Kalint Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Server is Server 2012 Essentials, problem client is Windows 7 Ult. I'm having trouble with getting remote access working on this one computer. Here is what I've tried: Check RDP Users granted. Checked if IP was there, it has one Pinged it, it bounces back Checked if firewall is blocking, its not Checked if services are running, they are Re-installed the Server Connection Software Server Dashboard recognizes the client as a device. All the other clients in our office are working correctly. Is it ****ed and I have to reinstall windows or did I miss something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc302 Veteran Posted December 28, 2012 Veteran Share Posted December 28, 2012 you probably missed something. probably some security setting on that computer if everyone else can remote into the server....possibly the application blocked. Try completely disabling all firewalls as a test, then ramp up one at a time to verify which one is the culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aergan Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Set an advanced firewall rule up in group policy to allow RDP TCP-in Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Windows Firewall with Advanced Security > Windows Firewall with Advanced Security (etc.) > Inbound Rules > "New Rule" > Predefined > Remote Desktop Reconfigure the rule, select Advanced and un-tick Private and Public if ticked unless you have reason not to. To be safe, enable Remote Desktop in Group policy as well: Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Allow users to connect remotely using Terminal Services Should get you going along with a gpupdate /force on the client computer.
