Re: Reinstalling Terminal Server (ADMIN MODE) Windows 2003

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

This Server is running Windows 2003 Server with SP1 with all critical
updates. The firewall is not enabled (first thing I checked). When I run
firewall.cpl, it asks if I want to enable it.

The message I get from the client end is just the regular can't connect
message:

Remote Desktop Disconnected
The client could not connect to the remote computer
Remote connections might not be enabled or the computer might be too busy to
accept new connections.
It is possible that network problems are preventing your connection.
Please try connection again later. If the problem continues to occure,
contact your administrator.


I had tried installing "terminal Services" - multiuser at one point and I
think that is when I saw these error messages in the Event Log:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: TermService
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1036
Date: 8/22/2006
Time: 12:43:16 PM
User: N/A
Computer: SERVER2
Description:
Terminal Server session creation failed. The relevant status code was
0xC0000034.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at

I have since uninstalled "Terminal Services" and just have remote desktop
enabled for administration.

Hi,

What is the error message you get when the client tries to connect ?
Do you have firewall configured on the machine ? Is 3389 port opened on
the firewall ?

You can use "firewall.cpl" on Start->Run to check the firewall settings.

Thanks,
Priya.

I have a fresh version of Windows 2003 installed and I am trying to get
Terminal Services (Remote Administration) to work. In Windows 2003 this
is installed by default so all that needs to be done is enable it under
the remote tab under System. I do a netstat -a -o and I don't see a
listening port on 3389.

I have been fighting with gettting this to work all morning. What could
the problem be?
Can I just someone reinstall this so it works?

Kevin
