Windows Terminal Services

We use terminal services to provide our Db users with most of their tools, as it saves a lot of hassle with the desktop team when installing and upgrading applications. However, with SQL Developer, because the connections are locally stored in one folder, all the connections, when "Save Password" is checked, are available to all users. I know that the easy way out is to not check the "Save Password" option, but is there any way that the connection info can be moved or configured to use a user-specific folder, which under windows is locked down anyway?
Other users have requested the inclusion of DBA tools, and I would support this.

Martin,
You will be able to configure this in SQL Developer 1.1.

Sue

WEBVPN and Windows Terminal Services

Does anyone have a copy of a config to set up WEBVPN with Windows Terminal Services? I have opened port 3389, but something does not seem to be working correctly.

Hi Paul,
you don´t say exactly what is not working but anyhow here is example config:
Under Configuration | Tunneling and Security | WebVPN | Port Forwarding you put the following into the fields:
Name: Terminal Server
Local TCP Port: 2000
Remote Server: 10.172.24.100
Remote TCP Port: 3389
Now after the user has logged into the WebVPN and click-ed on Application Access he will see a window. In the window there are 6 columns. In the Local column you will see something like 127.0.0.1:2000 and in the Remote column 10.172.24.100:3389. The user will type 127.0.0.1:2000 in the computer field in the Remote Desktop Connection window
Hope this helps,

Windows Terminal Services and Swing

My large swing application is being accessed remotely using Windows Terminal Services RDP protocol and is performing dreadfully in terms of screen updates. Is there an answer for this problem? Any suggestions?
Regards
David

In my opinion the real problem is not at all in your application.
1) Window terminal services (RDP)
Each time that the screen changes is send to client all the screen.
This is also for mouse moving.
Using more efficent software, like Citrix that is based on RDP, are
send to client only the dirrefernces, and mouse moving is managed
only by client side.
This gives advantages in performances.
Window terminal Server, also, needed a strong Server to run, in my
experiences more than 10 connections my cause a performances
problems in many cases.
2) The network
Is needed an efficient network for ship quicly all data traffic generated
for that fat application, minimum 100 Mbit.
If the network is just congestionated for others think (internet browsing,
an lot of file exchange and so on) the performances of terminal server
is bad. (terminal server ships a lot of information across the network)
3) Your application.
Control if too many repaint() or revalidate() are called.
For do that simply u can override that methods in this way in your costom components:
public void repaint()
super.repaint();
System.out.println("Repainting of MyComponent");
the same think for revlidate.
Now, lanching your application, u can control how many times for transaction those methods are invoked.
My doubt is that, every time that a repaint or a revalidate occurs,
Terminal Server reshape all the screen for client (not so sure about
that)
I say u that because I have had a similar problem (flickering).
I have see that flickering was caused by serval repaint invocation
by swing itself.
I had solved it simply do that
public void repaint()
if (!wBatchMode)
super.repaint();
The variable wBatchMode is setted to true (for example in my custom
JTable) util I append columns and rows.
If u look for swing code for each column added, the repaint methid is
invoked.
When i have finished to populate my component i set the wBatchMode
variable to false, so the repaint method occurs only one time and no
flickering occurs.
So, if is true that Terminal Server for every revalidate/repaint reship
the screen, this method may be help u.

SSGD vs. Windows Terminal Services

I'm using one Windows Terminal Services server with 20 clients in my office. My question is, what advantages (ands disasvatages such as serial port forwarding) can I expect from using SSGD?
Thanks in advance.

I'm using one Windows Terminal Services server with

advantages (ands disasvatages such as serial port
forwarding) can I expect from using SSGD?
SSGD will also use the Terminal Services. The advantage you get is, that you can deposit the access also from the outside (= Internet) and not only to the inside.

WINDOWS TERMINAL SERVICES AND ORACLE CLIENT 9,10.1,10.2 BUG

PROBLEM:NON-ADMINISTRATOR USER UNABLE TO USE CLIENT SQLPLUS INSTALL
FIX: NONE... REFER TO Bug No.     4684738
Filed     18-OCT-2005     Updated     06-DEC-2005
Product     SQL*Plus     Product Version      10.2.0.1
Platform     Microsoft Windows Server 2003     Platform Version
HOW I FIXED:
copied instant client basic, instant SqlPlus, instant ODBC (i need ODBC connection)
step1:
login to terminal server as administrator, unzip basic, SqlPlus, ODBC into a new directory on the server, make sure users have basic file rights read,view to new directory.
step2:
copy a working copy of tnsnames.ora (the databases you want to connect to) into the directory where all your instant client files are.
step3:
create SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT variables > click my computer, properties,advanced. create variable SQLPATH set value to path of your instant clent files. create variable TNS_ADMIN set value to path of your instant client files.
step4:
edit the PATH statement listed in SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT variables and add the path to your instant client files at the beginning of the PATH statement.
step5:
logout, login as administrator test instant sqlplus open command prompt enter > sqlplus username?/password?@mydatabase
you should get connected to your database. Repeat step5 only login as a normal user. the normal user should be able to connect to the database.
Issue: it appears instant ODBC not ready for prime time I get error 126, reading forums it appears there are files missing from the install package. The Microsoft ODBC connector for Oracle does work with my MSACCESS applications that connect to Oracle 10G using the afore mentioned process. I will continue to troubleshoot instant ODBC issue and post findings. Oracle has already wasted 12 hours of my time trying to get their junky software working might as well waste another day before throwing in the towel.

You can download the latest JDBC drivers from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/index.html
You just need to place the jar somewhere and add the location to your classpath.

Min.Internet bandwidth for SAP clients with Windows Terminal Services (RDP)

Dear all,
what is a minimum/recommended Internet bandwidth for client who are using SAP client with RDP (SAP client is connecting directly via RDP session to remote SAP server).
regards
GN
Edited by: Grzegorz Niecka on Aug 4, 2011 10:36 AM

Hi GN.......
It is recommended to have 1 Mbps speed of Internet in order to connect SAP Client from its destination to server if you are using Terminal server or VPN.......
If you still not getting proper connectivity you may increase it to 2 Mbps........

Accessing client using Windows 2008 Terminal Service - Web Access?

Dear experts,
We are developing a network infrastructure solution for our new customer's B1 8.8 implementation.
Our customer would like to utilize Windows Server 2008 Terminal Service to connect B1 client in remote branch with server in head office area. And they want to use Terminal Service - WEB ACCESS. Base on our experience, we successfully implement B1 using Remote Desktop Connection or Citrix to support B1 client in the remote area.
My question is, Has SAP already support to utilize windows "Terminal Service - Web Access" to access B1 client?
If Yes then what are possible issues and solutions?
Thanks,
Indra

Hi,
when we said to customer that it is better to use citrix, they will see some concerns as follows:
1. Investment to buy citrix server
2. License of citrix
3. installation time for ICA client
4. maintenance cost for citrix and its server
The benefits are as follows:
1. Reduce cost to purchase B1 license. Remote and LAN users can access B1 through citrix
2. The connection speed. Citrix is more faster than RDC or terminal services either web access or not
3. The security reason. Check this link:
http://www.virtualizationadmin.com/articles-tutorials/terminal-services/management-tools/terminal-services-internet-information-server.html
In the support platform, there is no windows terminal services web access info. You may check it here:
http://service.sap.com/smb/sbo/platforms
The supported hosted environments are using citrix or windows terminal service. For remote users, the citrix is used for web access and windows terminal services are using IP and the connection is using internet (do not use VPN).
The citrix is not very expensive. We must make them realize the benefit.
Kita harus pastikan citrix itu bagus dan tidak mahal2 amat kok. Beli dari reseller citrix yang diauthorized tetapi tidak big company agar tidak mahal sekali. SAP AG menyarankan menggunakan citrix karena memang sangat bagus.
(in english : we must convince the customer about the citrixs benefit. it is not too expensive. The citrix could be buy from small reseller company so that its price is acceptable. SAP AG suggested to use citrix because it is very best web access).
I know bhs because I am from Indonesia hehehe....

Swing app in JDK6 continues to rendering slow in Windows Terminal Server

Hi,
Because Swing apps create interfaces internally and not using default OS APIs,
when running into a Windows Terminal Server client, there is no way to optimize
rendering. Windows Terminal Server and Linux FreeNX use a mechanism to send
to client only commands to render the windows. But, because the way Swing works,
not totally integrated to OS APIs, it's not possible for terminal servers to do this,
and these servers render Swing like images, something like VNC do, very slower than.
I have tested native apps and AWT apps, and the difference is very significant,
something like 50-70% faster.
Is there some project in Swing APIs or java.net open-sources to better this?

We are also seeing this issue with a Compiere implementation. With 10 distributed sites across the US, our client wanted to use Windows Terminal Services to simplify the client desktop management of the Swing application.
But performance is terrible...and screen painting issues a real problem. We are also on JDK5 still, so I'm discouraged to see that JDK6 doesn't appear to offer much improvement?
Is there any project afoot to address this issue for installations using terminal services?
Thanks,
Peter

How can Lion upgrade work with Microsoft Terminal Services.

We have a new Mac Mini and was told that Lion would work with Microsoft's Terminal Services. If this a correct statement because 'NOW " we have been advised they are not compatible unless we use parrallel or bootcamp is this correct?

Do you want to use the Mac mini to connect to a Windows system using the Windows Terminal Services protocols? Then you can install an RDC (Remote Desktop Connection) client.
Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Mac OS X Client (free)
<http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/remote-desktop/default.mspx>
CoRD (Microsoft RDC Screen Sharing)
<http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/22770/cord>
On the other hand, if you wanted to use the Mac mini as a server and have Windows systems connect using Windows Terminal Services, that is not going to happen, unless you install Windows on the Mac mini.
If you want to just remote connect to the Mac mini and see the screen from a Windows system, you can use a Windows VNC client (there are many VNC clients available) to connect to the Mac mini, after enabling System Preferences -> Sharing -> Screen Sharing. If the Mac mini has multiple accounts, you should be able to have multiple users connect concurrently, however, a Mac mini is not all that powerful, so I would not expect a lot of concurrently users can use the system at the same time.
If the above has not answered your questions, please be more specify about what you want to do with the Mac mini. Maybe some explicit examples.

Flash Player 10 on Terminal Services

B1 pelo WTS (Windows Terminal Server)

Boa tarde a todos...
Estou com um problema aqui na empresa que trabalho, foi implantado o B1 na unidade central e agora estamos implantando na filial de Porto Alegre....
Os usuarios de Porto Alegre irão acessar a base de dados que fica na central em São Paulo via WTS (Windows Terminal Server )...
Acontece que estamos enfrentando um grande problema com velocidade, visto que o acesso de Porto Alegre ficou extremamente lento.
Alguem ja passou por uma situação parecida?
Saberiam como melhorar essa questão da velocidade?
Ou alguma outra sugestão para essa implantação?

Oi
Não existe uma forma de alterar o SAP B1 para melhorar limitações de conetividade remota.
O WTS possui os seus próprios requisitos mínimos de comunicação e consoante o tamanho dos documentos e a quantidade de usuários conetados a performance vai ser mais reduzida.
Caso a rede seja utilizada para outras atividades, como armazenamento de arquivos (Word, Excel, etc...) isso irá afetar ainda mais a performance da comunicação remota.
Normalmente os valores recomendos são:
Windows Terminal Services .
-Bandwidth per user = 20 - 40 Kb
-Memory per user = 50 - 70 MB
Nota: Estes valores são meramente indicativos e a documentação mais recente da Microsoft deve ser consultada relativamente a largura de banda recomendada tal como referido na nota SAP 675004.

Have you checked the Print Service log in event viewer?
Here's How.
I have the Microsoft XPS driver on my clients, so I use that fact to my advantage below.
Click Start Button/Administrative Tools/Remote Desktop Services/Remote Desktop Services Manager on the RDSH server
Click the Sessions tab. PC’s are listed Under Client Name by their computer name. Take Note of the corresponding
ID. We will use this to locate the Printer information in the Event Log.
In the Event Log open Application and Services Logs/Microsoft/Windows/Print Service/Admin/ and Find the Event ID 823 entry that has the corresponding ID from the sessions tab you previously noted.
This Event Log Entry is created at Logon and you can only get the session ID when they are logged in.
This tells you what client printer was mapped for the client. The name that appears is the name of the Printer that was set on the client when the printer was installed.
See if you see any errors here.
If you see Event Id 823 with the following message “The default printer was changed to Microsoft XPS Document Writer,winspool,Ne00:. See the event user data for context information.” Twice in a row with no other messages in between, and the first occurs
at the time the user logged in, then their printer was not properly redirected.
You see the Microsoft XPS driver mapped for each session prior to Easy Print redirecting the client machine’s Default Printer.
Since your printer is the HP 1020 I would bet the driver on the client does not work with Easyprint. I would try the the HP Universal Print Driver or the driver for a printer that is very close, like the HP 1018.
Thanks,
Jeremy

How to configure windows services alerts in SCOM 2012 for all agent servers. For eg, Terminal Services, Netlogon, RPC etc..

Hi,
I need to configure different windows services alerts in SCOM 2012. Below are some of the windows services I need to monitor through SCOM.
Serivce: Windows Management Instrumentation
Service: Netlogon
Service: Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
Service: Server Service
Service: Terminal Services
Service: Windows Time
Service: Workstation
Service : WWW Publishing Service
Could some one please assist or share me the details, how to configure these services for windows agent servers.
Thanks..
Regards, Rajeev Parambil

Hi,
A certain set of services are monitored by default on all agents:
DNS Client
DHCP Client
RPC
Workstation
Server
For all the other services you could create a service monitor.
A nice blog series outlining this process can be found here: http://www.bictt.com/blogs/bictt.php/2011/03/16/scom-monitoring-a-service-part1
It's doing common things uncommonly well that brings succes. Check out my SCOM link blog:

How do I enable users to attend on Lync 2013 meeting on Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Services/XenApp 6?

Hi,
We are not using Lync internally. But some of my users need to attend Lync 2013 meetings. We run a Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Services/XenApp environment. Users are not allowed to install applications.
In the past, I was able to install administratively a Lync 2010 attendee client.
How do I enable my users to attend a Lync 2013 meeting?
Thanks.

This is not viable. I don't know which user is going to be attending Lync meetings from suppliers or customers ahead of time and have no contacts to request a test meeting. This is a loop. How does Microsoft expect sysadmins to support their products if
the client software is not easily available.
At this point if I have a user who needs this, I will only know about it after the meeting has failed. At that point the user is not very receptive to the idea of involving his contact in troubleshooting and setting up test meetings. It's even worse if it's
an executive.
Is there any way of pre-installing the pre-requisites for attending Lync 2013 meetings?
My only choice is to inform my user community that we have no way of supporting Lync and request that they use GotoMeeting or WebEx with their contacts who try to do a Lync meeting.
I am very disappointed in Microsoft's approach with Lync 2013.
Thanks for your time.
