Windows Server 2012 R2 - With single-server remote desktop
Just recently got a new PowerEdge T430 and as he came MS Server R2 2012. This server will belong to a workgroup with users accessing remotely.
My question for the moment is this message: you are currently logged on as a local administrator on the computer you must be logged in as a domain user to manage servers and collections.
Am I missing some setting? Or is this a limitation of 2012? Decommissioning of 2008 will solve my problem?
Of course, you can promote to DC. It can execute a standalone domain with no machines. It simplifies everything EVERYTHING, including "just" files exchange/keep, use it as a "Workstation" is not simplify anything. You can uninstall RDS and JUST use RDP to connect to the machine using local users, but if you want to use the RDS feature, you will need a domain environment.

I installed Windows Server 2008 R2. During the 1st 120 days, remote desktop worked for multiple users. Now that the 120 days are up, it is necessary to purchase client access licenses. However, is it possible to activate the remote desktop for one user without having to purchase client access licenses? If so, I would like to ask for details. I've been everywhere in the server options and can't seem to find the right combination. Thank you!

Windows 2003: Explorer does not properly without remote desktop
The following image shows the screenshot of Windows Server 2003, when connected using Remote Desktop connection, using the administrator account.
If I connect without Remote Desktop, means going directly in my server room, and then log on by using the same administrator account, as you can see in the following screenshot, no office, no taskbar. But, I can press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to run the Task Manager.
I have to wait very long for the office and the toolbar displayed. The problem occurs only when not using remote desktop to open a session.
How to solve this problem, without having to reinstall Windows?

Is it possible that I can add another question in the Windows log on screen?
Currently, there are user name and password.
Can I add a field more where can I ask one other piece of information? Something like a group security code or another type of challenge?

Sorry, you can not. The logon process is deliberately fixed in order to make life more difficult for would-be hackers.

Remote access Windows Server 2012 through internet with desktop connection
Summer messing about with it for days and don't get no love.
Try to connect with Windows 7 Ultimate edition to Windows Server 2012 Data Center version from outside my home network, Starbucks or McDonald's or my server at home.
Tried all these steps found in this promising and useful article:
- Allow connections to the computer you want to access remotely. DONE - ADDED to THE SERVER AND NON-ADMIN ACCOUNT to RDP GROUP of ROLES, using network level authentication. Connection of Win 7, so this method of authentication should not be a problem, I assume.
Make sure that remote desktop is able to communicate through your firewall. DONE - FOR BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE RULE.
Find the IP address of the computer on your home network you want to connect. MADE - by using the ipconfig/all command
Open your router configuration screen and worms forward port 3389 for TCP IP address of the destination computer. DONE - NOT TCP/UDP but TCP only, internal and external port goes. Note: The use of a booster signal wifi at the end of the House, it is a problem that requires additional configuration? I don't think he has an ip address or acts as a router. But in desperation I can try unplugging then again head the local Starbucks to try to connect.
Find the IP address of the router so that the remote desktop can be found on the Internet. DONE - using "what is my ip", pretty easy.
Open Remote Desktop connection, and connect. ACTUALLY, I think THAT, IN ENTERING [ip router]: 3389.
But the result of the message is always the typical:
(1) remote access to the server is not enabled.
> But this is not true, that I am capable of the DRC at home on the server machine.
(2) computer remote is not off.
> But this is not true, as I just left home 30 minutes and sometimes it's rarely, only restarted.
(3) the remote computer is not available on the network.
> Don't know what that means. Of course the remote computer is not on the network, I am on right now. It's on my home network. But I can ping my router ip via cmd, then coming to the outside can be done; through my router, I should be able to access inside my home network port forwarding w. But no love.
So... what to do, what to do...
The wifi booster is a problem?
Connects to the Data Center edition a problem?
What happens if I uncheck the option ' use authentication NLA, is that the passage of the security risk?
Any ideas about the configuration I could be missing before giving up and go for VPN or TeamViewer. I would really like to see materialized during all the time that I put in trying to run the DRC.
Thanks for any input.

Remote Desktop is very slow on one another and fast on a single computer
While I'm at work, I use remote desktop to connect to my home computer. I did this for a long time without any problem.I just finished building my new computer yesterday and install a new copy of Windows 7 Pro x 64. When I went to connect to my new computer today via desktop remotely, it is really slow and jerky. I thought maybe it was just my connection but I tried to connect to an older computer which is also on my network home and it was really smooth and fast. So I have 2 computers on the same network, and they have significantly different results when you connect via RDP. The old computer is significantly less powerful than my new.Is there something I need to do on my new computer (the server) to speed things up? Maybe tweaks, I have neglected or forgotten to start because it is a new installation of windows?All of the involved computers, Client and server (s) running Windows 7 Pro x 64 and my remote desktop settings are the following:Display:16-bit colorLocal resources:Remote - audio does not playKeyboard - computerLocal devices - printers [x] Clipboard]Experiencecomposition of the Bureaupersistent bitmap cache implementation(all other options unchecked)Thank you in advance for your help!I got it to work.
I went through internet and found a registry tweak which fixed my problem 100%I navigated to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parametersand a new value called DisableTaskOffload DWORD value, and then set its value 1.
Please look in my problem though! -
Connection problems with remote desktop connection
Good somehow I try to connect to my remote friends computer and it has a windows 7 and I already configured on his computer. I already forwarded Ports on his computer, his static IP, added exception to the firewall, including Norton Internet Security Firewall 2013, so his remote desktop connection is good. But my computer is a Windows Vista Home Premium, but somehow, it wont let me connect it keeps telling in a dialog box with this error:
Say this 'Remote Desktop disconnected"
"Try to connect again. If the problem persists, contact your network administrator or the owner of the remote computer.But it's is not my friends computer problem, its my computer, I would have never been able to use Remote Desktop on my computer, I have no idea why. I also configured with my router Embarq EQ 660 - R in the NAT rule SUA Port 3389 with my routers IP. But somewhere in my firewall, it doesn't let me use the same TCP 3389 port, it won't let me enter any number of his strange. Well, I have the screen shot a photo so I'll attach the image so you can see what I mean. But I already have my friends computer sent a static router IP configured on him and on his router port everything worked fine, but the problem is mine, don't let me not the port before my router only if I use the NAT option and entering into the rule of SUA, in which I made with port 3389 , and my default gateway static IP. I also added an exception to my Windows Firewall and also my Norton Internet Security firewall, 2013 including the application, but still somehow, it does not work. On my router, if I try to put the port range: 3389 to 3389. Added the name of Service like RDP, Type of Service: TCP. Also, I made my public computer static IP a little go. A how's my friends computer it works

You can not use Remote Desktop connection to connect to computers running Windows Vista Starter, Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista Home Basic N or Windows Vista Edition Home Premium. You can, however, connect to these editions of Windows Vista on computers running other versions of Windows.
As a result, remote desktop is not available on these versions of Windows. You can see the bottom of the article for more information on this:

Remote Desktop screen resolution
I've recently upgraded to a Windows 7 laptop from a computer in Office XP.
On my old machine, I use a VPN clent and Remote Desktop connection to use my work computer (my company uses XP on their machines). If I try to connect from my computer Windows 7, fonts and icons of the remote desktop window are so small they can barely read. Change display options in the settings of remote desktop doesn't affect the size of the window, not the resolution.
It is a problem because I am stuck using my old system to work remotely.
Any ideas?
All you have to do is to reduce the resolution of the screen that you use to connect to your Remote Desktop Session. More the higher resolution and the characters will be on your screen, and when you connect to Remote Desktop. In my case, I lowered the resolution of my screen to the House for the resolution of the screen in my office. It works perfectly. To reduce the resolution follow these steps:
1. click on start
2. click on Control Panel
3. under appearance & personalization - click on adjust screen resolution. You may get a message indicating that your resolution is not at the optimum, but don't worry you will still be able to see the letters on your screen.
