Hi this is my first post in this great forum

...more over i was using my server remote but now days i am getting this message.

What has changed on this server between the time that you could access it remotely and now?

Is Terminal Services installed on the server? If not, then you can only have two concurrent users connected remotely and they must be in the administrator's group.

Are you a member of the Remote Desktop user group?

Does the Remote Desktop user group have the appropriate permissions?

Hope this helps.

To remotely access the server you must be an administrator or a remote desktop user.

Any other domain admin can also login remotely.

You can try connecting via a domain computer and see if it connects.

Your can also install Remote Desktop Web connection for use.

You still haven't answered this question: What has changed on this server between the time that you could access it remotely and now?

Have there been any updates, new or updated software (particularly, but not limited to anti-virus or anti-spyware), firewall changes, or group policy changes.

Hope this helps.
