Where is the Remote Desktop Forum?

If I am not mistaken there was a forum for RD 3
but I can't seem to find on the boards. Which
category is it in or has it been removed?
Thank you,

[Forum FAQ] Troubleshoot the error "The Remote Desktop Session Host server is in Per User licensing mode and No Redirector Mode"

Symptom
RD License server is a key component of RDS. It licenses users to access RDS servers.
After purchase the required RDS CALs, we need to activate the RDS License server and install the purchased RDS CALs. However, during the installation or after installation, we may face errors
about RDS License.
In most cases, the following error may occur.
Error:
The Remote Desktop Session Host server is in Per User licensing mode and No Redirector Mode, but license server "Server name" does not have any installed licenses with the following
attributes:
Product version: Windows Server 2012
Licensing mode: Per User
License type: RDS CALs
Troubleshooting
1. Check whether the RD License Configuration is configured properly and there are no Warnings in the Event.
2. The License Server should be part of 'RD Server License' group in Active Directory Domain Services.
3. Check if the Licensing Mode is correct.
- To change the Licensing Mode we can use RD Licensing diagnose, PowerShell cmdlet and Group Policy.
Via PowerShell cmdlet:
To change the licensing mode on RDSH/RDVH:
$obj = get-wmiobject -namespace "Root/CIMV2/TerminalServices" Win32_TerminalServiceSetting
$obj.ChangeMode(value)
# Value can be 2 - per Device, 4 - Per user
Via Group Policy
Path: Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Remote Desktop Services -> Remote Desktop Session Host -> Licensing
Use the specified RD license servers = FQDN of server name
Set the Remote Desktop licensing mode =
Per User
However, if issue persists, please provide detailed information and post the question in the
Remote Desktop Services (Terminal Services) forum.

Hi Richard,
You need to uninstall Remote desktop session host feature. After removing it, you will default two connections which does not need to purchase RD CALs'.

The remote desktop session host configuration & Remote session shadowing options missing in Windows server 2012.

Hi All,
I am using a Windows server 2012 Standard. When i leave my session idle for more than 20 min it disconnects and post more 20 minutes my session is logged off.
I know this setting can be changed from Remote desktop session host configuration in Windows server 2008 R2. But this option "Remote desktop session host configuration" is not there in Windows server 2012. Does any one have an idea where do i go
and edit these settings in the Server 2012 o/s ?
Also the Remote session shadowing option is also not available when i right click a user in the task manager. Any idea on an alternate method in Windows server 2012 ?

Exactly WHERE are the W2K12 R2 equivalent GPO settings to W2K8 R2 GPO settings of "Set time limit for disconnected sessions" and "set time limit for active but idle Remote Desktop Services
sessions"? Microsoft changed the remote desktop/terminal services around.
Appreciate it.

The Remote Desktop Session Host server is within its grace period Question

On my Windows 2012 Server, when I open the RD Licensing Diagnoser, I see this:
The Remote Desktop Session Host server is within its grace period, but the RD Session Host server has not been configured with any license server.
Configure a license server for the Remote Desktop Session Host server. If you have an existing license server, specify that license server for the RD Session Host server. Otherwise, install RD Licensing on a computer on your network and Configure RD Session
Host server to use it.
I have a few questions. First, I have 10 virtual machines setup (all Windows 7 Enterprise). I have my 10 VDI licenses for those machines. Do I need another license for my Remote Desktop Session Host? If not, how do I license my RD Session
Host Server? If so, does anyone know how much they cost? I have no licensing server. I just have my Windows 2008 server that is my AD and DNS Server (where my GPO's sit too) and my Windows 2012 server that is dedicated to only running VM's
for the remote users.

you should probably speak to a licensing expert as it can start getting fairly complicated and we wouldn't want to advise you incorrectly. Generally if you speak to a LAR (Large Account Reseller) they should be able to provide the guidance you need.
You can find more information on licensing virtual desktop through this white paper

How to install the Remote Desktop Services role on a Windows 2012 R2 Server

Hello,
I am a bit confused on how to install the RDP role on a 2012 R2 server. I have a two server domain and would like to make the second member server an RDP server to host applications (Word, Excel, a medical software, etc.) where users from their windows
7 desktop will use the Remote Desktop Connection to connect to the server, create a session and do their work. When installing the role, I am prompted with two options:
1- Role-based or feature based installation
2- Remote Desktop services installation
I see the RDP install option in both cases.
1- Which one do I use?
2- What role services do I install? (Connection broker, Gateway, Licensing, Session Host, Virtualization host and Web access). I think I need the first four only.
3- When installing software after RDP, I use the Change user /install and Change user /execute commands. What happens to the software that is already installed? Can remote
users use those?
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thank You,
Victor.

TP,
Thank you for your response. I added the RD Licensing thru the Role-based option.
Also opened the local group policy thru gpedit.msc and added the server name and the licensing mode type to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Remote Desktop Services -> Remote Desktop Session
Host -> Licensing
Use the specified RD license servers = NameOfMyServer
Set the Remote Desktop licensing mode = TypeOfMyLicense (Per User in my case)
Thank you again,
Victor

Since upgrade to Windows 8, cannot save .rdp files under the Remote Desktop Connection application on the Desktop

Since I upgraded to Windows 8, I am no longer able to save individual Remote Desktop Connection files as .rdp files. I am talking about the traditional Remote Desktop Connection application on the Desktop that was in previous Windows versions, not the
Remote Desktop App from the Windows 8 store.
When I try to click on the Save button I get "An error occurred while saving to file"
When I try to click on the Save As button I get "Unable to open connection file" with the file address being where I tried to save it with the file name at the end.
Also when I upgraded to Windows 8, my .rdp files disappeared from my Documents folder.
I need to create different .rdp files for different programs that my employees get into on my server. Now I have to hand type all the info each time into the Programs tap on the Remote Desktop Connection window, because I can't save to an
.rdp file.
I like the Remote Desktop App from the Windows store but it won't let me designate specific programs to use using standard dos notation (ie c:\program files\ etc..). It just goes to my server desktop.
I want to promote Windows 8 to my employees but I need either .rdp files for the traditional Remote Desktop Connection or the ability to open specific programs using dos notation in the Windows Store Remote Desktop App.

I know this is an old post but others might still be having the problem. Here's what I did.
Create a new text file and open it in notepad. Copy the below into it and edit for your environment. (IP, screen size).

You don't need to worry too much about what's in here. Save the text file as
filename.rdp then rightclick on the file and select edit. The familiar GUI rdp session editor will open. You can make changes in the GUI and
save or save as a different session.
Hope this helps.

The Remote Desktop administrator software failed to start due to an unexpected error...

Hi all...
Suddenly, I'm getting this error message when I try to open ARD. It was working a week ago and I'm not aware of changing anything. Any advice?
This is the 3.6.1 version of the ARD admin and I have the 3.6.2 Client installed (that was the way it was before, too, when it was working).
Note: I did try a fix from the forums that was posted in 2009, which required deleting the ARDAgent from the RemoteManagement folder in System/Core Services... and then reinstalling again using the Apple ARD Admin download for same. It worked for one run of the program, then the error came back.
What do you guys think?

Hmphf.
You may have to reinstall the Remote Desktop SW. See if that helps.
I don't think it's a coincidence that this update "fixed" the Remote Desktop SUID warning, and it also removed the potential update from my computer which I had placed on "Ignore" since I did not need it and did not need the warning, either. So there is a connection between this update and the Remote Desktop SW.

The Remote Desktop Connection Broker server could not enumerate the targets for the provider named NULL from the database.

When I try to install Connection Broker on a Windows 2012 R2 Server in a Windows 2003 domain I get this error:
The Remote Desktop Connection Broker server could not enumerate the targets for the provider named NULL from the database.
Pooled virtual desktop collection name: NULL
Error: Logon to the database failed.
I have added both the Connection Broker server and the 2 remote desktop servers (also Windows 2012 R2 Servers) to the "Windows Authorization Access Group" in the domain according to this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/331951
But it still does not work :-(
I keep getting same error....
Any idea what I might be missing ?

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Firstly please let us know by which method you have setup RDS role. You can have more advantage and feature when you will install with Standard deployment instead of Quick start deployment. So if you have setup with quick start option then you can try installing
with standard type and check the result.
In addition, please check SQL server database is properly configured for RDS server. Also check that domain controller properly communicates. Kindly go through below thread for more information.
Server 2012 RDS - Remote
Desktop Connection Broker Client failed to redirect the user domain\username. Error: NULL
Hope it helps!

Where is apple remote desktop?

Where is apple remote desktop installed?

Note that the administrator software for Apple Remote Destkop is not included with Mac OS X. You have to purchase it. It's available from the Mac App Store for $79 US if I remember the price correctly. Once installed, the administrator application will be the Applications folder.

What is the Remote Desktop?

This morning, I found three files: adoption.plist, tud.plist and utdcheckinDone from HD--Library--Application Support-- Apple Store again. It came at 5:10am this morning. I don't know where it got into my Mac. Also, I found Remote Desktop from HD--Library--Application Support--Apple. I didn't use Remote, but it was there. What is the Remote Desktop?

Thanks for telling that. I was online awhite, then I turned around for sometime, when came back, window had slept and needed to sign in, but I couldn't. Was that Apple's software for managing networded Mac systems lock me out? Please reply me, I will appreciate that. Why did it do that to me? Why? Do I need to go Apple to ask why?
Thank you so much for this information.
I am worried about my Mac. Do you know what is adoption.plist, utd.plist and utdcheckinDone? If you can and know, please let me know what it is. Thank you. Appreciate that. Good night

The grace period for the Remote Desktop Session Host server has expired

<p>I'm running Windows Server 2012, we only have 1 server and it's a DC. I'm trying to RD to the server from my Windows 7 laptop. It was working fine on Friday but when I came in on Monday I got message saying that 'The remote session was disconnnected
because there are no Remote Desktop License Servers available to provide a license'
So after a bit of digging I found out my 'grace period' had expired, so ordered a new license which I got today, installed this all ok but still i cannot connect via RD I get the same message....went into the RD License Diagnoser and it said the problem
was as follows
'The grace period for the Remote Desktop Session Host server has expired, but the RD Session Host server has not been configured with any license servers. Connections to the RD Session Host server will be denied unless a license server is configured for
the RD Session Host server.'
Suggested Resolution as follows
Configure a license server for the Remote Desktop Session Host server. If you have an existing license server, specify that license server for the RD Session Host Server. Otherwise, install RD Licensing on a computer on your network and Configure RD Session
Host Server to use it.'
I cannot figure out how to do this as I cannot find the RD Session Host Server tool.
Can any of you lovely people help me please

Hello,
Best option would be to assign the license server by using AD GPO. Youl will need to configure the following:
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Licensing
and define the settings for:
Use the specified Remote Desktop License Server
Set the Remote Desktop Licensing mode
Then assign the policy tho your server.

I tried to set up a remote desktop between my macmini and my work computer. I hit cancel and now the Remote Desktop will not close. I cannot shut down my computer either. How do you close a non-responsive application. I have tried everything!

I tried to set up a remote desktop connection between my MacMini and my work computer. It was not working so I hit cancel, but then the big black screen of death came up and will not go a way. I cannot close my computer nor quit the remote desktop connection. How do you close a non-responsive application? By the way, I am new to Mac and it is not as simple as hitting the Control, Alt, Delete. Please help.

Try ( alt + cmd + esc ). Gives you a menu of running applications, and a chance to "Force Quit".

How Do You Change the Remote Desktop Listening Port in Win 8.1 Pro

I am trying to setup two Win 8.1 Pro computers for Remote Desktop access on my local network. I can get Remote Desktop working fine on both when they are using the default RD port 3389. I am unable to change the listening port on one of the computers so
that I can access either via a public Internet connection. I change the listening port in the Registry, reboot the computer and verify that the port number has been changed BUT the computer still responds to the old port 3389 and can't connect via the new
port number. I added a Firewall rule for the new port, but that did NOT solve the problem.
I have followed the procedure below and verified in the Registry that the port is changed but the Remote Desktop remains accessible only on the default port 3389. The new port number in the Registry is 39699. I used a network scanner and it shows the computer
is still listening on port 3389 for Remote Desktop connections. Why is Win 8.1 Pro ignoring the new port number in the Registry and still responding on 3389? Is there another place in Win 8.1 Pro that the port also needs to be changed. I also added a new rule
in the Firewall to allow incoming requests on port 39699? This is a very frustrating problem, any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I followed the procedure shown below.
Hi ,
Based on my test, we can change the listening port for Remote Desktop.
To change the port that Remote Desktop listens on, follow these steps.
1.Start Registry Editor.
2.Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\PortNumber
3.On the Edit menu, click Modify, and then click Decimal.
4.Type the new port number, and then click OK.
5.Quit Registry Editor.
6.Restart the computer.
Meanwhile, please note, please type the new integer port number between 1025 and 65535 in the PortNumber text box.
And make sure the new port number is not in use by other application.
We may use the command below to check the result.
netstat -a
Also, we can use Network Monitor to trace the port.
Microsoft Network Monitor 3.4
Regards,

Hi,
There are two item that should be modified to change the default 3389 port:
One is: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\Wds\rdpwd\Tds\tcp]. Modify the PortNamber to the one you want.
The other is: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentContro1Set\Control\Tenninal Server\WinStations\RDP\Tcp]. Modify the PortNumber to the one you want.
In your case, you missed the first one.
