Hi:
I have been doing really good. Got Terminal Server running, got my
single application starting on auto login... I was feeling really good.
Just the VPN left.

Then... Yea!!! Ok, when I log on to the Server, the machine it's self,
as Administrator, go to Programs, to Administrative Tools, then click on
"Terminal Services Manager", it used to open up a window where I could
monitor the connections, see who is log on and terminate users, etc. Now
when I click on 'Terminal Services Manager' it just puts a depressed icon
(the small bar with a title in it) on the taskbar, and no window open, nor
can I right click on it for a menu. It is titled: Untitled-Terminal Services
Ma.......

You have to go to Task Manager to close it. I want to be able to see who
is using the Terminal server, and need the window to display.

Help???

Ahhhh... yea.

I created another account, made that account an Admin. With that new admin
account I deleted the Administrator profile under My computer, right click,
properties, advanced, User Profiles. I really didn't have much entered in the
profile so... and it fixed the problem when I logged back on as Administrator.

I'm glad that you have solved the problem!
In case it happens again (which is bound to happen if you access TS
Manager in a remote session to your TS), you might want to read
this:

Terminal Services Administration tool starts minimized and can't be
maximized

Vera:
Wow!!! I was thinking there would be a registry hack to solve my issue,
but I wanted to keep moving on the project so I went at it with a machete.
Your site is and has been very helpful to my project!! Damm, when I started
the project I didn't even know what Terminal Server was. Now I have one
working with all kind of fancy tricks... it is really cool.

I have another question and will start a thread for tht.

Thanks again,
fox7
