Re: Win98 computers cannot RDP to terminal servers

I assume that removing the 2nd DC didn't solve the problem?
Can you ping the TS from a W98 client? Connect to a shared folder
from them?
Can you connect if you use the server's IP number in stead of its
name?

The DC's run Windows Server 2003. The 2nd DC has since been
demoted, and removed, from the network.

There are no errors in the event logs of either the DC, or the
TS, that seem to pertain to the problem.

The Windows98 workstations themselves do not log on to the
domain, although we have tried joining them to the domain, and
still get the same results.

Which OS do you run on the DCs?
Any errors in the EventLog on the DCs or the Terminal Servers?

Installed a second domain controller to the domain. Next day
windows 98 PC's could not initiate RDP connections with any
terminal servers in our network.

Only error message is that " The connection timed out "

All other PC's can access the terminal servers only Win98
PC's seem to be affected.

Any suggestions?
