Active directory users cannot logon to remote desktop when hamachi connection is down
Posted on 2013-01-07
We have 2 domain controllers (Server A and Server B) connected and replicating over a LogMeIn Hamachi VPN connection. Both servers are running Terminal Services. We want to turn Server A off and decommission it. When we turn server A off users cannot log in to remote desktop on server B. They get an error that no logon server are available. How do I force Server B to serve logins for remote desktop on Server B without Server A being available?

Firstly it is most definitely not recommended to run terminal services on a domain controller for security reasons.
"Installing a terminal server on an Active Directory domain controller is not recommended. Allowing users to run programs on a domain controller could create security risks and performance issues."

However, that was not the question. You will need to move all 5 FSMO roles from the server at site A to site B. Has this been done?
