Enabling remote desktop in a network

Hello guys,.

Im a network technician and I need to enable remote desktop in all client computers (350). Most of the computesr of network use XP pro 32 bit, some Win7 32 and 64. Is it possible with scripts or something that I can use with this purpose to automate the process? It is a tedious task...

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • Remote Desktop in the network does not work

    First time VPN newbie. I need to set up the vpn for a small company of friends using RV082 so, as a test, I put up here at home using a very basic configuration. The network topology looks like:

    Cloud-online cable modem => RV082-online-online PC win7 DIR655

    On a remote site, I launch QUICKVPN, enter the necessary data and connect. Setting up the Office remotely and put the IP address of my pc at home and the user name to logon and after a minute or two, he says "unable to connect to the computer" (or words to that effect). My home PC has been configured to allow remote desktop connections and this has happened in the past, but not since the installation of RV082. There is nothing in the logs of the PC, or in the newspapers of the RV082. What should be my line of inquiry?

  • How can I use remote desktop to control my PC at home from my Surface?

    I tried searching for an answer, but all the "tutorials" are non-specific in the one area that I do not understand.

    I want to do is be able to use my tablet of Microsoft Surface of anywhere I have internet and use it to control my PC in Windows 8. Which doesn't seem to be the object of the Remote Desktop application, correct? Now, I have enabled Remote Desktop connections in Control Panel and have the application installed on my surface and they both use the same Live ID, but the next step listed is just 'type the name or IP address of the computer"and none of these tutorials explain how to know exactly what one of these things is. I tried to get the name I gave the computer, which also appeared on the window that I learned to remote connection settings, but nothing happened, and to be honest I don't know why he would do. There are a large number of computers on the internet and I don't see anything that would prevent me to a share with a different device name. On the other hand, rather too many results the app can't find.

    I thought then that I would try an IP address, but for some reason whatismyip.com said he did not know. It's probably something on the router and maybe the reason why the previous attempt failed, but I don't have control of the router, so if that's the case then I need an alternative.

    I'll also accept other software that would make it easier, let's just connect from these two devices and selecting from a list, but I have to be able to be controlled from a device Windows RT (I don't need to go the other way, and I do not think that that is supported anyway). Feel free to just suggest something even if you don't know it will work around the problem, it is not necessarily reproducible on your system, so the only way to know is to try it.

    Have you seen this page?

  • Why is the port udp 137 used during a remote desktop session?

    I am currently seeing a lot of messages on my firewall indicating port 137 udp is blocked.  I think that when I use remote desktop to a remote system, which attempts to connect to me via the udp port 137 remote systems.  If this is true, why?  This is necessary or if I can change this behavior?

    Hello

    UDP 137 is used by NetBIOS in Windows 7 file sharing.

    According to what you are doing when you use Remote Desktop on your network, it can call the UDP137.

    If it does not interfere with something functional you need to do, leave him alone. The Job firewall is to block aspects of network traffic. You don't have to feel 'sorry' to him do his job.

  • Remote Desktop connection for XP Pro to a pc Windows 7

    I am trying to connect to a Windows 7 Pro pc using my Windows XP Pro computer.  I created the firewall for inbound and outbound rules to a specific port, set the port on the Terminal Server and upgraded the Remote Desktop Client in the XP box to 6.0.  However, I still can't connect to the Win7 pc unless I completely disable the firewall.  Could someone please give me a solution to this problem?

    Thank you

    Hello

    The firewall blocks the traffic, you probably does not correctly configured the ports and its opening.

  • what webcam for remote desktop?

    Hey, I was wondering if anyone out there knew a webcam that connects via USB and can be used via the remote desktop connection? I have one, but it does not appear as a usable device. Thank you! :-)

    Hey SpydeyNinja,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers Forum!

    1. you can use Microsoft VX-3000 webcam.

    2. However, you can use any webcam of your choice that is compatible with Windows Vista.

    3 take a look at the link that talks about the compatibility below Center. Access the below and go

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/default.aspx?type=hardware

    Note:
    When you use the Webcam with remote desktop, make sure that you enable remote desktop on both computers.
    You can use devices and resources located on or part of my computer like my printer, hard disk or Clipboard, while I'm connected to a remote computer. Check the settings of the device.

    4. in order to access the webcam on the remote computer user might have to use a third-party software.

  • Remote Desktop - Windows Vista-based computer to a Windows 7 computer on a local network in my office

    I have a laptop Windows Vista Home Premium that is trying to connect to my Windows 7 desktop. It worked fine when my desktop computer was Windows XP and I was running the same laptop Vista Windows 7, I am now.

    What has changed? I have a modem/router to two sons and has not changed the settings. I just tried opening port 3389 and cutting the firewall of Windows with the same results.

    I have a VPN and the game works fine.

    Get remote desktop dialog box for opening and saving in and I know that it is configured correctly, because when I take my Vista laptop to the office the RD connection works fine and I can see and I work on my Windows 7 desktop computer, so the problem is either something on my home network or with my ISP - using DSL - ideas?

  • Apple Remote Desktop (3.8.5) on several network interfaces

    Location:

    Running Office at distance between an iMac and a Mac mini, both running up-to-date El Capitan.  ARD version 3.8.5

    Both computers are on two networks, the WiFi network including the internet connection and is therefore "primary" and a wired machine-to-machine ethernet connection.  WiFi and ethernet are on separate subnets.

    In Didier, ARD 3.8.4, the Remote Desktop on the Mini app would announce (on Hello) as 'Active' wireless and wired interfaces, and from the iMac, I could choose who I want to use.  Usually the cables, connection gigabit ethernet to reduce network activity on WiFi.

    After these two machines 10.11.2 and ARD 3.8.5, update the Mini looks like 'Active' on the WiFi connection and 'offline' on the connection wired and is the remote desktop will not connect via the wire link. (no change with 10.11.3)

    I tried all combinations of options, I could think of to try to force the 3.8.5 on the Mini ARD announced as 'Active' on the wired connection.  Until beginning with no network connection, at all, on each machine, with all remote management and sharing turned off, re-boot both systems and leaving the disabled WiFi connection.  All to nothing does not.

    Paradoxically, file sharing works great!  It's just the Remote Desktop/screen sharing (Yes, I tried also, all possible combinations) will not announce or connect to the wired connection.

    When the two networks are active, sharing on the Mini preferences show the IP address for the primary network (WiFi) as well as the name (Nimitz.local) of the computer.  However, if the WiFi connection is not active there is no IP address displayed and the ".local" does not appear in the name of the computer.  It appears as just "Nimitz" not "Nimitz.local".

    I went through all the / library, folder ~ / Library, looking for whatever it is possibly connected to this issue.  I opened the files, checked the files, replaced the files and deleted the files without result.

    So my question is: how to do Remote Desktop or screen sharing to connect to the wired interface?  I'd rather not try and go back to Yosemite and ARD 3.8.4 if possible.

    Thank you for your patience!

    Kyle

    App for screen sharing, it must use the wired connection if you Set 1) Ethernet on your system of Viewer to be the first interface in system preferences-> network-> gear-> Service order icon set... and 2) to connect to the target by its IP Ethernet address. Remote Desktop is the MAC address of each computer and combines the addresses into a single entity. Most likely, the second computer that shows 'offline' is a file incomplete or dead. I would like to delete it. ARD promotes the address who has worked both previous. In theory, you can turn off WiFi and connect once via Ethernet and it will remain.
