Weird RDS Server 2019 License Issue

$
0
0

So I am setting up a new RDS configuration. I have the all of the RDS roles installed on one server except the license server. It is on a Domain Controller. Here is what I am seeing when a user logs into the RD server. 

  1. Open a remote desktop session on the RDP server. Licensing Manager then shows this. That’s good.
  2. Click on the license details and you can see that it issued a license to one user. That’s good.
  3. Run a report to see User Cal usage. Still looks good.
  4. Go back to Server name, REFRESH the view, and now I have 10 licenses available, 0 issued. User is still logged in and the only thing I did was run the report.
  5. Go to the RD License and the issued license is gone. When the issued license is in here, I cant revoke it, but running the reports sure does revoke it.

Has anyone seen this before? Am I doing something wrong? Please help!

Microsoft Edge access the to RD Web Access site - RDP and wrong credentials

$

We have RD Web on 2016 server (we use this server for administrative work on our network).  The users access from RD Web from  their desktops(using standard user credentials). When logging in to RD Web, the users us their administrative accounts (domain admin). 

The users are able to run the remoteapps using IE11.

When using Microsoft Edge, accessing the remoteapps, RDP file is downloaded. I don't mind that.  But, the connection wants to use the standard  credentials instead of the admin account used to logon to web server. This does not happen in IE11. 

How do I solve the credential issue in Microsoft Edge with the Remote Apps?

Thank you.

Dear readers I have the following issue when a user wants to reset their password via the RDWeb password reset.aspx

"Your password cannot be changed. Please contact your administrator for assistance." 

What I have done so far : 

- Went into the IIS Manager and set the "PasswordChangeEnabled" to true.
- Reset the IIS Manager via CMD.
- Activated the logging (which doesn't work by the way).
- Rebooted the host & client to be sure.

Does anyone else have this problem aswell or does someone know the solution to said problem?

Hope to hear from someone.

Kind regards,

Remote Desktop Services Profile tab - User properties in Active Directory

I have a single domain controller. I am setting up profile path in Remote Desktop Services Profile tab for Vaidee(user). I have allowed vaidee to logon locally and through remote desktop services. I added him to Remote Desktop Users group. Even though he is not a domain admin, he can still login to the domain controller. When Vaidee logged in to the domain controller using Remote Desktop connection, the profile is not created in the specified location(C:\RemoteProfile\Vaidee).

Is there anything that I am missing?

Server 2016 RDS Start Menu and Taskbar Issues

$
0
0

We're running a single RDS setup with Windows Server 2016 Standard and about 2 weeks back we started to experience Windows Start Menu and Taskbar issues where these functions would suddenly stop working for all of the RDS users.  We are not using profile disks and each user connects to the RDS via our gateway server and their profile is stored locally on the RDS server.  No desktop or Start Menu redirection is setup.  We have 25 RDS CALs and there's normally about 20 users logged into the RDS server.  The server is a physical server running a 12core Intel CPU with 32Gb of RAM and an NVME SSD Intel disk.

The desktop apps like Microsoft Office will continue to function fine but if you minimize the running apps, the user can not click on the minimized apps as the Taskbar doesn't respond along with the Start Menu.  The only thing that currently works is to logout the user session using Task Manager or to reboot the server.  When the user reconnects and gets a new session, the Start Menu and Taskbar will work for several hours before it goes back to the locked state.

I have read quite a few posts and I have re-installed the Windows apps with the following PS script:

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}

I have run a full sfc /scannow and checked the health of the windows image.  These all complete fine without issue.

Tonight I have found some older posts from 2017 about Server 2016 RDS black screens that are caused by duplicate Windows firewall rules getting created for each user every time they login.  While we don't have the black screen issue, I'm wondering if our issues with the Start Menu and Taskbar could be related to this same duplicate firewall rules for each user.  When I checkedHKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\RestrictedServices\Configurable\System on our RDS, I am seeing thousands of entries.

Does anyone know if these duplicate firewall rules can cause the Start Menu and Taskbar issues?  If so, what's the proper way to delete them?

Thanks for any input.

RD gateway not working after windows update- your computer can't connect to the remote desktop gateway server. Contact your network administrator for assistance

$

I have about 200 users running mostly remoteApp from many different locations. 95% of them work fine. I do have RDGateway but it is configured to bypass the RDGateway in the setup if it can connect to the broker. Things have been working fine for the past year or so. Recently on the last set up updates for windows 10 machines, they receive the error "Your computer can't connect to the remote desktop gateway server. Contact your network administrator for assistance" as soon as they try and launch and RemoteApp application.

The fix is this.

https://appuals.com/fix-your-computer-cant-connect-to-the-remote-desktop-gateway-server/

It forces it to disable UDP and use HTTP instead. As far as I can tell nothing has changed on the network and UDP is still open and clients are able to connect to it.

Has anyone ran into this?

Accessing recently build RDS server does not trigger MFA authentication

I built a 2016 RDS/RD Gateway VM with roles of RD Access, RD Gateway, NPS, Licensing server, RD Broker.

I have installed the MFA agent configured the same as other RDS Servers.

The new server is named RDS-GW and the gateway portion is working properly, however, I cannot get the MFA to trigger when trying to access from outside of our network, or within the network on an untrusted IP range.

When configuring the MFA agent, all other MFA servers are listed.

All other RDS servers are triggering the MFA when trying to connect to them.

Any help will be appreciated.


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.

Implementing 2nd Remote Desktop Server - Question

$
0
0

Hello, I currently have a Remote Desktop Server "Windows Server 2012 R2" running in a small but busy Accounting Office and it's working great but during last tax season it bogged down from time to time so we are considering implementing a 2nd Remote Desktop Server to help service the load..

Here's some details:

1 - Approx 30 Users running MSOffice and Accounting Apps connecting via RDWeb to run Apps..

2 - The current RDS is a Physical installation with no Gateway as there's no external access at this time to limit security issues.

Question: My plan is to install a New Host "Windows Server 2016" and implement the new RDS as a Virtual Server and I'm not sure if I should tie it back to the current Physical so it can manage the load balancing or if I should just set this up as a separate standalone and just instruct the users how to access each server.. 

My concern is if I tie it to the Physical RDS and there's a problem with the physical server then will it prevent users from accessing the new Virtual RDS.. 

Thanks for you help...Scott

Hi,

Trust you are well.

We currently have 5000 client access license (CAL’s) which is registered to domain AUTOMATE-FAC.AUTOMATE.CO.ZA

I would like to split the CAL’s into the following domains.

  1. 2500 into AUTOMATE-FAC.AUTOMATE.CO.ZA
  2. 2500 into af.didata.local

Computer getting internal error when trying to connect

Hi

We are having a strange error with a windows 10 (1903) trying to RDP to a windows 2016 server. We receiving an error An internal error has occurred. We can however, rdp to other servers. We tried different profiles also and same error message. If we reboot the RDS server it is okay for a few days... There are no other error messages. It was working previously then just broke. Also the firewalls are disabled on both sides. 

User login stuck in loop, screen flashing

$
0
0

Using 2016 server using Failover Cluster Manager running multiple VMs and RDS setup. 

On one specific Vm for just a few of the users when they try to login the screen just keeps flashing and the login is never successful.  Only a reboot of the VM fixes the problem temporarily but then it is back the next day. 

All user accounts are domain accounts. 

The error log shows this - 

Faulting application name: explorer.exe, version: 10.0.14393.3053, time stamp: 0x5d01d1c5
Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 10.0.14393.2969, time stamp: 0x5ccd148a
Exception code: 0xc0000409
Fault offset: 0x0000000000095ebf
Faulting process id: 0x2220
Faulting application start time: 0x01d54571ddd16db0
Faulting application path: C:\Windows\explorer.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll
Report Id: 55df0ec3-4338-4090-afdf-c0657411d218
Faulting package full name: 
Faulting package-relative application ID: 

I have done a fair bit of googling and this seems to be a fairly common issue with no obvious fix other than to rebuild the VM from scratch. 

The thing is it only applies to certain user accounts on the VM not all of them and when the issue is present I can still login with the domain admin account with no problems. 

So couple of questions - 

1) If it is only specific user accounts that display this problem does that suggest that it is not an issue with the VM or is that a false assmumption ? 

2) If it just the user accounts then what I want to do is create new accounts for these users but then I need to replicate their profile in terms of desktop settings etc. 

Can someone tell me how to go about doing that ? 

Any help or suggestions on the above would be much appreciated.

hi there,

just followed the following article to create RDP web client, and it works.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-web-client-admin

however, we found that we couldn't type in any non-English language, such as Chinese, in any applications launched.

just wondering if anyone has similar issue, and are there any fix?
