Hi,


My environment is :


1 x TS Server domain-joined Remote Desktop Session Host Role on Windows Server 2016 (Network Level Authentication enabled).

1 x APP Server domain-joined windows Server 2016 (Network Level Authentication disabled )



Both server windows firewall is disabled.



I have domain user called UserA on created DC. Both server local remote desktop users group already added.



When attempting to connect to APP server through RDP on TS Server then I got the following the error.



An internal error has occurred error.


I have checked regedit about NLA on both server.



TS Server : Y_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp SecurityLayer:2



APP Server : Y_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp SecurityLayer:2

Desktop background and color

$

Hello,

I'm looking for some tips on how to use GP set the background color of the desktop, and/or taskbar (not as important). Server 2016 session host servers providing a full published desktop.

Why?

Some of my sites have low bandwidth so I want to force the background wallpaper to be removed (done), and to change the remaining desktop color to something other than black (not done).

Any tips?

I have:

  • I have used GP to remove the desktop wallpaper. Now the background is black, with a black task bar
    GP > Computer Config > Admin Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Remote Session Environment

This is not the correct setting:

  • GP > Computer Config > Admin Templates > Control Panel > Personalization > Force a specific background and accent color
    (this is actually controlling the start menu colors)

I am hoping there is a more efficient way to control this other than setting a background image of one color and XX pixels in size.

Licenses and Expiration

$

Installed a new 2019 RDS license Server and 2019 Per User CALS. The old license server was 2016. 

1. The RDS Servers right now are 2016 so when a user logged in i see a built-in Overused licence being used. Do i need to install 2016 User licenses or ok since i have the 2019 licenses installed. We plan to move to 2019 over the next 7 months

2. If a license is being used on the old license server do i have to wait until it expires before it will try to contact the new server and then will start using licenses on the new server?

VDI or Session based RDP on Windows server 2019 with user cal

$

Hello,


FYI, I am using windows server 2019 Eval version. we want to work out the setup before acquiring licenses from MS.

All windows machines(servers, windows-10) described below are deployed as VM's on Dell server with VMware esxi.

We have a lab where in we need to log on to Jump-Server (WINDOWS-SERVER-2019) using RDP.

from this Jump-Server, I need to log on to 

  1. Windows-Server using RDP client on Jump-Server.
  2. Windows-10 machine using RDP client on Jump-Server

I understand we must install RDP services in the Jump-Server & Windows server. 

--------

what I have at the moment is:

Jump-Server has services:

  1. Domain Controller
  2. RD Gateway
  3. RD Web Access
  4. RD Connection Broker
  5. RD Session HOST

Windows-Server has services:

> RD Licensing
> RD Session HOST.

After configuring the Session based RDP, I'm able to get into Jump-Server.

But when I try RDP client (inside Jump-Server) to connect to Windows-Server. I get error message "An internal error has occurred"

Query-1: how to configure Session based RDS host on Jump-Server & Windows-Server, so that with same user could login to Windows-Server after getting into Jump-Server?

---------

Configure RDP for Windows-10 VM's:

Theoritically I understand, I should:
Add windows-10 vm into same domain
add this vm into RD Session Host. 

Query-2: is this correct or do we need extra device cal AND/OR USER cal to connect via RDP client from Jump-server above?

Thanks in Advance,

Webcam redirection not working 2012R2 collection

$

Hi,

I'm trying to redirect a Microsoft USB LifeCam Cinema to a 2012R2 collection. So far without success:

- On the local W10P PC, RDP Connection, Local Resources, More: "Under Other supported RemoteFX USB devices" the webcam is listed and the device selected

- In the collection under "Client Settings", "Enable redirection for the following" all devices are selected

- When I connect to one of the session hosts the webcam is not redirected and in the RD connectionbar the device doesn't show up

- In the session host event protocoll, under RemoteDesktopServices-RdpCoreTS, event 258 is logged: The session doesn't use further RemoteFX-RemoteApp-Graphics

The RDS session hosts run on a hyper-v cluster, also 2012R2. The session, client to RDS session host runs over a VPN connection.

What else could I try? Or which trouble shooting steps could I take?

Thanks and regards

Ueli


Upgrading RDS 2016 to RDS 2019 (Broker cannot be readded to HA)

$

Hey Guys,

I have a RDS Broker HA setup and wanted to upgrade the first broker to Server 2019. 
I removed the broker from the farm. Maybe i didnt have to do that, but i saw an article telling me to remove the broker from the farm in order to maintain availability to the RDS environment. So i did.
Once removed i upgraded the server to Server 2019. Now, when i try to readd the server to the farm i get a failure message saying "The list of joined servers could not be retrieved on server <servername of 2019>. Priviledge not held".

I wonder what priviledge its talking about? 
Did i brake the setup with the removal of the broker from the farm? I know, once broken, i have to rebuild everything. Is that the case?


RDP timeout from Windows Server 2008 R2 to another Win2K12 or 2008

$

We have a user who is trying to RDP into a different companies Windows Server through a site to site tunnel. The user is getting timeouts. I have now set  the Keep alive interval, Idle session limit and Active session limit through group policy to be applied to this server. This is a server desktop (server 2008 R2) through Citrix that the user is trying to access and from within that session she is trying to initiate an RDP session to the other side of the tunnel and access the server. She is getting RDP session timeout shown below. Now, I am not sure whether the other end they have kept the keep alive and idle session.But, I have enabled it on our end as this being the client from which the user is initiating the RDP. Is it wrong or should it be initiated on the other end only?

User gets Access Denied launching remote app after working without a problem previously

$

Looking for some assistance in starting to debug an issue which is causing a lot of user frustration. We have a small scale Remote Desktop Services. Single management server and singe session host server.

Users can login to the RD Web Access and launch a remote app without an issue and work as normal. All of a sudden at some point in the day or on another day after disconnecting and reconnecting they now get a Access Denied message when launching the remote app and logging in. 

The only way to resolve this issue is by rebooting the session host server. We have now resorted to rebooting the session host server every evening but still get the issue appearing at some point later in the day around 17:00.

We cannot see anything obvious in the event logs.

Many thanks in advance for any assistance or guidance.



Remote Desktop Services License Server

I am looking for best practises when it comes to RDS License Servers in a greenfield environment.

If you build two I assume you put your full license count on both servers and they run as active/active? Or would you have one powered down and power on if required?

IF the RDS License server (configured for Per User licensing) went offline,is there a period where users will continute to log in or they can't until the License Server is back online?

Remote Desktop deployment Fails: Unable to create the session collection

Hello all!

I am trying to install Remote Desktop Services (Roles: RD Connection, RD Session Host, RD Web Access) on Server 2019 that was previouse installed on the same server, where at the time it was on Server 2008 R2. This is a part of a server upgrade. Before upgrading the server I uninstalled the RDS roles then upgraded it from 2008t2 -> 2012 ->2012r2-> 2019. Up running the RDS deployment I am stuck at what is shown in the screen shot. I don't have a background in RDS so I have just been following guides and blogs but can't see me to find anything on this error. I am guessing there is a specific group policy that I need to create? 

In case you can't see it full, the error reads as follows:

Failed:
Unable to create the session collection. The property UserAuthenticationRequired is configured by using Group Policy settings. Use the Group Policy Management Console to configure this property.

Taskbar shortcuts are duplicated

Hello everyone)

There was such a problem.

There is a farm (2 brokers, 12 hosts, a gate). There are published applications. When you open the application, 2 shortcuts appear on the taskbar in user machines. 1 - mstsc, 2 - published application.

Connection goes through RDGW. I don’t understand which way to dig. The problem is mildly floating.
For some employees this is present (Win7-10), for some not.

Maybe someone has already encountered a similar ...?

RDS deployment type

Hi,

I deployed RDS using (Add roles and Features Winzard) and (Role-based or feature-based installation) and chose (Remote Desktop Services). However, I don't have control of some settings that I see when I deploy using the option (Remote Desktop Services installation) and Quick start.

For example:

In QuickSessionCollection on proprieties I have several options like: (User Groups, Sessions, Security, Client Settings and User Profiles Disk).

But when I chose Quick Start he installed RD Web Access, but I don't want to use it.

I want to use only (Remote Desktop Session Host), but I want to have this configuration console with all these options.

Could I install RDS using Quick Start and then remove RD Web Access for example? Or is there any other way to use only the RD Session host but have all these option controls like: (User Groups, Sessions, Security, Client Settings and User Profiles Disk)?


Thank you.

Windows RDWEB anonymous authentication

Hi All

We want to publish an application through RDWEB, and this app got its own user name and password (not ad integrated).

We want anyone from internet who can access our rdweb url (https://server.com/rdweb) to be able to see the app without prompts for credential and the user will open the app and enter his credentials to work with it.

Basically these users will be using their own laptops and would not have any credentials in company domain other than username and password for the app.

Any suggestions ?

RDS 2016 License server error TSLS group, plus licenses never show issued, and auditing does not show any licenses issued

$

I have a brand new WORKING license server for 2016 RDS.   By working I mean, I have a 2012 R2 session host that has its trial expired, but when pointed to this server, it allows users to logon. (when it won't logon otherwise)  

The problem is that I need it to audit my license usage, and less of a problem, but I am annoyed by the configuration error (which I suspect is related to my problem) which states it cannot determine the status of the TSLS group.

The issue appears to be some kind of AD communication issue, but I have another server in another subnet (and AD site) which works fine.     This particular site in AWS, but it has local domain controllers, and doing a network trace shows it only connects to them and makes no attempts to go elsewhere.   It also shows LDAP queries for the TS information succeed.     

Again, license server works fine, but it does not show any licenses with the status of "issued" and if I create a report, it has zero linfo in it.  (as if none have ever been checked out)

I build a second 2016 TS license server in AWS, and it exactly replicated the issue..  At this point I can't really think of what might be causing the issue.  

Googling the errors I have found so far has resulted in a few people with similar issues, but none with a solution.  I'm not sure this problem is worth a $500 MS support ticket, but it seems someone out there should have solved this before..  Everything is super generic here..
