unable to access retrospect 7.5 multi sever from terminal server session


Recommended Posts

I just did a test with my Windows 2003 64 bit system. I used Remote Desktop connection to login to my backup server from Windows XP.

 

Retrospect was running in the active session on my 64 bit 2003 Service Pack 2 Server. I then logged into the box via RDC from my XP computer. I could not see Retrospect. I launched the activity monitor and everything was Green and working as expected.

 

My Retrospect Security settings are as follows:

Always Run Retrospect As a specific user.

Username: Administrator

Log on to: My Local Computer Name (I am not on a domain).

 

I do have "Run Retrospect in the terminal services session" checked.

a few comments:

 

1. i'm using vista 32 as source not xp.

2. RS is running under username drick on the physical machine

3. i am trying to RDP into the machine using the same username

4. my RS security settings are the same as yours, and i have the TS option checked. i'm also not in a domain

 

i just tried to RDP into the machine using the admin account to see if that might work, it didn't either.

Hi Mris-

 

I am having the same problem but your suggestion helped.

 

Actually in my version of mstsc the switch /admin worked.

 

Try:

mstsc /admin /v:banana

 

I got into the console and could see Retrospect.

 

I also had the same weird errors. I use enhanced IE security and noticed a pop-up when I first tried to use the activity monitor.
