    Term Serv - User rights

    Rajneesh I tried adding the user to the Distributed Com Users group. Still no luck. The only way for the account to work is when it is located in the Domain Administrator group, which obviously I cannot do.

    Term Serv - User rights

    Tried Regmon. To be honest I have no idea what I am looking for/at. When logged on as userx and the account is removed from DomAdmin, the application still fails. If I right-click and select "Run-As" and use my username/password (I am DomAdmin) it works perfectly. I have tried uninstalling the...

    Term Serv - User rights

    Andrew, There aren’t any special policies being applied to the Terminal Server. I have the computer located in the same OU as the workstations that the user is successfully able (RDP) to use the application without being a member of the Domain Admin group.

    Terminal Server - Install applications

    Thanks for all the advice. I will try to install as suggested by Zelandakh first as that seems the most straight-forward. I have purchased licenses for 30 remote users and will probably have about half of that actually using it. I see a tab in AD labeled "Terminal Services Profile". Should I...
