Make sure you have the permissions set to allow the remote user to connect.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your advice.

 

I found the solution. It needs taking 2 steps on Window Server 2008 R2

 

1)

to enable user using Remote Desktop

Start -> right click "Remote Desktop Connection" -> Properties -> Security -> Edit -> high light "userA"

under "Permission for "userA

(check) Full control

-> OK - OK

 

2)

Start -> right click "computer" -> properties -> Change settings -> Remote -> Select Users -> Add -> Advanced -> Find Now -> select "userA (computer name)" -> OK

displaying : computer name\userA

-> OK -> OK -> OK

 

Step 2) is important. Before posting I only completed step 1) leaving out step 2). Therefore it won't work.
