Disconnecting Remote Deasktop Connections.

[Chaplain Doug]

Windows 2000 Server. I connected to my server using a
remote desktop connection. The connection was lost (due
to a network disconnect), but is apparently still logged
onto the server. When I try to logon the server it tells
me that the terminal server has exceeded the maximum
number of allowed connections.

1. How many connections are allowed in Windows 2000
Server? How may I increase the number?
2. How may I display the remote connection active on my
server?
3. How may I disconnect (or close) a connection from the
server? Or, how may I resume the broken connection?

Thanks for the help.

use "terminal services" under admin tools to administer your remote
connections, add callers and manage sessions.

If you are using TS in Remote Administration mode you are allowed only two
connections which can not be changed. You can configure RDP properties in
Terminal Services Configuration to end a sessions that has been idle after a
certain number of minutes. If you can not connect to it again you might try
to use Computer Management to connect to that server and restart the
Terminal Server service assuming you have file and print sharing
connectivity to it. --- Steve

Copy. Use Terminal Services Manager on server. Wilco.

Terminal Services Manager allowed me to disconnect and
logoff the remote sessions. Problem solved. Thanks. Out.
