W2K TS in Administration Mode

[Guest]

All:
I've installed/reinstalled TS for admin until I'm sick of it. I can't
connect to the server either with TS or RDC from W2KPro.
I don't see TS at all in Adminstrative Tools.
Suggestions?

And the installation of Terminal Services doesn't give any errors?
Is there anything in the EventLog?

No complaints form TS Insall, nor anything in the event log.

Since you write "TS for admin", I assume that the server is running
W2K?
Is the Terminal Services service installed at all? Which status
does it have? Is the server listening on port 3389? Check with
netstat -an

Correct; W2KSP4. Nothing listening on 3389. net start doesn't show terminal
services at all.

I'm sorry, DemoDog, I have not the faintest idea what is wrong.
Obviously, Terminal Services is not installed at all, but how that
can happen without a single warning or error during the
installation is beyond me.

The only thing that I can think of is that your W2K installation CD
is corrupt, or that the W2K installation on your server has become
damaged after installation.
If this was my server, I would first do a quick install from
scratch on another computer, just to see if I could replicate the
problem. Depending on the results, I would call Microsoft Support.
