Windows Server Forum / Windows 2000 / Terminal Services / March 2006Cannot connect to Windows 2000 Server in remote administration mod
Hi I am using windows 2000 server sp4 with iis 5.0 and terminal services setup in remote administrative mode. I am trying to connect to the 2000 server via XP pro sp2 client utilizing remote desktops. Both machines are on the same subnet. When attempting to connect the screen says "connecting to server <servername>" then it displays "disconnecting from server" Anything in the EventLog on the server or the client? Can you telnet to port 3389? Can you connect with a remote session to the server from the console of the server itself? I understand that you are using the Remote Desktops utility from the 2003 AdminPak. Can you connect with the standard rdp client (mstsc)? Can you connect from another client? 186645 - Troubleshooting RDP Client Connection Problems http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=186645 187628 - Using Telnet to Test Port 3389 Functionality http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=187628 _________________________________________________________ Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server TS troubleshooting: http://ts.veranoest.net SQL troubleshooting: http://sql.veranoest.net ___ please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email ___ =?Utf-8?B?Z3I4ZmFpdGg=?= <gr8faith@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote on 22 mar 2006 in microsoft.public.win2000.termserv.apps: > Hi > I am using windows 2000 server sp4 with iis 5.0 and terminal [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > When attempting to connect the screen says "connecting to server > <servername>" then it displays "disconnecting from server" Nothing in event log for either the XP client or the 2000 server. I could not telnet to port 3389. Utilizing the Terminal services manager on the serverin the left pane I see the domain in green and the terminal server encircled in red with a line through it. The right pane says "you could not be authenticated on this server" -I am logged in as the domain administrator the domain administrators global group is a member of the local administrators group. After reading through the links provided (Thanks!) I discovered that Terminal services configuration has no connection defined, therfore It cannot be configured. When trying to add a new connection there is no connection type to choose from in the drop down box. is RDP the connection type? What should I be seeing here. Peace. -JB > Anything in the EventLog on the server or the client? > Can you telnet to port 3389?

Seems like your installation of TS is corrupt / incomplete. I would however expect an Event, stating that the TS service could not start, or something similar. Has it ever worked correctly before? If so, what happened / was changed on the server just before it stopped working? Since you are only using TS in Remote Admin mode, I would uninstall TS completely, reboot and then install again. _________________________________________________________ Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server TS troubleshooting: http://ts.veranoest.net SQL troubleshooting: http://sql.veranoest.net ___ please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email ___ =?Utf-8?B?Z3I4ZmFpdGg=?= <gr8faith@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote on 24 mar 2006 in microsoft.public.win2000.termserv.apps: > Nothing in event log for either the XP client or the 2000 > server.
