Hello All,

We would like to log all terminal services connections made to one of
our Windows Server 2003 systems. We are running the Terminal Services
Directory Logging service and have made the registry change specified
in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base Article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/327508.
In addition, in Terminal Services Configuration Manager, we have
enabled auditing logon, logoff, connect, disconnect, etc. for the
everyone group on the server. I do not see any entries in the event
logs or the Terminal Services log file for this information.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
 
Re: Log Terminal Services Connections in Windows Server 2003

So you have a TS farm and a Session Directory server, is that
correct? The session directory records are written to
\system32\Tssdis.log

Have you enabled auditing of security events in the security policy
for the server? In TS Configuration, you select which categories of
events to audit, but you must enable auditing in the GPO as well.
