RD RDGateway 2012

Can someone in simple terms help me out with RDApp issue which is driving me mad.

I have an RD Web server explodes to the internet. If I hit the site with IE (from the web) I can log in and see all of my apps but when I try to run then the RD client cannot find the server. I think this is because the .rdp file contains the local name of the server which is secured behind the firewall and not exposed to the web. OK that makes sense.

So I installed a gateway server and exposed that to the web but if i point a browser to it using https://address/RDWEB I get a 404 error, I had assumed that the gateway would securely proxy connections to the web server. Wrong i guess.

So do I need to expose both the web and gateway server to the internet and manually configure the gateway settings in every users RDP client?

I had assumed it would work in a similar way to Citrix where the settings are sent to the client via the web portal.

Cheers,

Andy

Remote Desktop will not accept SSL Cert from GeoTrust

I have read through a ton of posts trying to find the answer to my question. We have a 2008 R2 Remote Desktop server and I am trying to get the GeoTrust certificate working on it. I have imported the certificate into the Certificates MMC under the Local Computer\Personal\Certificates folder. The certificate is valid and shows no issues when viewed in the Certificates MMC. The Enhanced Key Usage shows both Server Authentication and Client Authentication.

When I try to add the certificate through the RD Session Host Configuration MMC it says "There are no certificates installed on this Remote Desktop Session Host server"

When I try to run the rdconfig.js cscript as found in other posts it returns the error "rdconfig.js(38, 1) SWbemObjectEx: Invalid parameter"

When I try and run "wmic /namespace:\\root\CIMV2\TerminalServices PATH Win32_TSGeneralSetting Set SSLCertificateSHA1Hash="thumbprint"  it returns the error "Updating property(s) of '\\SERVER\root\CIMV2\TerminalServices:Win32_TSGeneralSetting.TerminalName="RDP-Tcp"' ERROR: Description = Invalid parameter"

I have no idea what else to try. I have even ran the command "certutil -repairstore my "thumbprint" as someone else recommended and it completes successfully with no error saying "Encryption test passed"

Why can't I get this certificate added to the RDP protocol binding?

Thanks

Remote Desktop Licensing Protocol error

I have spent the last 4 hours looking for solution online including Microsoft sites. So unless you have an EXACT match of solution to problem DO NOT tell me to TRY this or that in any article as I have probably already read it or tried it. 

OK onto the issue.

Brand new 2008 R2 SP1 standard Dell server. All updates applied. Joined as a stand alone server to domain. Remote desktop role installed. License server role installed. License server activated. 10 Per User RD (open License) Cals installed. Remote Desk Host Diagnostics gives clean bill of health. No other roles etc. installed. This is strictly a TS server.

Workstations are Wyse thin clients running Windows 7 Embedded. They can see all allowed resources on domain. they can get to the internet as well. network connectivity and navigation confirmed.

So.... When I start up RDP client on said terminals I get error of: The remote computer disconnected the session becase of an error in the licensing protocol.

Remeber this is a Windows 7 embedded. hacks to registry or file copy from other OSes do not apply.

And yes I checked with Wyse support.

other Misc data:

 No firewall activated on server

using the administrator account to attempt logon as it is already included in group. (Should not matter as it is a LICENSING  PROTOCOL error anyway)

It is part of a 2003 domain.

No I have not edited GP on 2003 system.

Yes the event log has been reviewed. I see NO entries for this issue.

 

IDEAS?????

RemoteFX configured and running - but still very slow

January 23, 2014, 10:59 pm

Hello!

The goal:

To install and test RemoteFX performance before purchase expensive server/vga.

The success so far:

  • installed and configured Windows 2008 R2 SP1 with Hyper-V
  • installed and configured Windows 7 Enterprice SP1 virtual machine with RemoteFX video adapter enabled
  • running Windows 7 SP1 client with the supported version (7.1) RDP
  • successful RDP connection and confirmed RemoteFX running (the shut down button + event with ID:2 on the VM and so on)
  • no errors/warnings in the event viewer, RDP client is 10mbit or more etc.. all settings seems to be perfect.

The hardware used (I know it's not a real server, but the idea is to "feel" the RemoteFX performance before purchase and for a single VM it's quite enough):

  • AMD 6800k (SLAT enabled) cpu
  • nVidia GTX560 1G GDDR5 (also tested with ATI R7 240 2G)
  • 8g DDR3 2400mhz memory

The problem:

The performance is.. let say the same as with the normal RDP connection. Pretty much no difference.

I checked almost every problem on the internet related to the RemoteFX, but without a single log/message I just can't do more.

The VGA is not Quadro/FirePro.. but from what I saw, the people are just using normal cards without any problems and for test purposes should be fine.

I also tried to install the cap driver (dism / ...), without any difference (actually I'm not 100% sure that this is needed, can someone explain?).

I'll be happy if someone can point me the way I can "debug" it.

Best!

Hi. 

If I will deploy the same application at two different RDSH servers, and publish it as RemoteApp in each server. Assuming that - can I connect to that application with one *.rdp file and further be balanced with RD connection broker?

May RD broker balance RemoteApp requests for the same application on different servers anyhow?

Two MSTSCs and one WKSPRT, oh de doo dah day!

January 16, 2014, 2:38 am

Hi,

I am implementing an enterprise SSO kiosk solution where we need to track the launch AND termination of an RDP session so if the session times out the workstation locks. Sounds simple? Not anymore.

We're using RDS 2012 R2 and the current Remote Desktop for Win7 (8.0), and it does some really bizarre process chaining to the point where it is just, well, unpredictable.

Using procmon we can see consistently that the workflow when launching the RDP file which connect to an RDS broker is as follows:

  1. mstsc.exe launches
  2. wksprt.exe (RemoteApp and Desktop Connection runtime) starts
  3. A new mstsc.exe process starts up.
  4. The original mstsc.exe then exits (sometimes!)
  5. wksprt.exe continues running.
  6. User disconnects or RDS session times out
  7. wksprt.exe terminates the mstsc.exe process it started OR
  8. the original one terminates
  9. About 7 seconds later, if either mstsc.exe session is still running, it terminates

The problem with this is it makes it nigh on impossible to properly monitor the user logon/logout workflow in any consistent way! We don't know from one iteration to the next, what it's going to do.

If we track the first MSTSC process only, we correctly detect the user logon AND the session disconnect from the client side, but only if that first instance is the one that presents the connection dialog. Every now and again the second MSTSC process is the one that presents the UI, not the first one, so step 4 leads us to think the user's RDP session has terminated when it's actually only just starting up.

And my particular favourite... every now and then, one MSTSC.EXE instance dies when the user disconnects but the other one sticks around for 7-8 seconds so if you place a dependency on the "logout detection" on BOTH instances disappearing there's an 8 second window where the PC is sat unlocked and anyone can break into the thin client desktop.

And of course, wksprt.exe doesn't die unless you kill it manually.

Window focus tracking works partially, but we don't want to end up having to do weird stuff like mitigating a user pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL and breaking out to the local desktop by booting them out of their RDS session.

Does anyone have any ideas on how best to tackle this?

"Access Denied" in RDS/TS Session

I have a TS/RDS Win2008 R2 installed since 2010, single machine running RDS+TS Gateway and TS Web, digital certs and everything is working fine. NO patches were installed on TS Server and no patches on the client side wre installed in the last week.

I have 15 simultaneous users and only 1 user with the "access denied" error. Until last week everyting was working fine for him. WInows 7 client. I have several RemoteApp published, all of then are showing the "access denied" error. If the user try to logon directy using TS session with full desktop, same error.

Today a user called with a "Access Denied" error. That´s it." The RDS blue screen with the "Access Denied" and the "OK" button below.

The procmon.exe show no "sccess denied" occurrences in the registry or file system

The RDS Servide is running as NETWORK SERVICE privilege, OK

I´ve deleted the user profile, nothing. And i´ve noticed that after deleteing the profile, the new profile is not being created

I copied the AD user to a new one and the copied user cannot logon also. Bu if i try to create a new/fresh user only in the global groups related to the TS Web, the newly created user can login with no problem. The groups the user belongs to are standard groups, no deny access exist on any gruoups the user belongs to in an y place (i rarely us "deny" permissions or privileges)

Any tips?

Certificates for load balanced Web Access hosts

We are going to set up and load balance 2 Web Access hosts (Server 2012 R2) for our RDS deployment. The load balancing will be handled by a Cisco ACE. In a single node Web Access deployment, it is straightforward how to request the certificate: Go through the standard IIS process with the FQDN and service name, install, export the client cert and you are ready to go.

How should I do this with the 2 nodes? Load balancing and ACE are both WAY outside of my wheelhouse. I was thinking I would request multi-domain certs for both servers with the FQDN of each along with the service name, but our network engineer recommended against that.

Can anyone offer me any basic guidance?

RemoteFX Usb Redirection in Remote Desktop Session Host Blue Screen

We are using RDSH on a hyper-v virtual guest Server 2012. When two thin clients connect using USB Redirection with a USB scale attached, the host blue screens. The error below is from the Memory.DMP file. 

Duplicate PDO
A specific instance of a driver has enumerated multiple PDOs with
identical device id and unique ids.          

Any pointers on this error would be appreciated. I understand RemoteFX Usb Redirection is supported with VDI. I'm under the impression (perhaps incorrectly) that this set up should work with an RDSH server as well.

RDS 2012 R2 RemoteApp Server Name Mismatch

January 27, 2014, 9:13 am

Hi All,

I wonder if someone can scratch my head on this.

Brand new RDS 2012 R2 deployment.

  • RDS01 with Connection Broker and Session Host Roles installed
  • RDS02 with Web Access and Gateway roles installed
  • one ssl certificate with one domain remote.mycompany.com 
  • the certificate have been imported to all the servers via the Edit Deployment
  • the local domain is mycompany.local

the problem that i am having is that when i launch RemoteApp after login in the remote.mycompany.com externally, i get Certificate mismatch, because it is contact the local name of the Session host server RDS01.

What i tried so far.

  1. Used the Set-PublishName (http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Change-published-FQDN-for-2a029b80) without success
  2. Try to configure RDS01 certificate via (http://ryanmangansitblog.wordpress.com/2013/03/10/configuring-rds-2012-certificates-and-sso/)
  3. Check Any resources ( http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d1b0ebe4-9e53-47ff-8c75-43fd91ff538a/windows-2012-rds-certificate-mismatch?forum=winserverTS)

Has anybody out there could shade me some knowledge in how to rectify the mismatch name warning.

Thanks

I have one user who continues to receive this error every time he try's to RDP to this server Windows Server (2008) Enterprise SP2. No other users receive this error when they RDP to the server.

I used this workaround...

Windows Server 2008 (SP1 or SP2)

1. Logon to the Terminal Services computer as an administrator
2. Start--Run gpedit.msc, click Continue if prompted by UAC
3. In the left pane, under Computer Configuration, navigate to following:

Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Terminal Services\Terminal Server\Remote Session Environment

4. In the right pane, double-click on Set compression algorithm for RDP data
5. Select Enabled, and choose Balances memory and network bandwidth
6. Click OK to save the change

This did not resolve my issue.

Remote WebApp single sign-on not working on Win2012

I've found a lot of articles on this problem with Windows 2008 remote desktop servers, but nothing I can find pertains to Windows 2012 RDS.  According to the documentation it's supposed to work more easily with 2012, but it is not working in my environment.  The environment is simple: I have a single Windows 2012 server with all of the roles installed on it - RD Gateway, RD Licensing, RD Web Access, RD Session Host and RD Connection Broker.  The internal and external server names are the same, and I have a GoDaddy UCC certificate that is set up as Trusted for the RD Connection broker for single sign-on and publishing, as well as for RD Web Access and Gateway services.  I'm stumped as to where to go from here to get this to work.  I've tried a few of the suggestions from the Windows 2008 server articles, including editing the renderscripts.js file, but the symptom remains the same.

What happens is that the initial sign-on to the web site is fine, but when a user tries to open an app, they get the logon dialog box shown at the end of this post. This happens whether connecting internally or externally. Typing in the password allows the user to run the apps, and after that they aren't prompted to log in again for other apps. There are no event log errors that I can find either on the server or client.  Depending on the operating system, some of the error dialogs look slightly different, showing that the logon that fails is to "server.domain.com."  I can't figure out how to fix this, so any help would be appreciated.

Deb
