Re: 2003 TS Session not going to disconnected

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



When the network connection is lost, the session is actually
"broken".

Check your settings in
Terminal Services Configuration - RDP-TCP connection - properties -
Sessions
"When session limit is reached or connection is broken"

Have you configured the action there to "Disconnect from session", or
to "End session"?

We have 3 2003 Enterprise Edition SP2 Terminal Servers. We are
having a problem with when a user is working remotely and the
internet drops. When the users line drops the session should go
to disconnected right. Instead the session is completely logged
off the server.

I have a policy set for our terminal servers in AD to set keep
alives and auto reconnection and we have idle and disconnected
session limits of 3 hours but it logs the session off within 2
minutes after the users loses a network connection. 2 of these
servers are in a load balancing config with session directory
and are experiencing the same issue.

It works fine if the user disconnects the session by clicking on
x. So what gives? Any ideas why the session won't go to a
disconnected state is you drop the network connection?
