How to enable Terminal Services on 2008 Domain Controller?

Grrr.
So, I have a Win 2008 Standard Server, and I want to enable terminal services for some testing of a remote app. I have set it up as a domain controller.

If I remote desktop to the machine, It prompts me for my username/password. I put in the domain controller username and password, and it tells me that the credentials are no good. I know it is connecting ok, because I see the 2008 Logon Screen from my XP client.

I tried to run the remote desktop from the actual DC itself (to itself), but i have the same probelm.

What am I missing?  
Thanks!

Please check whether the credentials you are using to connect to have got either Remote Desktop User privileges or Administrator privileges.

Hi Matt,

It shows the local sever name, and I tried what you asked and still have the same issue.


What is the actual NetBIOS name of the domain?
