Cannot RDP to cluter IP when there are 2 RDP-TCP configured tscc.m

Hi All

Just doing some testing on NLB, I have setup 2 windows 2003 Server (TestA)
and (TestB) Server. Each server has 2 NIC installed, each of these servers on
NIC (1) I have enabled NLB. The cluster IP is 10.10.1.55. DNS name is
nlbtest.test.com in the port rule we have allow port 80, 443 and 3389.

Each NIC has its own IP adddress. for TestA server NIC 1 IP address is
10.10.1.1 NIC 2 IP address is 10.10.1.2

TestB server NIC 1 Ip is 10.10.1.3 and NIC2 IP is 10.10.1.4

in TSCC.msc, we have created 2 connection . 1 is called admin the other one
is called user.

In User RDP-TCP connection > Network adapter tab > set to use NIC 1
In Admin RDP-TCP connection. > Network adapter > set to use NIC 2

in Admin RDP-TCP connection under permission I have remove Remote user group

No if I go back to my workstation, open RDP. then type nlbtest , I receive
the following error.
This computer can't connect to the remote computer. try connecting again. If
the problem continuesm contact the owner of the remote computer or you
network administrator.

If i remove 1 of the RDP-TCP connection under tscc.msc , in network adapter
, if I set to "all network adapters configured with this protocol". it works

I want to have 2 RDP-TCP connection enable is this possible

Thank you

 

Hello Mr555,

You can have only 2 concurrent connections on a TS in administration mode.
So if you create two connections and then use a third connection from the
client i t can not work. Or did i misunderstand your configuration?

Hi Meinolf

At the moment we have 1 terminal server. 50 users is connecting to that
server for their accountant work. we have 2 NIC installed to that terminal
server. NIC 1 is for users and NIC 2 is for Admin. that is specify in
tscc.msc RDP-TCP users connection. and ( i have configured 2 RDP-TCP
connection) let say I want to stop user connect to the terminal server, all I
have to do is disable NIC 1. it is working really well for us. The current
terminal server is running out of resource. Want I am trying to achieve is to
have 25 users connect to (Terminal Server 1) and the rest of the 25 users
connect to (Terminal Servr 2)

in my test Lab I enabled NLB on network card 1 to both of the terminal
server to share the work load.

I have created 2 RDP-TCP connection you (admin) and (user)

(Admin) configured to use network card 2 (user) configured to use network
card 1

so if I want to stop user connect to terminal servrr 1 all i have to do is
disable the NIC 1 on Terminal server1

Is this the correct way to set it up

Thank you
