Mouse cursor interacting with Remote Desktop App windows on the wrong monitor

$
0
0

We have a WinForms application we use as a remote desktop app and recently we've had multiple users report a situation where clicking on one monitor actually interacts with windows on another monitor. Restarting the remote desktop application seems to fix the problem. Our users have a two monitor setup.

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Per User RDS licensing on Windows Sever 2016 in Workgroup environment

$

0

Hello to All!

We have a problem with RDS feature on 2016 Server.

Server was deployed with no CALs installed and worked some time in a trial mode. Then owners of this server bought 30 Per User licenses trough SPLA programm and I was asked to activate and install licenses in it.

Before I connect to server I saw that owners are now in procces of deleting grace period registry entry (because grace period has ended and they was in big hurry to make it work again).

After all this and mine (standart activation and installing licenses proccess) manipulations server now did not want to see legal licenses and continuing working in trial mode (grace period still ticking). Last manipulations was to delete grace registry again and reboot the sever (I found similar situation https://www.360ict.nl/blog/no-remote-desktop-licence-server-availible-on-rd-session-host-server-2012/) but it did not helped and now grace period start ticking from beginnig (120 days).

I found info that 2016 server is still can issue Per User CALs to local users in Workgroup environment and made all manipulations with local group policies https://digitalbamboo.wordpress.com/2017/04/05/deploy-remote-desktop-services-in-a-workgroup-easily/ and other stuff and now in diagnostics there have no warning and all green.

Maybe some one faced similar problem or have any suggestions I would be very graceful. I'm desperate already.

What RDS licenses do I need and WHERE do I need to put them?

I'm building a new server... [Host Server] (Windows Server 2019 Standard)

The new HOST Server will have 4 VM's

1) [PDC/DC1] - Domain Controller - Windows Server 2019 Standard

2) [Exchange] - MS Exchange Server - Windows Server 2019 Standard / Exchange 2019

3) [Apps] - Apps Server - Windows Server 2019 Standard

4) [Workstation] - Windows 10 Professional


As an Admin, I will be RDP'ing directly to: [Host Server] - [PDC/DC1] - [Exchange] - [Apps] servers for maintenance.

Connections:

1) As an admin, I will be RDP'ing directly to: [Host Server] - [PDC/DC1] - [Exchange] - [Apps] servers for maintenance.

2) A handfull of users (1 at a time) will RDP directly to [Workstation - Windows 10 Pro] for various tasks.


I believe that I need RDS licenses to accomplish this. What I don't know is where do I need to install them to? Do I: 

A) Install all of them to the host server?

B) Install 1 on each of the VM's [Host Server] - [PDC/DC1] - [Exchange] - [Apps] - [Workstation Windows 10 Pro]

Thanks!


Error message: Your password may have expired or the remote pc might not accept blank passwords

When connecting from Windows 10 Home to Windows 10 Pro using the RD app, I get a message "Your password may have expired or the remote pc might not accept blank passwords". My password has not expired (I tried changing it and using the new password), and I am definitely not sending a blank password (the credentials are not saved, and I type them in every time).

Using the desktop app works, but it cuts off after a few seconds, but that's a different issue. When connected, the connection is shown as 'Excellent', so I am not having Internet connection issues.

Using the Android RD app from my phone works perfectly.

Printers from GPOs causing slow login times to RDS environment

Have an odd situation.  I've already loaded the printer drivers for all the printers onto each of the RDS servers, which helped decrease login times, but for users who do have printer mappings via GPO, their logins are much greater in time than those without printers.   I thought eliminating drivers would be the fix but it only helped a bit.  any other tips or tweaks anyone could suggest to try?

2016 RDS issue - Single user | Windows cannot find local profile.

$

Hello, 

I'm receiving a few errors with my RDS 2016 build. Randomly a user, upon logging in will be given a temporary profile. I do the normal remediation steps by deleting the temp profile in the registry and Advance User options, the server is rebooted and they can log in fine. But after a while the error comes back again. All other users can remote in fine with no issues, it only effects one user at a time. A few errors I see....

1. Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.

2. 

The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID 
{D63B10C5-BB46-4990-A94F-E40B9D520160}
 and APPID 
{9CA88EE3-ACB7-47C8-AFC4-AB702511C276}
 to the user (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) SID (S-1-5-21-3444666529-4500789-23435591xx-xxxxx) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

The RDS server shows this error

3. Remote Desktop Services could not apply a user desktop for a user account with a SID of S-1-5-21-3444666529-4500789-23435591xx-xxxxx. A temporary profile was enforced for the user. Verify that the user profile disk settings are correct. The error code is 0x15.135

4. Remote Desktop Services could not attach a user profile disk for a user account with a SID of S-1-5-21-3444666529-4500789-23435591xx-xxxxx. The error code is 0x15.135

Thanks.

Can you offer up some suggestions regarding the following System log events? We are seeing these errors frequently on the Windows Server 2012 R2 server which is hosting the Remote Desktop license server.

1. Are these warnings and errors concerning and require action to correct? If so what steps?

2. What end user experience symptoms (other than the posted messages to System log) would we expect to see?

In addition, I can confirm that, per instructions in event 4105, the license server is not a domain controller and the computer account is a member of the built-in "Terminal Server License Servers" group.

A similar question TechNetForumTopicTechNetForumQuestionSysAdminTipBlog, and MsITprosBlog refers to a solution involving old accounts for long-term employees who are appearing in event 4105. I have validated that many of them are old enough that they likely existed back when this domain was at the 2003 functional level (it is now at the 2012 level). However, these users are not reporting any symptoms, so the event 4105 seems to not cause any downside other than logging the event. (Which goes back to my original questions, what symptom effect should we be seeing?)

Thanks in advance for your assistance.


Is there a way to enable remote services from the Domain Controller?

Noob here that's temporarily filling in for our main admin.

Issue: I setup a new user but now need to make some tweaks remotely... however when I try to connect I get the error : 

"The connection was denied because the user account is not authorized for remote login" 

Is there any way to enable this from the DC / active directory? Or do I need to do this from the local device/user? 

The articles I have read thus far are a bit outdated or have not helped.

Thanks in advance and sorry for being noob. 


Ongoing cert mismatch error with RDS & Webclient on Server 2019

$

Scenario....

Single server hosting all roles, RD Connection Broker, RD Session host, RD Gateway, RD Licensing, RD WebAccess.

All webclient pieces installed without error.

Cert is official SHA2 cert from InCommon. The cert has been imported into IIS. In the Deployment Properties, Under "Certificates", the cert is showing as "Trusted" and "OK" for all role services.

In the RD Gateway Manager mmc, on the SSL Certificate tab for the server properties, the cert is showing the certificate from InCommon as being installed. 

Problem....

The error is reproducible on Chrome or the new IE Dev (chromium) browser. I navigate to the page secured with SSL. I successfully authenticate. I select the calculator app. It shows "Opening Port"...."Establishing Connection", then in the browser I get...

Oops, we couldn't connect to "Calculator"
Your session ended because an unexpected server authentication certificate was received from the remote PC. Ask your admin or tech support for help.
Certificate information:
Server Name: myserver name blah blah blah.

The thumbprint is showing the same as the cert I have installed.

If I run a browser in dev mode....I can see the error as...

2019-05-13T17:22:25.555Z Connection(ERR): The connection generated an internal exception with disconnect code=CertMismatch(7), extended code=<null>, reason=The cert from the remote server did not match the expected certificate (length mismatch).
Thrown in thread 396952 at:
tls/ossltransport.cpp(511)
Call Stack:

at Ip
at Vgd

Where is the mismatch error coming from? I have read so many articles on this and have re-installed the server so many times, I can't figure out for the life of me what I am doing wrong.

Please help!

Remote Desktop session establish problem

Dear concern,

I am using 200 RDS Device CALs. I am using 2 RDS server in workgroup environment. I installed RDS host and licensing role in my one server and installed 200 RDS CALs in this server. Also installed RDS host role in another server and map of the first one server as it's licensing server via local policy. Users randomly connect to these two server via Remote Desktop. Licensing server shown the 200 device CAL in console but when user connect to RDS server via thin client (non Microsoft endpoint) they can establish connection only for one hour and got a warning message"There is a problem with your license for Remote Desktop and the session will end in 60 minutes. Contact your system administrator to resolve this issue"then user forcibly disconnected. I had seen two things that RDS server didn't assign temporary license for thin client user and RDS license not count down, it fixed on 200.

Please response me ASAP.

Thanks,

Babu

RDS 2012R2 Issue

1.We have installed RDS (RDCB, RDSH, RDWeb) on one host. RDS service is working well without any errors. But if we open Server Manager->RDS we're getting "A Remote Desktop Services deployment does not exist in the server pool.
To create a deployment, run the Add Roles and Features Wizard and select the Remote Desktop Services installation option."

2. We get the same error after Get-RDServer - "The RD Connection Broker server is not available"

3. If we add Roles-> RDS Installation, the next error - "could not retrieve the deployment information from the rd connection broker"

4. If we add this server to Server Manager on another host we receive - "Kerberos Security Issue". All hosts was added to Trusted.

All RDS services are running (including WID). ServerManager and Posh running by Administrator.

How to resolve it?

Any ideas how to solve the problem?

RDS design limitations ?

$
0
0

Hi

I am doing a POC on RDS and I am currently running into some limitations that I hope someone here on the forum can help answer if those are indeed limitations or if what I try to do can be achieved in another way.

Explanation of environment.

1 datacenter site (6 RDS hosts)
11 large branch sites (2-3 RDS hosts in each branch)

Datacenter is publishing applications from central systems running in the datacenter

Branches are publishing applications from system running locally on the branches. Most of these local systems for several reasons have to run locally in the branches and it is mission critical for thin clients and computers running at the same local branch to have access to those local published applications 24/7. That means also when the WAN link to the datacenter should go down.

Published applications must be able to be launched from computers and mobile devices, from the internet. This should be archived with gateways and web access servers placed only in the Datacenter. We don't want to have internet facing servers running on our branch sites. Of course those local published apps on branches can only be launched from internet when the WAN link to the datacenter is up, but this is ok. Critical part is for local clients on the same site as the RDS hosts to be able to launch them if WAN should be down.

Design considerations

Since we don't want an individual deployment for each branch, where we would need internet facing gateway and web access servers on each branch, those should be placed in the datacenter, so the best fitting design here would be the below.

Datacenter: 2 x RDS gateway/Web access servers, 2 x connection broker, license server and 6 RDS hosts.
Branches: 2-3 RDS hosts
Collections: 1 for datacenter and 1 for each of the 11 branches.

This setup however would not allow clients to start locally published applications if the WAN link is down to that branch, since users in that branch cannot reach the Web access and broker in the datacenter.

Questions:

Is there any way around this or any way it could be designed to allow users to start local published apps (not desktops) when users cannot reach the broker and web access servers.

Can you setup that if a broker is not available, the remote apps will still launch, just without load balancing and the feature to reconnect to disconnected sessions. So it should just launch directly against RDS host servers (You could probably use DNS RR to then still get some kind of client distribution across the hosts) ?

When setting up remote desktop clients on phones and computers, they require a URL feed. This is pointed to the Web access server "https://server.domain/rdweb/feed/webfeed/xxxxxx.aspx" does this mean that the web access server is mandatory to even be able to launch remote apps or is there another way to launch them that doesn't rely on the Web access server ?

Thanks

Martin
