Re: RDP to Server Broken After Security Patch

Have you had someone onsite reboot the server?
A reboot was required after this patch.
Was this the only patch installed at this time?

Thursday night after the alert for the security update (MS08-067) I lost remote access to my server with RDP through remote desktop and RWW. I've verified the remote check mark in computer/properties/remote. I reran the ICW. I've verified the SBS RDP rule in the ISA. Any suggestions on what to try?

This is a fully patched SBS2003 Premium with both ISA and SQL running. Remote desktop was working fine up until the reboot for the security patch. I have two other customer machines with the same problem. So I figure I better fix mine first and learn here without the customer watching.

Thanks for any suggestions, I must be missing something obvious.
