Re: Terminal Services not working - Port 3389 not listening

[nickbsd]

mgorman@elitefoodco.com@ THANK YOU SO MUCH for your resolution.

I did a P2V in VMWARE on a Windows 2000 server which went fine.
Performed anther P2V and it booted into the OS fine but I couldn't RDP
TO it and couldn't figure out why.

After performing two additional P2V's and adding/removing the terminal
services via add/remove programs I could not figure it out. Thank
goodness scouring the net paid off after finding your post.

Thanks for the hardwork and the effort to post the resolution online
for the rest of us.

Nickbsd,

Re: Terminal Services not working - Port 3389 not listening

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Found the solution to my particular problem. Article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/270588/en-us

CAUSE
This problem can occur if the server has been booted by using the Last
Known Good Configuration option more than once. When the server has
been booted into the last known good configuration more than once, the
ControlSet001 registry key is deleted. However, the following registry
value is hard-coded to use the ControlSet001 registry key:
Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Terminal
Server\VIDEO\rdpdd\

Value name: \Device\Video0
Value type: REG_SZ
Value data:
\REGISTRY\Machine\System\ControlSet001\Services\RD PDD\Device0
Back to the top

RESOLUTION
WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious
problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system.
Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from
using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own
risk.

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows
2000. For additional information, click the following article number to
view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
260910 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/260910/EN-US/) How to Obtain
the Latest Windows 2000 Service Pack
To resolve this problem: 1. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
2. Locate and click the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Terminal
Server\VIDEO\rdpdd\
Note If you do not have this key, use Registry Editor to create it.
3. Do one of the following:· If you did not have to create the key in
step 2, change the following value
Name: \Device\Video0
Type: REG_SZ
Value: \REGISTRY\Machine\System\ControlSet001\Services\RD PDD\Device0
to the following:
Name: \Device\Video0
Type: REG_SZ
Value:
\REGISTRY\Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Service s\RDPDD\Device0
· If you had to create the registry key in step 2, add the following
value:
Subkey name: RDPDD
Name: \Device\Video0
Type: REG_SZ
Value:
\REGISTRY\Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Service s\RDPDD\Device0

4. After you change (or create) the value, restart the computer that is
running Terminal Services.
