Any official material can cover?

Thanks!


Event ID 1301 ->1296 -> 1306: Connection Broker Client Failed to Redirect

$
0
0

Good afternoon everyone; 

Once again I've hit a wall in deploying RD services. The scenario is as stated: 

A non-administrator domain user is trying to log into one of the pooled virtual desktops (running windows 7).

Said user gets prompted from windows security to login with their domain credentials; but instead of being directed to the Virtual Desktop, this user is redirected to a second logon session for the actual server. 

IE: User\Administrator has a logged in session where he/she see's server manager, with Hyper V etc all running. 

[Please note: When User\Administrator attempts to log into the remote desktop services that account is redirected to one of the pooled VMs. As well both the Administrator and non-admin accounts are on the access list for the pooled vms in the settings of the golden template, and in the usergroup of the collection]

When User\Non-Administrator has logged in they just see another copy of Server 2012 running with the same "Data Retrieval Failure" error on all the server roles. 

While checking the event viewer the series of verbose/error codes were as such. 

Verbose 1301: Connection Broker Received the non-admin's request for redirection

Error 1296: Connection Broker Client failed while getting redirection packet from Connection Broker

Error 1306: Connection Broker Client Failed to redirect the user User\non-admin. 

Now I went though the troubleshooting illustrated here: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee890979(WS.10).aspx

It's not a network issue, since I can ping from the server straight through to my router, user desktop, firewall, primary DNS, Alternate DNS, and all the little NIC's inbetween. 

Has anyone else encountered this issue?


RDP screen goes black after successful remote login

$

I have a Windows 2008 Server that I have been connecting to once a month remotely to apply OS updates.  Often, I reboot that server and it uses auto-logon to login and run an application. 

Today, I rebooted the server and when I try to connect with RDP, I get the login prompt and enter my credentials, I see a few expected messages fly by on the host OS (the last one I see is the word Welcome), but then the screen goes black.

The apps on the server are running successfully because our applications can connect to them, we just can't logon to the desktop of the Windows Server 2008.

I made no configuration changes (I NEVER do) other than to apply the latest Windows Server updates.

I would prefer not to drive to the computers location, or try to coordinate a time to have the server hosting company assist me with troubleshooting; but is there anything else I can do?  Any ideas about what might cause this?

ThinClient Licensing

We need advisory on ThinClient licensing for the below scenario.

Scenario:

We need to install Linux based thin client set up at our premises and following services will be installed on server:

  1. Remote Desktop Gateway
  2. Remote Desktop Licensing
  3. Remote Desktop Session Host

So what will be our licensing needs whether we required an RDS CAL with Windows Server CAL only or we need VDA rights (for thin client) with RDS & Win Svr CAL ?

Since we also have N numbers of RDS CAL available and installed in Citrix Server to access the Application. So, can we use these CAL and install them in “Remote Desktop Licensing Server” simultaneously.

RDS Certificate Renewal

Hi Guys,

Need one help in renewing certificate for Remote Desktop Service in Windows server 2008-R2

applications availability on RDSHs

in my recent post (yesterday June 10) "isolate" access to RDSH hosts in RDS farm I created kind of abracadabra question by involving RemoteApp and Appv for explanation of my needs.

I want to ask just the basic question about Apps installation on RDSHs and functionnality of connections redirection in RDS 2012 R2 environment.

So...

in evironment with 2 RDSH hosts and 2 brokers (load balancing configured) the same apps are installed on both RDSHs.
What will happen  if third RDSH will be added to the farm but will not have any applications installed?

Would all connections be distributed between 2 RDSHs having the apps and the trird one will not be involved because it doesn`t have any apps.?

or broker will do:
first user will be connected to RDSH1, second to RDSH2 and 3 to RDSH 3 that doesn`t have any application and connection will fail?

Is there way to remove Remote Desktop option from RD Web Access page?

$

We are trying to implement RDS to replace our aging Citrix Metaframe XP farm. The only functionality we need at this time is to give users a couple of applications to run remotely via RDS Web Access. We don't use (and not planning to use in the near future) Remote Desktop or VDI fuctionality. Is there a way to remove the Remote Desktop option from the top of the page on RDS Web Access, and just leave RemoteApp Programs one? I see an option to remove RDP icon from RemoteApp page, but can't seem to find a way to remove the link to this option all together.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

2008 R2 RDS Cals Upgrading to 2012 R2 RDS

So we have a single server 2008 r2 machine that is running RDS.

We are looking to upgrade this to Server 2012 R2, and from what I have been reading my best way would probably to rebuild.

My main question is what about the cals. As there will be only one RDS server, am I correct that I would have to get the 2012 R2 cals as you cannot "upgrade" the 2008 r2 cals

Hello,

I'm performing an VDI, and I like to have two different networks, one with the RDS servers (Virtualization Hosts, Licensing, Connection Broker and Web access), and one with the Domain Controllers. I have a Firewall between the networks. Can I do it? How? Which ports should he allow?

Indexing "User Profile Disk" on a File server Outlook Starts indexing OST file from Scratch when user logs off and on

Hi there

We have 2 x 2012 R2 Session hosts running and am using redirected profile disks which works a treat apart from windows search indexing.

session hosts have the windows search service installed and I have checked the the mapiph.dll file is present.

When a users logs off the search index is deleted so that when the user logs on and launches outlook the OST file starts indexing from scratch.

Users with small OST files don't notice however senior company directors that have large OST files can take the whole day thus resulting in incompleted searches.

Urgent help would be most appreciated

Hi Folks,

I am working to implement RDS in my environment. I have created additional pages to be displayed.

Here is what I am looking to do.

1. Drop the display of Folders on the Web Access
2. Published RemoteApps with a folder name
3. Map the "Folder Name" to specific Page.

For example, If a an app has a folder name RoomMaster, I would like the app to be displayed on the RoomMaster Page, etc.



Any insight if this is possible would be greatly appreciated. :)

Thank You!

Multiple sign-ins using RDG

Hello,

I have a problem with ' to many' logins which are needed for the Remote Desktop Gateway I'm using. I have looked around the forum and found two post which are close to my case (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/a0814222-e8b0-4f1f-a4ab-c79519dd20fa/remote-desktop-gateway-and-webaccess-deployment-multiple-logon-prompts?forum=winserverTS and https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/526af0a6-6bf1-4fff-befc-3ab121de866e/need-to-enter-credentials-three-times-to-take-rdp-of-users-desktop?forum=winserverTS)

The difference I have is that I'm using the RDG to serve multiple domains. Therefor I decided to put it into a workgroup as the proposed solution above (SSO) would work for one domain only, not for the others.

Is there any way to skip the RDG credential popup (especially since you authenticate on the website already).

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Kees

VM activity monitoring

We've just deployed a bunch of Windows 7 VDIs on our 2012 R2 Hyper-V environment and are looking for a way to determine which of them have current user activity, much like we were able to do in our old Server 2003 Terminal Services (via the Terminal Services Manager). Using the Configuration Manager we can establish Remote Control sessions to the VDIs but we are looking for a way to see if a user is logged in as well as if there is any current activity. Is there a way to do this natively or are there any third party apps that provide this functionality?

Remote Desktop Licensing with Local / Workgroup Accounts (No Domain Controller)

$
0
0

My goal is to allow a single standalone 2012 R2 system RDP access from more than 2 users simultaneously, in an environment that doesn't have any other existing servers at all (very small office/business). Remote users simply need access to the system for utilizing a finance application when they aren't on location with access to shared files.

User accounts are all local accounts - no Active Directory role installed/configured as of now (I attempted configuring a domain, but abandoned it when the system encountered a BSOD after every reboot as soon as the role had been installed - didn't have the necessary time to troubleshoot).

I've installed the terminal services license server role, activated the license server, installed a terminal services per-user license key.

Since there's no domain, the normal management tools don't function, and I have to configure things from the registry.

I set the remote desktop licensing mode by changing the value of this key (set from regedit):

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\RCM\Licensing Core > LicencingMode = 4

Also tried to configure the system to point to itself as the specified license server based on a comment from this TechNet article

reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\TermService\Parameters\LicenseServers" /v SpecifiedLicenseServers /t REG_MULTI_SZ /d "192.168.1.50" /f

However, it doesn't appear that remote connections pull from the activated license just yet, and I'm still limited to 2 logins. I'm not very familiar with this process, but I believe all the steps listed for configuring the license server and RD session host server are completed here...

Is there something I've missed? Or is this even possible? If I absolutely must use a domain, it wouldn't be too much trouble to install the HyperV role (since best practices are clearly already being thrown aside), and configure a VM a the DC, and perhaps another as the license server if need be.

I appreciate any help or guidance that can be provided! 

Remote Desktop for external users not working

$

Hi Friends,

We are facing unique issue on couple of Windows 2008 R2 servers. Remote Desktop for internal network users is working while for external users it is not working. Network team is able to see requests coming on the firewall but they don't see the response going back. I also setup wireshark packet filtering on the server and I can see SYN packets coming on the server but server is not responding back with SYN/ACK. There are two interfaces on the server and none of the interface is generating response. Below is my packet capturing where we can see retransmission (Sorry my account hasn't been verified yet so couldn't paste packte cap).

I verified logs also but I couldn't find anything suspicious. I also checked for this bug but couldn't generate the behaviour.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Vj
