RDP Issues

Has anyone seen issues with RDP ceasing to function and requiring a reboot in order to correct? The RDP listener did not appear to have any issues.

Occassionally I see an issue with RDP on the x64 machines. Go into the remote tab of system properties and check to make sure those who need access have permission. Sometimes I have had to uncheck and recheck the box for "Enable Remote Desktop on this computers" Also, make sure the Windows firewall is disabled. That has given me grief in the past with RDP. What I would like to know is why RDP sessions do not show up as console sessions even when logging on with the console switch. I am only getting console sessions when logged in on console session in VIC.

Is it happening to more than one VM? if not, it could be a corrupted RDP certificate.

Let me know..

No. It is not a certificate problem.
