First of all, I know this topic has been discussed everywhere, but I feel like my case is slightly different from others.
First of all, in our company, we have one physical server running with Windows Server 2012 and Active Directory running on it (with about 20 users). We have some services that client computers need to access through Remote Connection, the regular Remote Desktop Client connection would be totally fine, but as I understand, without the RDS Role we cannot have more than 2 connections simultaneously (+ admin).
The problem is that 1) I know RDS on AD is not recommended and considered a big security risk and 2) I cannot get the service to run properly anyway.
Since I don't need most of the features that RDS comes with anyway, is there a way I can just install one or two roles that it requires, so we can have more connections (I have the RDS CAL license for it).
If it's possible, which roles of RDS are necessary for such type of a setup?
Best regards,
Rauno
