The "fix" that the tech guys supply is simply logging into the console on their end, after which point I can connnect 2 or 3 times again.

I've tried connecting from two different computers (both running Windows 7) from two different networks (work and home), and the behavior is the same.Įverything else on the server continues to run fine (IIS-served http pages, Tomcat-served java pages, svn, ping). I've tried both soft and hard reboots, neither of which help. I tried creating a second user, and when I can't connect, I can't connect to that user either. The remote setting is "Allow connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop". The firewall has been correctly configured to let RDP traffic through. Then goes back to connecting once and immediately disconnecting.Īll of the updates are installed. Remote Desktop can't connect to the computer for one of these reasons: 1) Remote access on the server is not enabled 2) The remote computer is turned off 3) The remote computer is not available on the network After that, for about 10-20 minutes if I try to connect again, the connections times out with When the problem connecting starts, the first time I try to log in, the remote desktop window pops up, starts connecting, and then exits with "Your Remote Desktop session has ended". When I connect, I can stay connected for hours with no problem.

I can connect about two or three times, after which point I can't connect until one of the tech guys "fixes" it (see below). I don't have much experience with server admin (I'm a programmer), and what little I do have is with linux servers.Įver since getting the server I've been having issues with RDP. Background: I recently got a Windows cloud VPS server.
