The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by nlockwood in Miscellaneous Networking, Windows 2003 Server
I have a server that is running Server 2003 Std SP2 with terminal services and it is not on a domain. I configured terminal services for application mode and it is licensed correctly. I created a local user and added them to remote desktop users account. When the user logs in to the terminal service via mstsc from a workstation it successfully logs in and then nothing else happens. No icons or desktop are shown. If the user is a member of the administrators group it works fine.
No errors in the event log or anything obvious. I've tried to use filemon and regmon to watch while the user logs in. Nothing obvious showing up either. I've also tried to promote the user to a power user and still get nothing.
I adjusted the settings inside of terminal services for active desktop on and off, multiple logins, etc. I've also tried rebooting the server, opening multiple connections fix (running 2 simultaneous connections to restore the icons). The sessions arent stuck and have been reset and lastly have created new user accounts to test with and all still no luck.
Any ideas?
