SP2 upgrade killed terminal services...

[hinsonjr@gmail.com]

I have a new client running SBS 2003 on a Dell PE 1800. We updated the
server to SP2 this week and now the server will not accept RDP
connections. It is not longer listening to port 3389. Can someone help
me with this? RDP is critical to the operation.

netstat -a does not show anything listening on port 3389.
It was working fine prior to the SP2 install. Remote desktop does not
work locally either (inside the firewall) and the Windows firewall is
disabled.

Have you checked if Remote Desktop connections are still enabled?
Did you install SP2 from within a remote session? If so, try if a
second reboot helps.
