3 servers, unable to RDP

[Joe U.]

Good morning all,

Very very wierd, over the weekend I have 3 servers that stopped accepting
RDP connections. Each server is running Server 2003 standard blades and all
3 servers are hosting peoplesoft.

I checked the following things so far.
-Terminal Services is listed as running (although set for manual)
-Remote Connections are enabled
-If I attempt to telnet to the servername/port (3389) it comes back with
"connection closed by foreign host" pretty quickly
-Firewall is off

I am looking for other suggestions as to how to troubleshoot this. Thanks
for the help.

Couple options:
1. Reboot the boxes assuming you did not do it.
2. Delete the RDP-tcp listener and recreate it (launch TSCC.MSC on the TS to
do that).
