Check under My Computer - properties - Remote and see if Remote Desktop is ticked.<br />

Hi <br />
<br />
I have a windows 2003 server box in &quot;remote desktop for administration&quot; mode. It has worked fine until very recently where now if I connect to the box via remote desktop, I am asked for my username and password, which I enter, but when I click OK it gets as far as &quot;applying settings&quot;, then it says &quot;saving settings&quot;, then &quot;logging off&quot;, and then the RDP connection is dropped. This is the same for all users including the administrator. Nothing is logged in the event log.<br />
<br />
Any ideas?<br />

Hi 

I have a windows 2003 server box in "remote desktop for administration" mode.

Terminal Services logon problem

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
