Re: RWW and Remote desktop stopped working on all clients

Thanks Cris for helping!

XP SP3 went out via WSUS about 2 weeks ago. The only update applied since
11/13 was the XML Core Services SP2, and that went out last night. (This
update stays it's not removable - I hope this could not have somthign to do
with it?)

Recent changes:
The win2003 server was just added last Friday as a member server, static IP.
On MOnday morning I saw that it kept losing the default gateway setting from
the router to SBS's IP, and I found an article stating that the SBS login
script would do this, so I changed the administrator account to not use that
script. That problem was solved. Domain Users still use the sbs login
script, which has not been changed except for a drive mapping. The first
client reported to have the trouble I have not logged on to as admin in
several weeks, and the user connected via RWW just last week (Thursday or
Friday)

Something went belly up and I jsut can't seem to pinpoint it. I *did* find
ONE machine I was able to connect to via RDP, logged in as admin, and almost
immediately the connection dropped so I'm suspecting the login script for
Administrator not using SBS_LOGIN_SCRIPT.bat - I removed the line
\\LSGSBS\Clients\Setup\setup.exe /s LSGSBS from a copy of
SBS_LOGIN_SCRIPT.bat and set teh admin account to use that. however, after
loggin in to the workstation that initially reported teh problem using a
normal user account, I still am unable to connect to the client via RDP.

The remaining lines in the login script:

NET USE U: \\LSGSBS\Users
NET USE P: \\LSGSBS\Public
netsh firewall set service REMOTEADMIN enable
echo logon %username% %computername% %date% %time% %sessionname% >>
\\lsgsbs\e$\Audit_Logs\logon.log

As I said earlier I can connect to any of the servers either via RWW or
RDP, but no clients.

Thanks again,
Susan

Was XP SP3 just applied to these workstations?

Rebooted the server this morning because I had a hung USB drive, and
since rebooting NONE of the client computers (all XP Pro SP3)will accept
a connection either externally via RWW or internally via Remote Desktop.
The servers are fine (SBS 2003 R2, Win2003 and Win2000). I haven't
changed anythign in group policies, DHCP, Wins, nothing. Can ping
clients, can manage remotely from My computer>>connect to another
computer, can see shares. Only RDP and RWW are broken.

Any ideas? Again, this is ALL clients, and a real problem as I have
several users who need RWW access.

Please help!

Susan
