Hi there,
I have a feeling that the issues I’m about to explain are somewhat related but I would like to know if anyone has had the same problems.
We have recently upgraded our 2008 RDS server to Server 2016 running.
The RDS server sits at our main branch and I have VPN's from other branches connecting to the server.
Everything is fine at the other branches except one, I keep getting calls telling me that the Remote Desktop has dropped with the following error.
"A licencing error occured while the client was atempting to connect (Licensing timed out).
Please try connecting to the remote computer again"
I have tried this on Windows 7 and Windows 10. I have also updated the RDS client on the Windows 7 systems.
I have looked on line and there isn't that much on this regarding this problem on Server 2016. If i switch back to my old 2008 Server everything works fine, no connection errors.
It can take a while before users can reconnect. I have checked my VPN's and there are no disruptions with the service, like I said if I connect my 2008 server I get no problems.
The other problem I have is with printing... Damn am I having problems with printing..
All my printers use TCP/IP ports and I have never had any problems with Server 2008, but with Server 2016 it can sometimes take up to 3 mins before I get a print. On the odd occasion it will work and i can get a print out within about 15 secs. These are text prints no pictures just text.
On the old server it would print within 2-3 seconds.
When it does decide to print I will always get an error then after about 1 min I will get another error then it will print. The error is just a general 'Error printing on (printer name). The print queue shows the status as printing then as printing-error that eventually it will print.
I’ve tried a few different drivers and I can get the printer to print eventually.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
