I need to run a vbs script on a remote machine from WMI in a vb.net web service. The path of the vbs file on the remote machine is called
C:\ShippingSystem\Wave\wave.vbs

What I have so far.... (Remote Machine, Path on the remote machine, username, password)

Sub RunIt()
CreateProcess("REMOTEMACHINE", "C:\ShippingSystem\Wave\Wave.vbs", "DOMAIN\USERNAME", "password")
End Sub

Private Sub CreateProcess(ByVal strComputer As String, ByVal strProcess As String, ByVal UserName As String, ByVal Password As String)
 

Dim processBatch As ManagementClass = New ManagementClass("Win32_Process")
        Dim inParams As ManagementBaseObject = processBatch.GetMethodParameters("Create")
        Dim msc As ManagementScope

        inParams("CurrentDirectory") = Nothing
        inParams("CommandLine") = strProcess
        Dim co As ConnectionOptions = New ConnectionOptions()
        co.Username = UserName
        co.Password = Password

        Try
            If (strComputer = System.Environment.MachineName) Then
                msc = New System.Management.ManagementScope("\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
            Else
                msc = New System.Management.ManagementScope("\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2", co)
                'msc = New System.Management.ManagementScope("\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2", co)
            End If

            msc.Connect()

            Debug.WriteLine(msc.Path)
            processBatch.Scope = msc

Select all Open in new window

'WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE

Hello

Has anyone had any experience with rolling out the HP Device Manager agents to any thin clients that do not have it installed?

We are looking at Migrating from 2008R2 to 2012R2 Remote Desktop server and profiles. My concern is that we are a very high productivity environment and need as little down time as possible.
Our setup is two physical servers. Both are HP ProLiant ML350p Gen8 Dual 6 core Xeon E5-2620. One server is our DC and is running Windows 2012R2. The other is a Remote Desktop server running 2008R2. Because of the memory limitations of Win2008, we would like to upgrade to 2012R2 (or 2016) so we can maximize the hardware we already have. We only have 14 Remote Desktop users so I think we can stay with the existing hardware and boost the RAM and get a significant performance gain.

My big question is how seamless is the migration process for the user profiles to move from 2008 to 2012?

Deploying new 2016 RDS farm

The following are in place

• 1 Connection broker
• 1 RDHS
• We are not pushing remote apps or allowing outside RDS connections directly to the FARM. So RD Gateway and Web Access is not configured. RDS will be used internally only for now
• Domain\users are added to the RDHS and Connection Broker's remote desktop group
• A DNS record of remote.internal.company with the IP address of the connection broker

When i tested with a standard user account, using the address remote.internal.company, I log directly into the connection broker. I do not get directed to the RDHS. I'm not sure why it's not redirecting me

Am I supposed to have the DNS record point to the RDHS? I'm not sure what I am doing wrong

I’m using rdp for a Windows 2008 r2 and left mouse click is not working in some areas of some apps in Windows 2008 R2. It was working fine a week ago and suddenly stopped work. For example firefox all left mouse is working except when the pop up of download a file is triggered and you need to left click ok to download that left click not work you need to hit enter key to be accepted, or if you want to see the list of files are downloading you click on the place to go there and not work. In other applications that requires login the same when you enter user name and password and you need to click the button login not work left mouse click in that login button, the same you need to press the key enter to be able to work.

Is strange because when you click in a place that you can’t left click the click action of the button appears like triggered, in other words, you see how the button is clicked because change of color but never triggers the action.

What could be the problem?

Hello we have a Windows Server 2008 R2 and we use RDP to manage because the server is not in our location is a host rented. Now if login via RDP from just a PC computer works perfectly. However if we try to enter in an iOs application remotix not work say user name and password incorrect. We have on iOs other application called jump and works if we disable nla. The point is we want to use other applications and we can’t use because say user name and password incorrect and the user name and password is fine. In couldn’t the same application of microsoft rdp of iOs one time worked around 4 months ago nw the same is not working. What could be the problem?


Thank yu

Hi, This site has helped me out a few times in the past, so thought id post here!

So, I need to deploy an RDP file to 12 different computers via a GPO.
The credentials need to be dependant on the computer the RDP file is deployed to and the credentials need to be saved in the file.
It has to be like this due to the way that our business and licencing of this software in particular works.

There is also a logoff script that deletes said RDP file. Why? This is a shift based call centre, the user logs on to whichever computer is available, and their desktop follows them.
If the user logs on to another computer and the RDP file which was generated from a different computer is still there, they will open it and kick the user out of another session. It becomes messy very quickly.

I already have this working via a GPO and a logon script, however it can take forever to run!
A user could be sitting there for sometimes up to 30 minutes before the RDP file will appear and they can start working.

We also have a remote site that is part of the same domain, just extended across a VPN tunnel. The computers at the remote site seem to take much longer to run the script than the ones on the LAN, even though there is a secondary domain controller running at the remote site processing the same logon script and the RDP file itself is only Kb's.

This is what i have in the Logon Script currently (minus sensitive info):

<code>
@echo on

Set res=0

Hi Experts

What is the Best Practice re IIS & RDS services?

We have 2 VMs on a HyperV: DC + RDS (both WIndows 2016)
Our CRM, ACT! from Sage,  is currently installed on the RDS but is only used internally.
We need to install a IIS / Web Server to give remote access to ACT! via the web

Can I use the RDS to install these additional components? My instinct is to build a new VM and install ACT! on that VM.

What says you?

I’m trying to setup OneDrive for Business to auto login when a new user logs into their computer.  The computers have Office 2016 Pro Plus installed already.  Office 365 already has the license assigned to them too.  I don’t want them to have to login, and then ‘set a path’ for a library to sync.

we have inherited a setup with a terminal server and a gateway, where the certificate is expired. We've deleted the old certificate and configured the new one.
But still - the old one is presented.
but why??

We can see that the server is installed with Win2012R2 but it seems that the old terminal services gateway is configured, not the RDS gateway in Win2012.
anyone?

Hi Guys,

I've setup a VPN connection on a server (Windows Server 2012), but I am unable to establish a connection from external.
Connecting internally to the local IP of the server works just fine ;-)

The error I am receiving is:

"The remote connection was denied, because the username and password combination you provided is not recognised, or the select authentication protocol is not permitted on the remote access server"

When I try to Telnet into the server, I get an initial black green, then the connection has timed-out message

Could this error relate to our router not allowing connections through from the internet, or is this error specific to username / password and authentication issues?

Trying to connect externally, I am using Windows 10, but also tried from another external server with Windows 2016 Standard edition.

EE,

I am replacing one of our Windows XP PCs with  Windows 7 - No issue there.  

One of the functions of this PC is to allow one of our users to remote into it, via Windows RDP, and run ONLY ONE application, collect their data, and exit.
> The user will be using the provided RDP license that comes with each Windows installation, meaning that there is no Terminal Services Server in place.

I attempted a few solutions that I found on the Web, but ended up "locking up" the Windows XP OS so that NO ONE could login - Pretty neet trick if anyone is interested - BTW, is the reason that we moved to another PC  :(
> So, being a bit more cautious, I am asking assistance from EE, as time is an issue.

This PC has normal functions in the office, and this one user has a need to remote in via RDP, but in a secured manner - Thus the running of the only one application.
> I attempted creating registry hack that pointed to the application as a new shell, but this "almost worked", it would not log off, thus when the user attempted to remote in again, she could not - I had to manually log in and end the session.
> I attempted changing the Group Property and ended up 'brain deading/killing' the PC.

I know there **must** be an easier way to do this.... Any ideas?
