Recurring Remote Desktop
May 7, 2008
I recently got a Windows VPS to run a few applications 24/7. I generally login to the VPS during the day, via Remote Desktop, to review these applications..
However, I frequently have issues. Sometimes, I forget to log out and I will be terminated with a "the remote computer terminated the connection" and then I won't be able to re-login to the VPS. Sometimes I click the X on the Remote Desktop and then when I try to re-connect, I get the same error. Once I got the error "the remote connection has timed out. please try re-connecting to the remote computer again "
And the worse part is that the Remote Desktop can't be restarted alone.. my host has to restart my Windows every time - so my applications go down.
Is it me or is the VPS not supposed to act like this? Why is Remote Desktop so touchy?
I was told by the host that I should always use the Log Off.. however, if I do then Windows says that it will close all my applications.. I don't get any option to Log Off without closing the apps.. so I have to end up using the X.

I signed up for a windows VPS.
The directions I recieved were "Please use remote desktop to connect to your server."
So I entered the ip address into the remote desktop connection window and it doesn't connect. Where do I go from here? I searched and can't find any relevant info.

I signed up for a Win2k3 VPS account with 3dgwebhosting. I'm a newbie to Plesk and win2k3 so I spent the first day getting head around Plesk.
I then logged into Remote Desktop only to find someone else had beat me. They'd hacked in and downloaded a mass email client, email stripper and obviously sent out spam from a 2mb text file of email addresses.
I didn't spend long in Remote Desktop, but while there I switched on Windows Firewall, changed my admin login password and logged off.
Now, 24 hours later, I can't get back in. I get the error - This computer can't connect to the remote computer. Try again.....
I can still login through Plesk, FTP and ExpressionWeb.
Is FW keeping me out of RD or has the hacker returned?

I am currently accessing Serers through remote desktop (windows 2003). To be on the safe site, i like to allow only 1 IP to access through remote, even better would be through one specfic domain or subdomain.
I have already changed the port number, but still like to have this additional feature.

I know that Windows RDP Hosting is not a new Idea, but has anyone tried it with Ubuntu. I do have VNC Access to the server, but that only allows me to authenticate with a password, I need username and password.
What would be the best remote application for this?

I am hoping to find a dedicated server with the following specs or similar...
Processor: 3.00GHz or 1.8GHz Dual Core
RAM: 1-3GB
Hard Drive: 20-50GB (Yes, I realize most dedicated servers don't have drives this small.)
Windows preferable
Remote Desktop Access
30 GB Bandwidth
I plan to use this for running autoclickers and that sort of thing so that I don't need to worry about them on my PC. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know! I realize this is an odd request.

to install a server for data sharing. My user want a Windows server with remote desktop to write, edit and share document.
The server will host 5 users. one admin and 4 users. each user will have there own account and folder. The user will update word files and save it directly on the server. The admin will have access to each directory (like a fileserver).
I want your recommandation for the share, the OS and the upgradability

By default, it seems there are only 2 remote desktop connections allowed to a Windows server. If I need more, for example, up to 10 connections at the same time, how to do that?

I want to set up my desktop to be kind of a database. So I can access all my files on my home desktop, from school. (and be able to back up all my files on my reliable desktop as opposed to my not so reliable lappy)
Then the next thing I wanted to do is to be able to access my desktop using remote access. So I can control everything on my desktop, while I'm not there.
My laptop is running Vista Home Premium, I dont think that matters too much. But my desktop is running XP Home Edition.
I have a no-ip account. but I dont really know what my next step would be, I'm guessing to make a sort of FTP on my desktop? and I have NO clue how I'd do the remote desktop.

I ran Hijack this and fixed a few errors it listed in a Windows 2003 Server. I rebooted the server, but now when I attempt to login via remote desktop it logs in, but then immediately logs me out.
I am guessing HiJackThis deleted a required dll or .exe needed for Terminal Services. Do you guys have any idea how I can restore this, and undo what hijackthis did?

I know we can get remote Desktop connection only on those servers based on Windows 2003 OS or Windows 2008 OS.
But what about Linux? Can I have such remote desktop connection on CentOS 5?
Another question is, what is nxclient?

I am having a VPS and tried to use RDC from home and it i working. But from my office I couldn't since it looks like RDC is blocked when connecting to out of LAN.
I have tried with the support to change the ports couple of times but still didn't work.
I tried: GoToMyPC, IRemotePC etc. But I believe these 3rd part software doesn’t work in Windows 2003 Server.
how to overcome RDC problem or web service or web service that can work on Windows 2003 Server for RDC?

I have a server that I access through remote desktop. Suddenly I am getting the message "Remote Desktop Disconnected: The computer can't connect to the remote computer." when using Remote Desktop.
It was working a few minutes ago.
A while ago I suspected that someone knew the password for the box. I did change it at the time, and thought the issue was solved. Is it possible to turn off remote desktop remotely (whilst using remote desktop).
Power cycling the server isn't making any difference.
Any other options other than putting in a support request at the host?

I am trying to access my server remotely using Windows' Remote Desktop Connection. It functions perfectly, but it does not go full screen because my local screen res is 1680x1050 ...
Does anyone know any other remote desktop applications which work better in this way?
I know I could just change the local res settings but it is a bit of a nuisance and looks really weird if I set it to something non-wide-screen...

I have a remote XP PC: 172.16.1.5 OpenVPN connection with route added for 192.168.2.0/24 to go via the VPN
Now on the other end the network consists of:
I have a OpenVPN server inside the lan on 192.168.2.245
Its default gateway is 192.168.2.1
I have 3 Windows Servers, 192.168.2.246, 247 and 248. All gateways are set to 192.168.2.1.
I have a ethernet router on the network, 192.168.2.1, it has a route added for 192.168.0.0/16 to go via 192.168.2.245, and route added for 172.16.0.0/24 to go via 192.168.2.245 also). the 192.168.0.0/16 is incase any other LANs are connected at a later date, if computers saw any packets not on the the 192.168.2.x subnet they would be routed to the default gateway which would then pass them to the OpenVPN router.
The trouble is, i can remotely connect and ping to the OpenVPN router fine and also the ethernet router, however when i ping any of the Windows boxes it times out. But i can open up Remote Desktop and connect to the windows box without problem, infact if i am running 'ping 192.168.2.246 -t' it will suddenly come alive but only after the RDP connection is made.
Is this something funny with the routing? I want to keep the OpenVPN server internal to the network and i appreciate it is hitting the ethernet router then being passed to the OpenVPN but something is weird as it fires up RDP fine but not ping. No firewalls are enabled on any of the boxes. If i log into ssh on the OpenVPN router or ethernet router i can ping from that to the windows boxes fine.
Its as if a ICMP redirect is issued, and all is well after the 1st connection. Not too sure but could anyone be kind enough to enlighten me?

We have the Windows version of Plesk 11.5 installed. I've removed the "Management of access to the server over Remote Desktop" but two of my sites (there's only 4 so far) still have the remote desktop button available if you log into the user account and switch to those two domains. Switching to the other two doesn't display the icon. I'm not sure if there's another place where it gets turned on/off as I've tested creating a new subscription with the "Management of access to the server over Remote Desktop" ticked and it's not giving me the desktop icon there.

I keep getting this error once in a while for my forum.
Quote:
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]
User xxxxx_xxxx has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections [1203]
An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.
I've contact support team from my Hosting provider and they have help me to increase the value of max_user_connection to 50. I have made to understand by them that this problem can be resolved by using VPS or Dedicated server. As a newbie, I just want some assurance would the problem permanently resolve if I'm using VPS or Dedicated server? Which one should I use? VPS or dedicated server?

I'm having a recurring issue where someone is getting a script into /tmp, taking down the webserver and setting up their stupid IRC bot on port 80. It's annoying because thus far I have not been able to track them down. As soon as it happens I'm combing through the logs trying to find out what PHP script (probably PHPBB or something like it from one of my customers) is letting them through but there is nothing in the logs. I've had this happen before but usually there's some trace in the logs like some ASCII encoded string. Right now I just have little to nothing to go on and it's quite annoying. I've combed all over the net but found next to nothing. RKHunter doesn't even know it exists.

I've been plagued by CBL listing for quite some time now, on a linux server with Plesk 12.After months of a fierce fight against every possible malware on the about 120 various websites on this server, extensively monitoring clients emails, enabling restrictive policies and finally even hiring a private security firm to investigate the problems further, we were sure that not a single spam message was sent by our server in any way.
So we finally contacted CBL, exposed the issue and got this answer:The CBL attempts to detect compromised machines in a number of ways based upon the email that the CBL's mail servers receive.During this it tries distinguish whether the connections represent real mail servers by ensuring that each connection is claiming a plausible machine name for itself (via SMTP HELO), and not listing any IP that corresponds to a real mail server (or several mail servers if the IP address is a NAT firewall with multiple mail servers behind it). 54.194.XX.XXX was found to be using several different EHLO/HELO names during multiple connections on or about:
2015:01:09 ~16:30 UTC+/- 15 minutes (approximately 3 days, 21 hours, 14 minutes ago).
The names seen included: xxx1.xx, xxx2.xx, xxx3.xx, xxx4.xx, xx.xxx5.xx, veniceberg.com..Note that the above list may include one or more names that are not fully qualified DNS names (FQDNs). Host names (ie: Windows node names) without a dot are not FQDNs.
The final possibility is that 54.194.XX.XXX is not a NAT firewall, and is instead a single box with many domains provisioned on it, some that send email directly, setting the HELO as the sending domain. If this is the case, to prevent a relisting we strongly recommend setting the mail software on the box so that a single identifying name is used in outbound SMTP connections mail software on the box so that a single identifying name is used in outbound SMTP connections. As an alternate workaround, you can configure the mail software to relay its outbound email through an intermediate mail server. Even a co-resident mail server package (such as IIS on Windows) will do fine.​
This pointed me to this Plesk Mail setting (not sure if this selection is the default). Now we are waiting a few days to see if changing to "Send from domain IP addresses" solves the issue. I think this is a kind of issue which deserves attention by Parallels to avoid other users go trough our fatiguing ordeals. If this setting is responsible for getting servers blacklisted, it should be highly discouraged.
