We have installed Server 2016 and installed Remote desktop services and license activated on the server.

When we connect to the server 2016 from windows PC and its connecting without any issue.

But when when we connect through Ncomputing Vspace session thin client and we are getting the below error message.

There is a problem with your Remote Desktop License, and your session will be disconnected in 60 minutes.Contact your system administrator to fix this problem.

Please help on this issue.

RDP stuck at "Configuring Remote Session" WS2016

$
0
0

Hi. We have a new WS2016 RDS deployment (VMs on Hyper-V):

 - 2x WS2016 RDGW in NLB

 - 2x RDCB in HA configuration

 - couple RDSH servers

The problem is that in 30-50% of the connection attempts via these gateways, the connection is stuck at the "Configuring remote session" message. The connection is never successfully estabilished when this happens and it is closed without any error couple minutes later. When you try again (or just immediatelly cancel the connection and reconnect), the connection may or may not go through.

When this problem happens, I can see there's single HTTP connection on the RDGW that accepted the connection with 0 bytes transferred in either direction. There are no related errors at this time.

Can anyone help? Btw. this problem also happens when connecting to a different single-host RDS deployment through these gateways.

I suspected the problem might be in the NLB, but removing either of the gateways from the NLB configuration (and from RDS farm) doesn't help, the issue is still there.

Rebooting the gateways helps for a short while (hours), but then the issue is back.

There are some other errors on the gateways, but these don't correlate to the connection attempts (event 210, source terminalservices-gateway: "Http transport: IN channel could not find a corresponding OUT channel" with no other details).

RDP clients are various ... W8.1, W10, Mac...

Server 2012 R2 RDS sessions keep disconnecting

Hi there

Having issues with an RDS connection to a new 2012 R2 Server, fully updated, issue occurs to all Clients simultaneously. Sometimes brief disconnection (2 - 3 seconds) sometimes a lot longer.

Already performed the "keep alive=1" group policy hack but still happening.

Event ID40 reason codes 0 and 5 mainly - yet my licensing all checks out OK? I have 50 RDS cals but only 7 users - Ive split them into 25 per device and 25 per user to see if it makes any difference (No)

However The License diagnoser  states that ZERO licenses have been issued? Is this a problem? Too much of a Noob to know myself.

many thanks

hello all,

I appreciate any feedback on this question. we are trying to have six users work remotely from outside the office. We have an server 2012 r2 in a workgroup environment. No RDS licenses.

are we able to set up VPN through the router for six users to log in to the server at same time if there are no RDS licenses? Or can we set up VPN directly to six computers desktops using the router.

Thank you

Will 2012 CAL works on Windows 2016 RD Licensing Server?

Hi Experts,

This project just dropped on our face and we need to prepare things fast.  One thing we need to confirm is this.  Will 2012 CAL works on Windows 2016 RD Licensing Server?  Client's new environment has a Windows 2016 RD Licensing Server and their old RD Licensing Server is a Windows 2012 with 2012 CALs on it.  If it works, we can migrate it this way, correct?  Please advise.

Thank you so much in advanced!!

Windows 10 Remote Desktop Session Randomly Unexpectedly Exits and Terminates all apps - please help!

$

I remote desktop to my Window 10 Surface laptop via LAN (to use Outlook from the laptop) allowing me to create send/emails on the Surface laptop via remote desktop from my desktop PC. This has been working fine for 2+ years. Recently the Surface 10 has started ending the remote desktop session randomly perhaps 2 or 3 times per day. The worst parts is that it also terminates all running applications so when I can finally remote desktop back in my Outlook sessions have been lost. This is frustrating as I have lost a lot of drafted emails.

(I’ve setup Outlook to save every 1 minute but even so sometimes I lose the active email I'm working on in Outlook or recently received emails - I've lost lots of work because of this - it is driving me crazy.)

If I try to immediately log back in via RDP I sometimes get:

The number of connections to this computer is limited and all connections are in use right now. Try connecting later or contact your system administrator

I wait and try again and I can log back in but all my applications have been terminated. Perhaps the user session is being logged out and back in – I can’t tell.

Why on earth would all apps be terminated - it's as if the Surface computer user session is logged out and terminates all running apps for absolutely no reason.

There are no failed attempts in System Event Log Security, only forced log off. I noticed over 100 Audit Success security events at same time:

Credential Manager credentials were read.
Subject:
    Security ID:        DOMAIN\My Name
    Account Name:       My Name
    Account Domain:     DOMAIN
    Logon ID:           0x1A293A3D8
    Read Operation:     Enumerate Credentials
This event occurs when a user performs a read operation on stored credentials in Credential Manager.

This is then followed with:

An account was logged off.
Logon Type:         3

This event is generated when a logon session is destroyed. 
It may be positively correlated with a logon event using the Logon ID value. 
Logon IDs are only unique between reboots on the same computer.

Windows System Events at arounds this time shows a number of Errors:

The server {AAC1009F-AB33-48F9-9A21-7F5B88426A2E} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout.

Note, I posted this at https://superuser.com/questions/1484818/windows-10-remote-desktop-session-randomly-unexpectedly-terminates 

But no-one could help there.  This is really driving me crazy as I am losing emails on a daily basis

Hello colleagues

When we are doing such config (enable multiple sessions per user):

We are not able to reconnect to any disconnected session that was running previously.

It seems that it was mentioned here for Inside build, but we have same...

Can't connect to RDP on Windows Server 2016

Hi,

We have a Server 2016 with Remote Desktop Services enable but we can't connect to it anymore (it worked before).

We tried a lot of things already but not solved it yet. It seems the RDS isn't accepting connections on port 3389.

- telnet to it on port 3389 not working

- ping does work

- verified the port setting in registry

- rebooted the server

- added a separate rule to allow 3389 always

- netstat -an doesn't show an listening port on 3389

Someone an idea?

RDS Security and Configuration

$
0
0

Hello All,

We have deployed a new RDS environment with Server 2019. We have also Incorporated MFA with this new deployment. Since windows 7 support is about to end we have decided to only allow TLS 1.2. I have configured all of our servers in the environment with only this protocol enabled and I have enabled only GCM TLS 1.2 ciphers, as the CBC ciphers no longer provide forward security. Once I had everything configured I stated testing. I could connect no problem from any of the following OS's: Windows 10, Android 9, and Mac IOS. The only OS I had a problem with was Windows 10. Go figure. When the user signed out of the desktop the screen would stay black. The user would have to open task manager on their machine and end the RDP task to resolve the issue. I checked the Gateway server while the screen was black to see if the connection was hanging open or something and no it was not. According to the connection manager and the logs the user was logged out and the connection was closed successfully. After some testing I found the only way to resolve the black screen after log off issue was to enable the following cipher:

TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA

or its 128 counterpart. This removes the forward security aspect from my server and can allow a person to compromise the site or credentials at a later time.  

I have not found a way to use better security and continue to use RDS reliably. I will continue testing; however, if someone has any information about this I would greatly appreciate it. If I find something I will post back.

Thanks,

Scott

Any suggestions?

Profile Disks Do Not Load for One of the Two RDS Session Hosts in an RDS Farm

$

ALL SERVERS ARE WINDOWS 2016 STANDARDs, the hosts and VMs alike.

I have two (2) Hyper-v Physical Hosts, HV1 & HV2 with plenty of horsepower and 128GB of RAM.  All my participating servers in the FARM are VMs.  HV1 hosts RDSH1 and HV2 hosts RDSH2, which, as the names indicate are Session Host Servers.  HV2 also hosts RDSB, which is the Connection Broker, Gateway, License Server, and Profile Disk Server.  The total number of users is around 55; very low number by any extent of imagination.  After working flawlessly for a couple of months, recently, every user that ends up on RDSH1 gets the TEMP profile.  

Each Session Host Server (RDSH1$ & RDSH2$) have the same Security rights to the Profile Disk Share.  All other configurations are 100% the same.  The only difference is the RDSH1 is on a different physical server, but RDSH2 is on the same physical server as the Profile Disk Server/Share.  Both Physical Hosts are connected physically to the same Cisco Enterprise switch, and the servers and the switch all are only 1 year old.  For now, I have taken RDSH1 out of the equation and all is fine, but I really want to add it back in for many compelling reasons, specifically for the sake of eliminating "single point of failure".

I have been in this field for 20 years, and still know very little, but, for the sake of all, please do not post "no-answer" answers if you do not know the answer, for the sake of accumulating points-- whatever they are worth.  I rarely post anything, because a whole lot of people post nonsense as answers or ask questions that are already in the "Introduction".

But for those who really understand Remote Desktop Server Services (2012 and up), as well as the Virtualization and Physical Layer's aspect of networking, I greatly appreciate the help. 

I have been researching this for weeks.  My gut feeling tells me this is a design flaw by MS.  But who is to say?  And, I have very little faith in MS to come out and admitting it.


Easiest way to enable more than 2 concurrent RDP sessions on Windows Server 2016

Hello everyone,

I am trying to figure out the easiest way to allow more than 2 RDP sessions at a time on my Windows 2016 Server Standard. I have tried using the google to help, but there are so many suggestions and 90% of them result in the original poster disappearing so I don't know the best way to accomplish this. I don't need anything extravagant setup, I just need more than 2 people to be able to rdp into the server at the same time.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi 

Can anybody share their views if they have experience the similar issue with the remote user. One of the remote user when tried to remote connect to the server her start button and task bar get freeze. But this issue clears when we restart the server, but after couple of weeks this issue comes back again. Its quite frustrating. Can anyone share their ideas if they have experience such kind of issue.

This issue happens only with one user among 10-12 users.

How do I allow more than 2 RDP sessions to a Windows Server 2012

We have a Windows 2012 Server which we use in our environment as a Jump server for performing day to day management tasks, The requirement is, we have to enable multiple users (6-8) from my team to logon to the server simultaneously, Please let me know what role is needed to be installed and step by step instructions please. I don't want to enable unnecessary things like capability of publishing Applications/VDI etc.. Simple requirement is to have multiple terminal server sessions allowed.

Installing RDS on Server 2019

$

I currently have 2008R2 TS server. I have purchased new RDS cals for 2019 and a server license.

I have the RDS cals installed on the license server ok.

What roles do I need to install for RDS. I have selected the quick setup for RDS in Add Roles Features but this installed Remote Apps and Web Gateway.

I dont require these roles, I would just like a Sessions host server as it will be internal only for around 10 users.

Is this possible? Can the apps and gateway be removed?

Many thanks

"Internal Error" When Connecting to RDP

$

I have a Hyper-V virtual machine running on a Windows Server 2012 host. I have outside users that RDP into the virtual machine.

Yesterday, a couple users (including me) started getting an Internal Error when trying to connect to the VM after entering password.

I did some testing and noticed that I was able to connect only very rarely. The majority of the times, RDP would give me that error. I restarted the physical server and today, nearly all of our users are experiencing the issue.

Interestingly, when I use the FQDN of the VM or its internal IP in the RDP panel, there is no issue. It only seems to happen when using the DNS name or outside IP address.

We have a backup virtual machine on the same server that is basically a clone of our main VM. This one is working fine with no issues.


Checking the Event Logs after failing to connect, I see:
Security Log:
2 instances of the below three events:
Event ID 4672 Special privileges assigned to new logon.
Event ID 4624 An account was successfully logged on.
Event ID 4634 An account was logged off. (This is immediately after the logon event.)

RemoteDesktopServices-RdpCoreTS Log:
3 instances of the below events:
Event ID 131 The server accepted a new TCP connection from client *ip address*
Event ID 65 Connection RDP-Tcp#3 created
Event ID 102 The server has terminated main RDP connection with the client.

Solutions tried:
Restarting VM
Restarting entire server
Removing VM from domain and re-joining
Lowering MTU on VM
Removing and Reinstalling Remote Desktop Gateway service on VM
Restoring a backup image from before this error started happening (the error happens now on the old image as well)

Both the main and backup VMs have the same settings in our firewall.
