BITS Service stopping after two minutes

$
0
0

I'v just set up a number of Remote Access Servers, some providing full desktops and some RemoteApps.

Two of them seem to have a problem with the BITS service - it's set to Automatic (delayed start) but it's impossible to get it to continue running - after 2 minutes, it stops again.

Both of the affected servers are providing a full remote desktop, although I don't know whether that's relevant - they aren't the only one providing a full desktop, and the others don't seem to be affected. Five of the servers have identical specifications (all set up from scratch, not created from a template), including the same software, and the other three don't have the problem).

Event viewer (system) reports that "The Background Intelligent Transfer Service service entered the stopped state." as an information item, but doesn't give any further detals.

Anyone any ideas?

Thanks

p.s. They are running Server 2016 Datacenter

Remote Descktop Self Sighned Cert - how do I stop the system from generating it on reboots?

$
0
0

I'm trying to get rid of the "Self Signed" Remote Desktop Certificate.

We're utsing centrally issued SSL Certs that have been imported into the Computer > Certificates > Personal > Certificates folder as well as the REmote Desktop > Certificates folder.

The issue is every time I reboot the server the Self Signed Cert returns and it's getting pinged on a security scan.  While I've set the properties to not be used for any purpose, I would really like to get rid to the thing.

How do I go about stopping the server from re-issuing the Self Signed Cert on each reboot?

Thanks in advance!

RDS Installation on Virtual Machine

$

0

Hey everyone,

I have a new server running Server 2012 Standard. I have installed Hyper-V and created two virtual machines. So my setup is this:

Physical machine running as DC.

Virtual machine 1 running as SQL server for business software system.

Virtual machine 2 for Remote Desktop Services.

We have three computers that need to be able to access a virtual desktop on the virtual server running remote desktop services.

The problem I am having is that when I go to the "Add Roles and Features" and select "Remote Desktop Services Installation" on the virtual machine, when it gets to the compatibility check, it fails with the message "Hardware-assisted virtualization is not present on the server."

I researched that error and found that it usually has to do with a bios setting under processors. I check that setting and it is correct. I then tried the same process on the physical machine (my DC, which I know is not recommended) and it did not come up with that error. So I can install remote desktop services on my DC (physical machine), but not the virtual machine. Is there a setting on the virtual machine that will enable hardware assisted virtualization?

I am getting the feeling that I can not install RDS on a virtual machine, but isn't that a big part of what virtual machines were made for?

Consider me confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The server is a brand new Dell Power Edge T420 with 64 gig of RAM and dual Xeon processors.

RemoteApp RDS2019 - splash screens stuck on client

$

Hi!

I am testing RDS 2019 with RemoteApp, and I have problems with startup splash screens. Each splash screen creates a button on the client’s taskbar and does not disappear from desktop and taskbar after the appearance of the main window. For example, I run three RemoteApp and I have three splash screens and three program windows on my desktop. And even if I close these windows, the splash screens will still remain on desktop and cannot be closed. This happens only in RemoteApp and does not occur with a remote desktop mode. I tried to recreate an RDS farm again, but it does not help.

This does not happen with all programs (having splash screen), but with many. At the same time, there were no such problems at RDS 2012R2/2016. 

As RDCB and RDSH used Windows Server 2019 with latest cumulative update (2019-01). As clients used Windows 10 1709/1809 with same update.

How to create a remote virtual hard drive in my local computer of documents on a VPS running Win server2016

I run an application in my local computers but I need the application  data file in a remote virtual server running Windows 2016.   I do not want to do remote desktop to run the application software in the server. I just want to host the application data file.

How I set this up?  I do not want to create a local copy of the server file because then clients be created segregates versions and this will not do me any good.

Hope my scenario has been laid down in a clear matter.


How to control application access in Remote Desktop Services

Hi,

I have a question about how to control i.e. grant / deny access to applications installed on Remote Desktop Session Host Servers.

Is there any recommended method/best practices to be used for granting access to a particular application (installed on RDSH Servers) to a limited set of users?

Thanks,

OneIdenity SPS as RD Gateway licensing

$

Hello,

We are planning to deploy OneIdentity SPS for session monitoring. We want to deploy it as a Remote Desktop Gateway in front of a windows server (Session Host).

I want to know how will the license be managed in this case. Note: We have RDS Device CAL license model.


Knowing that all traffic will go through the SPS, is this considered as one device?

Adding Session host to farm with HA Broker via PowerShell

$
0
0

We are currently working on some automation for scaling out a Remote Desktop farm, and have hit an issue with powershell and the broker. We have an HA broker with the broker name of RDBROKERCLUSTER. Round robin DNS resolves that to BROKER1 and BROKER2. Our basic farm is set up and I can log into RDWeb, click on the session collection and log in via RDBROKERCLUSTER and I get sent to my sessions hosts. 

Now we are trying to set up additional session hosts via powershell. We have some scripts spinning up new servers, domain joining them and adding the RDP role.

Then we are trying to run the following to make them session hosts:

Add-RDServer -Server "RDS-SH-03.corp.domain.com" -Role "RDS-RD-SERVER" -ConnectionBroker "rdbrokercluster.corp.domain.com"
Add-RDSessionHost -SessionHost "RDS-SH-03.corp.domain.com" -ConnectionBroker "rdbrokercluster.corp.domain.com" -CollectionName "test-collection"

These commands fail when I point the broker address to the HA name. If I change it to "-ConnectionBroker "Broker1" then the commands succeed. However, since I want this to work in an HA configuration, I want session hosts to be added even if one broker goes down, so I don't want my script dependent on any one broker. 

Can someone help me get this working or is this a limitation of RDP where you MUST specify an actual broker, rather than the HA name?

Thank you in advance!


Multiple / 2 Desktop collection (Windows 7 and Windows 10) in VDI infrastructure.

Hi Experts!

Would like to ask if it is possible to have 2 Collection which is windows 7 and 10  with 2 RDSH in one VDI infrastructure ? Or should i need to add additional RDSH for new Windows collection in same server? 

Currently we have existing windows 7 collection and we provision to build another collection, we have successfully build it and create virtual desktop under the new collection. Unfortunately upon testing /log in to windows 10 we have an error message prompt below. 

Can someone tell us the best practices if it's possible to have 2 collection with 2 RDSH only separated the RDVH server. or it may required to have additional Remote Desktop Session host in VDI. ?

Windows Server 2008 Date format change in RDP Users

$

Dear sir

Recently i have formatted my server and re-instaled windows server 2008 enterprise edition. Our clients are accessing this server thorugh remote desktop connection and they will be able to logon to application and if they close the application they will be logged out from the server. They are not allow to see or to do any other activity on the server  and server desktop.

My problem is the clients are getting the date format dd/mm/yyyy but they wanted to have dd-mm-yyyy. I have done configuration changes on the regional setup (administrative tab).

Before changing the above setup there are users already created. For those users the date format is showing dd/mm/yyyy but if i remove that users or add new users i am getting the new format as dd-mm-yyyy.

Is any way i can change the date format to all the users without deleting the user account.

Your help will be very helpful.

Thanks

RDVH Delegation Rights Error

$

0

Hello all, need some help in determining why the ConnectionBroker can't see the delegated rights to the assigned OU for creating & deleting virtual desktops.

Environment:

  • Forest: Windows2008Forest
  • Domain: Windows2008Domain
  • Schema: Windows2012R2
  • DCs - Mix of 2012 and 2012R2 Servers
  • MSVDI- (CB, Lic, Web, SH, VH) = All 2019 Servers

Regardless of the method I try to use I'm stymied in creating a virtual desktop pool.

I've been able to successfully get RDSH working, but not the RDVH.

I've validated the permissions on the OU.  I've cleared out the permissions, setup new OUs to try, re-run the commands, used the script that they provide.  Permissions are there...but the UI and PowerShell commands simply don't acknowledge the permissions.  I've even tried (and reverted) given Everyone full access to the OU.

Errors:

In the 'Create Collection' UI Wizard I receive the following text when clicking Next in the 'Unattended Settings' section.

  • The RD Connection Broker server does not have access to add the virtual desktops to the Active Directory domain.  Configure access by using the Active Directory page of the Deployment Properties.

In the Deployment Properties, Active Directory section I receive the following text:

  • The specified Active Directory Domain Services organizational unit is not configured with the appropriate permissions to automatically create virtual desktops.  To configure the appropriate permissions, click Apply.

Clicking apply and/or using the 'Generate Script' button and running the script applies the permissions...but the UI does not acknowledge that it works.  Visually validated the permissions through AD.

Ran Test-RDOUAccess and received an error -2147463168, Failed to test access for the Connection Broker.

Ran Grand-RDOUAccess and received the same error -2147463168, says that my current user didn't have the rights.  I tried with a domain admin and enterprise admin account...still didn't work.

Hoping that someone can give me an idea on what to try next.

Thanks!


Windows Search Index does not show more locations for me to choose

OS: Windows Server 2019 Standard

Version: 1809

OS build: 17763.1039

Server is a VM installed on a Windows Server 2019 Standard Hyper-V physical server.

Server has terminal services installed and is being used as a RDP server.

It has the search services feature installed.

The problem is that I am unable to select any of the drives as locations for search indexing. There should be at least a C: D: and F: drive available for indexing, but none are available. I have already click the "Show all locations" button but that added nothing to the list. I have tried logging in as a new user, but that didn't help. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the feature but that didn't change anything. Server has been rebooted multiple times with no change. I'm really at a loss at this point, any other server 2019 that I try the same process on works perfectly.

Your computer can't connect to the Remote Desktop Gateway server.

Hi!

I've been testing out RDS for our company and have deployed all roles on a single Windows server 2012 R2 (version: 6.3 Build 9600) for testing. It worked for a couple of days but suddenly almost nobody can login in, the users get this error "Your computer can't connect to the Remote Desktop Gateway server. Contact your network administrator for assistance". In the windows log on the server this shows up: "The user "user@domain", on client computer "xx.xx.xx.xx:12345", has initiated an outbound connection. This connection may not be authenticated yet.".

4 different users have tried logging on at home at their home network without success. But somehow it works for me, both at the office and at home on a another computer and a completely different network. And the other user accounts work at my PC even tho none of the computers is connected to the domain that the RDS solution is running on. 

I've tried adding the registry keys LmCompatibility and EnforceChannelBinding but it doesn't work. 

Any thoughts on what i'm missing?


RDS 2016 disconnect in 60 minutes warning with NComputing L300 devices

We run Server 2016's only but get that same license message  since ~ January 2020 only. We have Ncomputing L300 terminals behind. We use CAL per device with Workgroup only and our RDL diagnosers says there are no issues. Each server is its own licensing server too.

Through gpedit.msc I switched off licensing messages but that has no effect.

Sometimes the terminals get disconnected for ~30 seconds but they come back in the last state, just irritating.

We don't want to give our students admin login rights.

Hello,

We have two old virtualmachine 2008 r2, running remote desktop app services, and we got some issues with  schtask.exe process that comes randomly and uses all of cpu ressources that freeze the server.

We have to force restart the vm to get the services running again.

My question :

is it possible to disable remote access to schtasks.exe or just disable it forever? Because we 're suspecting a virus trying to remotly access to the task scheduler on both machines.

Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english

Update KB4534309 broke RDS over Web Application Proxy on 2012 R2 for iOS/Android clients

$

We have Remote Desktop published through Web Application Proxy, both running on Server 2012 R2.

 

The RDS application in WAP is configured for pass-through authentication so users can connect from both Windows and non-Windows ("rich apps" on Android/iOS/Mac) devices. This has been working for the past few years without issue.

 

After installing recent update KB4534309 (or the rollup that contains it, KB4534297), the non-Windows clients are unable to connect. They show error 0x3000008 during the "initiating remote connection" phase:

We couldn't connect to the gateway because of an error. If this keeps happening, ask your admin or tech support for help.

Has anyone experienced this or figured out a way to fix it?

Remote Desktop Services - Server Authentication Certificate problem

$
0
0

Hello

We have got a server, call it S1, running Windows Server 2012, and workstations running Windows 10 Enterprise 1909. People regularly need to access this server using the workstations. When people on workstations try to access this server, it initially works (i.e. they enter their credentials and then the "The identity of the remote computer cannot be verified ..." windowappears), but then the "remote desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons" error comes up. It goes away when connecting again, but instead shows the following error (without the "The identity of the remote computer cannot be verified ..." screen):

The connection has been terminated because an unexpected server authentication certificate was received from the remote computer. Try connecting again. If the problem continues, contact the owner of the remote computer or your network administrator.

This has been occurring sporadically ever since the server was built, however in the past few days it has appeared on all of the workstations. A few workstations used by sysadmins can still access the server by remotely connecting to another server that is on the same network, then remoting to S1 on the other server, however this is not the case for the rest of the workstations in the room. I've tried pinging S1 and it's replying fine.

I have also checked out the following other solutions to this problem from similar forum posts :

  • Replacing mstsc.exe and mstscax.dll - no computers on the network are running W10 build 1511, so can't get the files
  • Registry - the only registry options in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client are (Default) and PinConnectionBar - no RDGClientTransport
  • "Connect and don't warn me" - option is greyed out, stuck on "warn me"
  • Services - both the Remote Desktop Services and Remote Desktop Services UserMode Port Redirector are up and running.

I can't seem to figure out anything else about why this is happening.


Windows Server 2012 RDP - An internal error has occured - intermittent

$

Hi there,

In my environment we run 4 virtual windows server 2012 R2 plus a host on the same. Occasionally on the Main domain controller I will receive and RDP error from one of our sensors on our monitoring software (PRTG), when trying to remote in it will pop up saying, unable to connect and internal error has occured. It is very random, some days it wont happen sometimes it may happen once, it could happen 3 or 4 times at random intervals in a 20 minute period, the sensor also monitors the response time for RDP and it just seems to timeout. We have a sonicwall firewall in between the server and the outside world. I have tried changing the connection properties on windows firewall as well and other suggestions don seem to apply to my environment. Would anyone have any suggestions.

Kind Regards

Ben
