Plug and Play Redirection issue

[linder.be@googlemail.com]

Hello,

I set up a Windows Longhorn Server 2008 with Terminal Services for
testing the Plug and Play redirection. I have tested it with Windows
Mobile Devices, Microsoft Webcam, Logitech Webcam but it won't detect
or install any driver. The redirection of drives works perfectly. No
problems there. Anybody got this to work?

I'm using Terminal Services in Windows Server 2008 Beta 3 and Windows
Vista Ultimate Client.


Greetings

If I remember right, you need special new drivers using a new type of
driver redirection for these things to work.

I read about modifying the device driver's INF file. I followed the
guide at http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/driver/install/ts_redirect.mspx
but it didn't work.
What about digital cameras, got one. But still no Inbox support. :
( Any more ideas?

Re: Plug and Play Redirection issue

1) Device redirection is not turned on by default. Can you see the devices
being selected in client UI->Options->Local resources->More->Supported Plug
and Play devices?

2) If you do have them selected in step 1, then my guess is probably you
don't have DesktopExperience package installed on the server

Thanks
