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!

Access issues on TS Web Access

Asked by readydave in Remote Desktop/Terminal Services, Windows Server 2008, Microsoft Server

Tags: Domain Controller, remoteapp, Server 2008, Terminal Server, Terminal Services Gateway, Remote Access

Hello. I have migrated a client from a 2003 domain to a 2008 domain.

We have:

2 DCs
2 Term Servers
1 TS Gateway
1 TS Broker
Many thin clients and some PCs/laptops.
Some home/remote users

All of the servers are Windows Server 2008. Some are 32 bit, some are 64 bit.
The domain mode is 2008 Native. All of the above servers are brand-new, w/ clean installations of the 2008 OS.

The gateway and broker are the same server. The license server is the first TS.

I have successfully setup and configured the TS Gateway and have several users who can connect to the GW and launch the apps. However, I have a few random users who cannot launch any of the remoteapps.

They receive the following error: "Windows cannot start the remoteapp program. The following RemoteApp program is not in the list of authorized programs: Calculator. For assistance, contact your system administrator"

Also, I used Calculator as a test. It doesn't matter if it's an Office app, utility, or RDP link. They all get the same error. Once I click the okay button, the session seems to try to continue to connect anyway, and then I get the window that says the connection has been lost. Other times, I get a small window with the Server 2008 logon screen.

Some additional info: The site has a paid-for SSL certificate and is working properly (other users can connect just fine). One of the user accounts we have had trouble with is in the same group as the rest of the users, but is also an administrative user. We have tried from several different physical remote locations on several different comptuters. Some of the OSes we have tried this from are Windows XP Pro SP3 (RDP 6.1), XP Home Edition, and Linux (Fedora 10). The same user is able to log in to the term servers just fine. He is also able to log into the management server remotely as well.

All current patches and recommended updates have been installed. Access has been tried with both firewall on and off. It's odd how other users can connect without any issue at all, but not a few different accounts. One of the other accounts is a non-administrative account. If I log in as administrator, I can also access the apps.

Could anyone assist me in troubleshooting this issue? I would be very grateful.

Thank you,
Dave

Edit:
After reviewing some of the logs, it seems like this entry in the security log is generated when these failures are occuring:

An account failed to log on.

Subject:
 Security ID:  NULL SID
 Account Name:  -
 Account Domain:  -
 Logon ID:  0x0

This event is generated when a logon request fails. It is generated on the computer where access was attempted.

The Subject fields indicate the account on the local system which requested the logon. This is most commonly a service such as the Server service, or a local process such as Winlogon.exe or Services.exe.

The Logon Type field indicates the kind of logon that was requested. The most common types are 2 (interactive) and 3 (network).

The Process Information fields indicate which account and process on the system requested the logon.

The Network Information fields indicate where a remote logon request originated. Workstation name is not always available and may be left blank in some cases.

The authentication information fields provide detailed information about this specific logon request.
 - Transited services indicate which intermediate services have participated in this logon request.
 - Package name indicates which sub-protocol was used among the NTLM protocols.
 - Key length indicates the length of the generated session key. This will be 0 if no session key was requested.
