, Adobe abandoned the Standard/Pro segregation - now there is only one professionally-featured After Effects.

Log Entries for Terminal Services in Event Viewer?

Hello
I wasn't sure exactly where to post this. Answers.microsoft.com directed me here for an answer.
I'm running Windows 7 Professional 32 bit. It's a standalone PC, not joined to a domain, never configured as a server. I'm puzzled. When I review entries in the Event Viewer, all logon and logoff entries are located in Event Viewer/Applications and Services
Logs/Microsoft/ Windows/Terminal Server/Local Session Manager/Operational. Every logon/logoff event is recorded here, although I have always had Remote Desktop Services disabled in Services. I would think that logon/logoff events would be recorded in
Applications and Services Logs/Microsoft/Windows/Winlogon. That makes more sense to me. Some of these user entries have Address: LOCAL and some are blank. No major hardware or software changes that might have caused this. The Event Viewer only goes back
6 months (1 Mb) and then it's overwritten. Can anyone explain this to me? Thanks for your help.

Hi,
The path of Event Viewer/Applications and Services Logs/Microsoft/ Windows/Terminal Server/Local Session Manager is used to record Remote Desktop Services activity even through it's disabled.
Windows logon and logoff activity is recorded in another path: Windows Logs/Security.

Install Adobe Standard and Pro for deployment with app-v

I'm currently trying to install adobe 8.2.3 pro and Standard with App-v. The only media I have is 8.0 so I have downloaded all updates from 8.10 through 8.2.3. When I try and Install the MSP files it say's the application can not be found. I'm sure that is because when you install the application it is installed to Q:\adostd80.023. Does anyone know how this is suppose to be done?
Thanks

There are also issues with 32 vs 64-bit systems. The latter requires updating your version in general. Generally the initial releases have not worked in the 54-bit environment. There are many driver issues with 64-bit systems and probably should look carefully if 64-bits are needed. The 64-bit system is useful if you are computationally focused, but may not be much of an advantage in standard office environments. Just be careful. If you are installing OFFICE 2010, then you need AAX for PDF Maker compatibility -- prior versions of Acrobat only allow printing from the OFFICE 2010 suite. Some folks have been successful with AA8 on 32-bit Win7 (I have only seen 1 post that would suggest success with 64-bit Win7). Prior versions of Acrobat can be made to work on 32-bit Win7 systems, but require work arounds (i.e., the AcroTray tool that automates the conversion to PDF process fails in Win7). The 64-bit system will probably fail for most of the earlier versions in such cases.
Realize that you may have to deal with Win8 shortly that has it's own issues.

How to disable updates for terminal services.

We have installed firefox on our terminal servers. but currently it is set for auto updates. We need to disable auto updates on a server level so that we have consitancy of version across the board. The solutions I've searched via Google all are solutions for Firefox 2.x but now version 9.0 is out the same methodolgy doesn't apply.

Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values.
Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);

How to ge the value for attribute for terminal services attribute in Active Directory from userParameters attribute

I am using dirsync to get the attributes value that have changed in Active Directory(changelog).
The following link explains how the dirsync is used to get attribute values :
'http://blogs.technet.com/b/isrpfeplat/archive/2010/09/20/using-the-dirsync-control.aspx'
I am changing the attribute Local path under Remote Desktop Services Profile of a user. I have ran a client which uses dirsync to get the changed objects in AD.
In the client the attribute that is changed is `userParameters` and the value is in encrypted form.
CtxCfgPresent P☺CtxCfgPresent???? ☻☺CtxWFProfi
lePath?↑→☺CtxWFHomeDir?????????????"☻☺CtxWFHomeDirDrive?☺CtxShadow????☺CtxMaxDis
connectionTime????☺CtxMaxConnectionTime????☺CtxMaxIdleTime???? ☻☺CtxWorkDirector
y?☺CtxCfgFlags1????"☻☺CtxInitialProgram?
Is there a way to get the actual value form the userParameters.

Hi,
What about other changed attributes? Are other attributes retrieved by DirSync control turn to be encrypted form?
Best Regards,
Amy

How to create mandatory (read-only) profile for Terminal Services user (HP Thin Client) on Server2003... aaarrgghhh!

I've been tearing my hair out for a couple of days now...
I'm trying to create a mandatory profile for users logging in from hp thin clients on a 2003 server at a school.
I've set up a prototype user, then copied the proto user's NTUSER.DAT to NTUSER.MAN and renamed
NTUSER.DAT to NTUSER.DAT_unused.
At that point, logging in as the prototype user looks ok. It was my understanding that renaming NTUSER.DAT to NTUSER.MAN would make it a mandatory profile, and the user (in this case the proto user) would be unable to change it. However, in this
case the user can still modify the desktop and those modifications are preserved across logins. The NTUSER.MAN file is being updated, judging by the timestamp changes.
What am I missing?
I've tried putting the NTUSER.MAN in the user's dir on the server
(C:\Documents and Settings\ProtoUser),
in the DefaultUser, and in AllUsers.
Right now I'm getting a default, unmodifiable profile which I have no idea where it comes from.
In case it matters, the original user and directory tree from which the NTUSER.MAN I'm trying to use has been deleted, but I wouldn't think that should matter.
For example, I have the option to not show the security tab set in the group policy, but it is showing up.
The Start menu is showing as the classic start menu, and I had it set for the "new" (2 column) one.
I've got hide network places on the desktop set, but it's showing up.
Is there a way to tell where a profile is coming from?
I'm pretty confused at this point; any clarifications / tips would be much appreciated.
Related questions:
If both an NTUSER.DAT and an NTUSER.MAN exist, which is used?
If no profile is found for a user in the normal place, what happens?

How to change path of Users Terminal Services Profile for multiple AD users on server 2003?

Hello experts. I am working on a file server migration. All data has been migrated, I am currently working on redirecting users to the new file server. I
am able to select multiple users at once in ADUC -> right-click -> properties -> profile and here I can change the home folder and roaming profile path for each all users to point towards the new file server.
The issue I have run in to is that we have roaming profiles for terminal services users. So, there are hundreds of users that have their terminal services profile
configured in AD -> Right-click user (one at a time) -> properties -> terminal services profile. Here, the profile path is configured for each user as \\OLDserver\Profiles\%username%
and I need to change it to \\NEWserver\profiles\%username%.
I know that you can configure this path via group policy, I set up a GPO; Computer / Administrative Templates / Windows Components / Terminal Services / “Set Path
for TS Roaming Profiles” as \\NEWserver\profiles and applied this GPO to an OU containing the TS servers.
The problem is, the GPO is not working... When I log in to the TS and add a document to My Documents, it is still saving under \\OLDserver\profiles\Username.
So, the settings in AD are trumping the GPO I believe. What is the best way to accomplish my goal? Thanks in advance!

> to change it to \\NEWserver\profiles\%username%.
That is "profile" in opposite to...
> add a document to My Documents, it is still saving under
> \\OLDserver\profiles\Username.
...this one which is Folder Redirection and has NOTHING to do with
server based profiles.
> So, the settings in AD are trumping the GPO I believe.
No, it isn't. When you do not enable FR and you access "Documents", you
will never see an UNC path but the local c:\users\xyz\documents folder.

Terminal Services (TS) or Remote Desktop Services (RDS) scenario clarifications

Dear Support,
Question:
Do I still need to purchase RDS CALS license? or can use MSDN CALs in the Terminal Server?
Due to MSDN subscribers are End users, do not use Production Data and have to demo their developed applications to other End users group.
Scenario:
1. Use only Remote Desktop Session.
2. End users are MSDN Subscribers. (Although stated by Microsoft End users are non MSDN subscribers)
3. End users demo applications to End users.
4. End users develop their applications and have to demo to other End users group.
From MSDN link:
Client Access Licenses for Terminal Services
With an MSDN subscription, you are allowed to provide end users access to Internet demonstrations of your programs via Terminal Services (Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008) or Remote Desktop Services (Windows Server 2008 R2). Up to 200 anonymous
users can simultaneously access your demonstration this way. Your demonstration must not use production data. MSDN subscribers are licensed to demonstrate their applications to end users,
but Terminal Services (TS) or Remote Desktop Services (RDS) is the only scenario where end users without an MSDN subscription can interact with the demonstration application while the software is licensed through MSDN subscriptions.
Accessing CALs
MSDN subscribers can access CALs for demonstration purposes through the
Product keys page of MSDN Subscriber Downloads. Please access the documentation resources online for assistance with the
Terminal Server activation process. If you have any questions, please visit the Microsoft
Terminal Services forum.

OIM: Terminal Services Profile Path

Hi,
I am using OIM and AD with the OOTB AD connector.
I have made a pre-populate adapter that generates a Terminal Services Profile Path for a user. I would like the path to be added to users when they are created.
I have added an entry in the the AD User Form, pre-populate tab. Field name: Terminal Profile Path. Adapter: My generate Terminal Services Profile Path adapter.
Unfortunately, the Terminal Profile Path field is not pre-populated in the process form.
I have also tried to add a process task triggered by the create user task, and made my adapter a Process Task Adapter. This did not work either.
Just to test it, since there is no column for Terminal Services in the usr table, I created a Terminal Services Profile Path UDF. When I fill in the path in the UDF manually, the Terminal Profile Path field is not pre-populated in the process form.
I have made pre-populate adapters for other UDFs and had no troubles with that. Does anyone know if there is something special about this Terminal Services Profile Path field?
Thanks!!

Thanks Rajiv,
When I use a process task, the task is invoked, and I get:
Status: Rejected
Response: 62: Unknown response received.
But I thought I didn't really need to use a process task, and that it would be sufficient with a pre-populate adapter mapped to the right field. But it seems like I'm not using the field in the correct way...?
Thanks!
