Terminal Server Question

I have inherited a system that has a terminal server set up for remote connections. How do I get into the individual lines?
It is a:
dc4-tsv-02#sh inv

and is running:
dc4-tsv-02#sh ver
Cisco IOS Software, 2800 Software (C2800NM-ADVIPSERVICESK9-M), Version 12.4(18a), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3)
I looked at the confguration guide at javascript:newWin('http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk801/tk36/technologies_configuration_example09186a008014f8e7.shtml') and my TS does not have any of the "ip host" commands.
Is this important given that my connections are all async consoles? What is the syntax for connecting to the individual async lines? I tried connect, etc. to no avail. The lines are all set up like this one:
interface Async0/0/0
no ip address
encapsulation slip
The lines appear to be live:

Thanks in advance!

Yes, that helped. I found the information through another source in the meantime (http://books.google.com/books?id=UbuEHLfhNmMC&pg=PA370&lpg=PA370&dq=connect+async+line+cisco+console&source=bl&ots=J5mBA0_clW&sig=fpvGz6W_xikAzImRdnaWZNMIoHs&hl=en&ei=aBnrSoqsHI2zlAfE9YCABQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=8&ved=0CCcQ6AEwBzgU#v=onepage&q=connect%20async%20line%20cisco%20console&f=false)
The "gotcha" here was to note that I needed to execute the telnet x.x.x.x zzzz from the terminal server host (x.x.x.x) itself.
Thanks for the assist though - I rated your post accordingly.

  • SCCM App-V 5 packages to terminal server/Windows 7/Windows 10 design

     Hi,
    I would appreciate your input on a design question on App-V 5 on SCCM 2012 R2.
    Where we are:
    We have Terminal Servers running with App-V 4.6 Clients for some years. The users on these Terminal Servers could only receive the App-v 4.6 packages (since the terminal server only had the App-V client)
    Some time ago we started the rollout of App-V 5.0 packages to Terminal servers via SCCM 2012 R2.
    In parallel we rolled out some App-V 5.0 clients to Windows 7 machines.
    What’s happening:
    Users get App-V package meant for TS (licensed applications which should not end on clients) and they should not
     What we want:
    deploy App-V packages (via SCCM) to W7 computers only, later we will deploy to users but for now our administration system doesn’t cover that
    select which App-V packages to deploy to Windows 10 (when it’s there)
    select which App-V packages to deploy to terminal servers (WKX)
    uninstall of users/computers not in collections anymore
    ð 
    TTo achieve this we would create different deployment types of an App-v package with each a prereq “W7, Windows 10, Windows terminal services”. Then also we would create an uninstall mechanism (like this http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrdogs/archive/2014/11/03/managing-app-v-deployments-in-configmgr-2012.aspx)
    Guess that would work, but wonder if you would see any flaws/issues
    in/with this setup?
    Thanks for your input.
    J.
    Jan Hoedt
    Update: then also I wonder the supersedence within the application (with different deployment types), f.e. 7-Zip on terminal servers should be replaced but not for Windows 7. Would that work?

    Uninstall is a bit of a concern too indeed.
    What I would do is
    f.e. 7-Zip Application-INSTALL, Deployment Types:
    *W7-Install prereq W7
    *WKX-Install prereq WK8R2, WK12R2
    => Deploy to Group "App-V-7-Zip", which has computers as well as user groups
    7-Zip Application-UNINSTALL, Deployment Types:
    *W7-Uninstall prereq W7
    *WKX-Uninstall prereq WK8R2, WK12R2
    => Deploy to Group "App-V-UNINSTALL" which has all App-V groups (such as "App-V-7-Zip")
    That's making sence, doesn't it?
    Note: "It's probably a smart idea to not trigger an uninstall on a terminal server in every occasion." Why is that? Applications should be removed when f.e. groups are not part of the App-V-7-Zip.

  • Windows Server 2012 and win 8 app on terminal server

    On a windows 2012 server, is it possible to install a windows 8 app that can be accessed (via terminal services/remote desktop) by client computers running prior version of Windows, such as 7, Vista and maybe XP? (Obviously without the touch capability).
    In other words, can a  windows 8 app be accessed via terminal server by other versions of Windows or it must be only Windows 8? 
    Also, I read that the new RDC can also be downloaded from the Windows Store to a tablet, but what tablet? "Surface" , iPad, Android?
    Thanks so much 
    CBJunior

    Hi,
    Windows app store is only available on the windows 8 platform.So it is not possible to install a windows 8 app that can be accessed (via terminal services/remote desktop) by client computers running prior version of Windows, such as 7, Vista
    and maybe XP.
    Also, I read that the new RDC can also be downloaded from the Windows Store to a tablet, but what tablet? "Surface" , iPad, Android?
    It is available in the windows app store on Surface which is installed with windows 8 RT.

  • Installing terminal server role on windows server 2012 to use for Windows server 2008 R2 machines.

    Dear
    Our current setup is as follows :-
    Active Driectory is in Windows Server 2003.
    Citrix Xenapp version 5.6 with all Xenapp servers in Windows Server 2003
    Now we are upgrading our Citrix farm to 6.5 and all Xen app servers into Windows Server 2008R2.
    We did the configuration and testing; everything works fine except the terminal server is not configured which gives the pop always for the expiry date.
    We do have license for 2012 terminal server which is not possible to downgrade for some reason and managent need to install new Windows Server 2012 for terminal server and activte the licenses.
    My question is :-
    1 Whether Windows Server 2008 R2 will get RDS cal license from Windows Server 2012 terminal server (RDS CAL license is of windows server 2012).
    2. What is the role and features I need to activate in Server 2012 in order to use for Citrix 6.5 (only applicable fetaure for getting the RDS cal license.) 
    3. Whether I can add this 2012 server into domain. Is it possible to add 2012 server into Windows Server 2003 AD. 
    Your early reply is highly appreciated.

    Thanks Jeremy..
    I got exactly the right answers I am lookoing for ..
    I successfully activated the terminal service on the newly created Windows 2012 Server and installed the retail license pack we had of 50+50+25 keys . It later shows the 125 keys successfully applied.
    when I tried to link the Xenapp (Windows Server2008R2) to the license server, it first gives me error that session host service role is not installed on the ternial server. So I installed that role also in the terminal server.
    But now its anothee error as below.
    RDS Cals are not available for this Remote Desktop Session host server, and licensing Diagnostic has identified licensing problems for the RD session host server.
    1. Is it wrong I did by installing session host server role into the terminal server (but really it gave me error like 'session host server role is not running on the license server' when I tried to link the license server).
    2. Is it the problem that Windows Server 2008 R2 will not get license from 2012 RDS CAL license.
    3. whether Clearing house will take time to update the license.
    Your reply is highly appreciated. I need to know whether any other way I can link the Windows Server  2008 R2 Servers (Xenapp) to the license server.

  • Cannot quit Visual FoxPro (Windows Terminal Server 2008 + Citrix XenApp 5 + VMWare vCenter 5.1)

    Hi everybody:
    This is not the typical question about this error, because the problem here is not about how to quit (CLEAR EVENTS then QUIT). The really and weird problem is that our application do no execute the error trapping routines (Try/Catch and ON ERROR) and tries
    to directly Quit.
    I have never seen something like this before, error trapping routines not executed.
    I try to explain the problem better:
    - The user click on the Citrix icon of our App
    - Citrix shows the executed processes (establishing connection, applying user config, loading profile, etc)
    - The Application (VFP 9 SP2) is started and in any moment, while loading, occurs an error that is not handled by error handlers, and it executes a "kind" of a Quit command, that we detect because have a ON SHUTDOWN to catch it, then the App shut
    down and the user must click the Citrix icon and start all over again, up to 7 times, when the App really load and work.
    - I think that it is useful to make clear that no QUIT command is really causing this, just the behaviour of the QUIT when an error occurs, but just while loading. If the App get completely loeaded, then everything works as expected
    Infraestructure:
    - Windows Terminal  Server 2008 + Citrix XenApp 5 + VMWare vCenter 5.1
    - There are up to 50 concurrent users max in every virtualized server
    - More than 10 GB of free disk space / Up to 4 GB ram
    - RAM Memory is never used to the max
    - CPU (Intel Xeon) is never used to the max (up to 90% in some cases)
    - Data (DBFs for temporal work) ar on local drive, not over network (to avoid network known problems with smb2-3)
    - There are connection to a Oracle 11 database for permanently storing the data
    About the errors:
    - They are not always the same or in the same place. In example, in one execution could fail the query of SET("Printer",2), in other execution could fail a SET PROCEDURE TO xxx ADDITIVE (sometimes already loaded), in other could fail a "DO
    WHILE .T." in a init event.... completely crazy, and in all cases the errors are not thrown, not a single error code, the App just try to quit, as if ALT+F4 where pressed.
    - All this does not happen allways to everyone, but happens many times in the day to many many users as to be worried
    - The same user can have this error many times a day, but not allways
    - Some of the problems started when migrating to Windows Terminal Server 2008, but didn't notice nothing special in the beginning, but a year later (last 2014) problems tend to go worse
    Tried solutions:
    - For the "SET PROCEDURE TO xxx ADDITIVE" error, a "IF xxx $ SET('PROCEDURE')" check was added
    - The "SET('Printer',2)" check was moved out of initialization code, so it executes when user want to print the first time. In this case was neccesary to talk with IT guys to map a default printer after the App runs, and not in background, as it
    was.
    - Other checks and modifications was made to minimize posibility of errors
    - Adding a timeout of 5 secs in the start of the program, to force a wait
    - Restart of virtual servers (not the phisical) every 3 weeks
    What I suspect:
    - Some Microsoft optimization (memory?, process execution?) in WTS-2008 may interfere?
    - Some VMWare memory management may interfere with WTS-2008?
    - Some Citrix management may interfere with both?
    - Server degradation because of day to day use
    Results until now:
    - Apparently, adding the timeout to force 5 secs delay and the restart of the server have made a notable enhancement in App start and running
    with far fewer
    errors
    Has
    this happened to anyone?
    Thanks! o_O
    Fernando D. Bozzo / Madrid (Spain)

    I never had this type of problems, but somewhat similar start up problems. I'd say it indicates resource problems. Low RAM can cause many unpredictable things. In my case loading much data at the begin of an application caused out of memory errors, which
    were reported and logged normally, though.
    I made a small tool using Windows API functions GetPerformanceInfo and GetProcessMemoryInfo, you'll find declaration and usage like usual at the News2News site. It's a bit lengthy and cluttered, but pretty much what you find there anyway, so I'll not post
    my utility code.
    I could quite clearly see how many users degraded available memory per session and at some time no further instance of the application was possible on the server. In my case RDP was used to start the app, Citrix will be quite the same, in the end the application
    runs on some server and users see the remote running application.

  • Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server.

    Hi,
    I was wondering about running Adobe Acrobat Std X (10) on a Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server for two users. Anyone else that have any experience with this? Best solution?
    Best regards
    Vegard

    Although Server 2008 R2 is a supported install platform, you'll have to be extremely careful about licensing - Acrobat is not a server product, so the only person who would be legally permitted to connect to it would be the one who owns the copy of Acrobat in question. Sharing a copy between multiple users is not an option; for that there are dedicated server-based solutions such as LiveCycle.

  • Installing Acrobat Pro 9.2 in a Terminal Server Environment

    Hi everyone,
    we're facing massive problems in our attempts to install Acrobat Pro 9.2 in a terminal server environment. It seems to be impossible to convert for example a .doc-file into a pdf via the adobe pdf-printer using a restricted user-account. It causes an "Access denied"-popup. We solved this subproblem by granting the user write-permission in the respective registry-key (HKLM\Software\Adobe). By now everytime we try, the application freezes after the "copy-status-bar" is filled. Using a power user instead of a normal user solves this problem. So the question is what's the relevant difference between the rights of those user groups.
    Thanks for your help!

    You can also try to update your Acrobat by applying patches one by one.
    to update upto latest version of Acrobat i.e 9.5, you need to apply the following updates
    9.3.0   download location: < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4605 >
    9.3.2   download location  < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4654 >
    9.3.3   download location  < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4695 >
    9.4      download location  < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4851 >
    9.4.2   download location  < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4931 >
    9.4.5   download location  < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5118 >
    9.4.6   download location  < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5237 >
    9.5     download location  < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5330 >
    You can download the above mentioned patches from the corrosponding download link and apply one by one in same order as mentioned above.
    This is  a bit lengthy process, but I hope you will be able to update your Acrobat.
    Thanks.

  • SharePoint site connection with Office Professional Plus 2013 on Terminal Server

    Hi,
    Background info:
    We use multiple Office 365 E3 subscriptions (12 now) and also have an Windows Server 2008 R2 Terminal Server.
    The users may install Office 365 Pro Plus on their local machines and are able to connect to SharePoint online with the Office applications. Now not everyone has a PC so they log in to one of the two Windows Server 2008 R2 Terminal Servers. I do
    however want one big happy family working with SharePoint so I installed Office Professional Plus 2013 and tweaked the Group Policies so that the start up screen and movie arent beeing showed.
    When I log in with my test user on the Terminal Server (who has a E3 subscription) I miss the feature to add a location (to connect to the SharePoint site). I just do not have that feature. When I log in with my domain administrator account who also
    has an E3 subscription, I am able to add a connection.
    There is SO much info on the web about Office 365/Terminal Servers etc but I am not able to find what I was looking for.
    Question:
    What do I need to do so our Domain Users who log in to the Windows Server 2008 R2 Terminal Server are able to open/save files directly to the SharePoint site? How do I add the SharePoint location as shown in the image:

    Hi,
    SharePoint would not exist when Office 2013 initial installed.  After you save a file to a SharePoint library for the first time, you can click
    Save as you do for any file. Please try the following steps:
    1) Add the document (Word file) to a document library on a SharePoint 2013 site
    2) Click on the file within the SharePoint document library.
    3) Click open in Excel
    4) Save the file
    5) Close Excel
    6) Open Excel, select new Blank Workbook, File, Save As, "SharePoint" should now appear.

  • Adobe PDF Documents - Windows Terminal Server, tips ?

    Hi,
    I am looking for some tips.
    We provide managed hosted servers for medium sized companies and for years have been using Adobe for the creation, manipulation and viewing of PDF's
    However since all these servers are running Terminal Services we find that the display and scroll speed of any document that we edit with Adobe to be very is slow.
    We can understand why this occurs, due to the fact that unlike other documents the background of the document scrolls / moves like it would for an other image but not all PDF products suffer so badly
    I have reduced the default resolution of any created pdf's and this has made a significant improvement but this does not solve the problem of documents created else where.
    I have tried some other pdf products and they don't seem to suffer as badly as Adobe does in this department. We don't want to stop using Adobe so hopefully I can get some tips to improve this situation.
    Regards

    Bill,
    Thank you for your response.
    Firstly, it does of course raise a flag of concern for users running a full copy of Adobe on their Terminal Servers. I would have thought that as long as they had sufficient licenses for all users i.e. 50 Adobe user licenses for 50 Terminal Server users they would be above board, but I will check up on this for them and if this is the case well that answers my question perfectly, they will have to change products.
    I also understand that there are many other converters around, we have tried several but would prefer to stay with Adobe. We don't like to support multiple products and have been supporting Adobe now for probably over a decade.
    Lastly the problem is not only for Acrobat Professional but also even just for the Reader. You see when you display an Adobe "Document" it is actually and image and therefore scroll speeds on a Terminal Server are agonisingly slow due to the "white" background of the document. Other products as we both have mentioned seem to have gotten "around" this some how and I am not quite sure how.
    I really don't expect to find a solution to this problem, I thought I would bring it up on the forums in case I have missed something before we have to move to a different PDF document application.

  • Deploying applications to Terminal Server.

    Hi,
    Brief question, when deploying applications to a terminal server, setting the deployment to 'no user logged on' is fine but do you need to script putting the server in install mode and then execution mode either side of the deployment, i.e make the script
    a dependencie?.
    Thanks

    #1: you can use a script that changes the install mode, installs the application and changes to install mode again
    #2: not needed

  • Application redraw issue over Citrix and Terminal Server

    Hi All,
    We provide a client-server application which connects to a SQL Server database. The middle-tier is hosted on an application server (Windows Server 2008 R2) which in turn connects to the SQL Server database. The fat client can either be installed on user laptops/desktops
    or published using Citix/Terminal services.
    We have a long standing issue which frankly I just cannot fathom. A customer has published the client via Citrix to users and using roaming profiles. If an employee is using the application in London, the roaming profile is created on a server in London and
    connects to the middle-tier in London. If an employee is using the application in Glasgow, the roaming profile is created in Edinburgh and the user connects to the middle-tier in London. The customer is also using DFS
    The roaming profile consists of the 'My Documents', 'My Pictures', 'My Videos', 'My Music' and 'Windows' folder. Distributed File System (DFS) is used for roaming profile folder replication between offices. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/cc732863%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
    The Edinburgh users are experiencing application redraw issue where the interface loads in chunks. For example, when a user scrolls up and down or left and right, the data loads immediately (from SQL Server) but the interface (GUI) loads in blocks. You can
    actually see each segment of the GUI components loading. The issue also occurs if connecting via a Terminal Server where the application is also installed.
    For London users, it all works fine. If an Edinburgh user comes to London, they have no issues.
    The network connection is super fast between the various offices.
    The application is built using C++ and Delphi and uses the GDI API to draw the objects.
    Any guidance is appreciated.

    Hello partner,
    Thanks for contacting Microsoft. This is Sophia who is going to help with this issue. From your description, I learnt that users from Edinburgh have application redraw issue. However, London users worked fine. Please let me know if I misunderstand your purpose.
    Based on the information, it seems that the issue located in the middle-tier in London. Could you try building a middle-tier in Edinburgh and then test how the issue goes?
    Besides, based on my experience and research, by default the allocation of the bandwidth is 70 percent for graphics data and 30 percent for virtual channel data, meaning when bandwidth usage is under pressure, graphics data is guaranteed to get 70 percent
    of the available bandwidth.  And we can tweak the settings a bit for some scenarios. To change the settings, we can set registry values. Please reference the information below.
    ===========================================================================================================================================
    Note: For these settings to take effect, the computer must be restarted.
    Following is the list of registry values that affect the bandwidth allocation behavior. These are all DWORD values under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TermDD:
    ·         FlowControlDisable: When set to 1, this value disables the new flow control algorithm, making it essentially First-In-First-Out (FIFO) for all packet requests. This provides results similar to Windows Server
    2003. (The default for this value is 0).
    ·         FlowControlDisplayBandwidth / FlowControlChannelBandwidth: These two values together determine the bandwidth distribution between display and virtual channels. You can set these values in the range of 0–255.
    For example, setting FlowControlDisplayBandwidth = 100 and FlowControlChannelBandwidth = 100 creates an equal bandwidth distribution between video and VCs. The default is 70 for FlowControlDisplayBandwidth and 30 for FlowControlChannelBandwidth, thus making
    the default distribution equal to 70–30.
    ·         FlowControlChargePostCompression: If set to 1, this value bases the bandwidth allocation on post-compression bandwidth usage. The default for this value is 0, which means that the bandwidth distribution is applied
    on pre-compressed data.

  • Terminal Server Session Management: why do we need a rdp session to take control of a terminal session?

    Hi all,
    As title, I have this question: why do we need a rdp session to take remote control of a terminal server session?
    I copied tsadmin and related file to a windows 8.1 pc and I'm able to see for every terminal server the list of users logged in, but the option "take control" is greyed out... why? is not possible to avoid this block?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello, Davide_ita.
    Also tried to use RDSM to "Remote Control" user's sessions, but in this thread
    Remote Control
    with Remote Desktop Services Manager - error Access is denied (Windows Server 2012 R2)
    I get the recommendation to use RDP or Remote Assistance.
    The quote of

    Hi,
    You cannot remote control a session on a 2012 R2 RDSH server using Remote Desktop Services Manager.  You need to use the RDP 8.1 mstsc.exe or the RDS gui in Server Manager on 2012 R2.  The command you would use with the RDP 8.1 client would be
    this:
    mstsc /shadow:<sessionid> /control
    -TP

  • Is there a way to control the computer name that an application sees in 2012 Server (i.e. Terminal Server Compatibility flags)

    I’m looking for the proper location to set the TS Program Compatibility Flags (for controlling application execution in execute mode) under 2012 server.
    On Server 2003, we can use:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Terminal Server\Compatibility\Application\MYAPP
    On Server 2008, we can use:
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Terminal Server\Compatibility\Applications\MYAPP
    Is there a similar setting in 2012 Server?

    I have an open question about this issue on the partner site, with no fix yet. Did any of you find the answer? I have a client who needs to have Server 2012 R2 report user name or the name of the computer accessing the RDS server.
    They currently have a 2000 Terminal Server, and I always thought it was reporting user name to MAS 90, but when I looked recently, I found that it actually reports the name of the computer that is connecting to the terminal server, which also works fine.
    MAS 90 just needs to see a different name for each connection.
    These are the current entries on the 2000 terminal server, and they cause it to show remote computer name in MAS 90 fid0map.ini file:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Terminal Server\Compatibility\Applications\PVXWIN]
    "Flags"=dword:0000001f
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Terminal Server\Compatibility\Applications\PVXWIN32]
    "Flags"=dword:00000408
    Thank you for your help!
