Terminal Services 2003 SPLA token question
by Guest Stewart- 0 replies
- 177 views
I have posted to the Terminal Services subgroup, but need to get an answer as soon as possible to my question. I have set up Terminal Servers before, activated the license server, and installed TS CALs, but this is a new one for me. I have need for a server to be setup for clients and I have signed an SPLA license agreement with Microsoft. I have installed Windows and am ready to configure Terminal Server, but need to make sure my tokens will never expire since I will be paying for them on a monthly basis through my SPLA licensing program. I've configured the Windows Server to be Per User, and will be setting licensing as Per User with the Terminal Server L…

Parental Conrtrols Service Doesn't Start
by Guest dl63- 0 replies
- 147 views
At some point the parental controls service stopped running at start up. When I start the service from the control panel manually, it still doesn't start. I start it from the account with adminstrator rights. Did one of the windows updates break this feature? I can't find any information on this problem anywhere. Does anyone have any clues where to start looking?

CPU usage monitoring
by Guest Paul- 0 replies
- 99 views
Do you know of a tool like QSlice that will display activity for each CPU or that you can choose which CPU it will display. I have a server with 16 CPUs and no services appear to be having an impact yet several times an hour at random one CPU (usually CPU 10, 11 or 12) will almost flatline for up to a minute which sets off our monitoring software.

Userid disassociated from docs etc
by Guest Ian D- 0 replies
- 77 views
My wife's userid has suddenly become disassociated from all her resources, e.g. My Documents, desktop, programmes, even access to AOL is playing up when she signs in with her AOL userid & password (yet it's fine when she signs in from my Windows user). It's as though a connection has been severed. Her My Documents now appears to be a Temp folder...all her original docs are still there, in a folder under her userid but she can't access them, but I can. There was no problem reported, no virus, nothing, nothing installed or uninstalled...one day it was fine, next day not. Anyone got any ideas about a) what has happened? b) how I can restore her userid? …

!HELP! Charter High Speed Dropping Connections
by Guest Simsy512@gmail.com- 0 replies
- 97 views
I recently had a tech come out and replace our modem because it was consistently dropping connections. Unfortunately, they brought the same type of modem, which is now also dropping connections. I went to Best Buy and bought a Motorola Surfboard for $80 and that also, is dropping connections. The technician replaced a switcher and the modem and it seems to drop more often when I am playing on XBOX Live on the 360. I have a Linksys WRT54G router ver. 8 attached to the modem, but I don't think that would cause an issue. Any help anyone might have would be greatly appreciated.

Terminal Server VPN Question
by Guest John W- 0 replies
- 149 views
We have some remote users that are using a remote dekstop connection to access our company network. On the TS there is a VPN connection to an off-site AS400. If you sit at the TS machine you can use the VPN fine but if you remote to the machine the VPN will not connect. Is this something that is not allowed or does anyone have a suggestion how to correct the problem? Thanks!
