Windows 2003 modify the number of Remote Desktop connections

The number of remote terminal connections allowed by Windows Server 2003 by default is 2 users, and we can increase the number of users who have remote connections online at the same time as needed.

Click start → run, enter gpedit.msc to open the Group Policy Editor window, and then navigate to the Computer configuration (computer configuration) → Administrative Templates (Administrative Templates) →windows component ( Windows components) → Terminal Services (terminal Service), double-click the limit number of connections on the right (limit count of connections), and then double-click to open the Configuration window (limit of Connections properties), select Enabled to set the maximum number of connections allowed for its TS maximum connections allowed to the required quantity.

You may find that this change in effect is not effective! The maximum number of users who can log on after the modification is 2. In fact, the above operation is only one step, to achieve simultaneous multiple user logins, you need to install a system component in Windows Server 2003: the Terminal Server component.

The following is a detailed description of the multiple user login Windows Server 2003 operating system steps for reference:

Install the Terminal Server build first, select Add or Remove Windows components in Add or Remove Programs under Control Panel, and choose the Terminal Server option in the pop-up dialog box (Figure 1)

Figure 1

The installer then makes a system description of the system components that you install, recommending that the user or administrator for the first installation read the details (Figure 2)

Figure 2

When you click "Next", the system will pop up as shown in Figure 3 dialog box to allow you to choose the default permissions, the permissions of remote users that are controlled by these two modes are important when they log on to the local computer, and the "Full security model" is more secure and safer, and, of course, administrators can also use Terminal Services Configuration The tool sets the detailed security options; Relaxed Safe Mode "has poor security performance and is not recommended for selection."

Of course, Microsoft has defined this build as a fee-setting, so a query dialog box pops up at installation--well, there's a trial option, and it's a long time (Figure 4). We choose "... Within 120 days ... "

The following is the licensing mode when you log on to the server (Figure 5) We select "Per User licensing mode" and the system restarts after the installation completes.

After the installation is complete and the system restarts, we modify the maximum number of connections to expand the same way as the article begins. Click start → run, enter gpedit.msc to open the Group Policy Editor window, and then navigate to the Computer configuration (computer configuration) → Administrative Templates (Administrative Templates) →windows component ( Windows components) → Terminal Services (terminal Service), double-click the limit number of connections on the right (limit count of connections), and then double-click to open the Configuration window (limit of Connections properties), select Enabled to set the maximum number of connections allowed for its TS maximum connections allowed to the required quantity.

Of course, this only restricts the expansion of the number of connections, and for settings such as the details of the session, there is also a detailed set of methods in Group Policy, as shown in Figure 6:

Figure 6

All right, here we go. To modify the maximum number of connections The basic operation is completed, the next is the local authority assigned, the specific steps are as follows:

First create a local account, the right size administrator is more specific, and then add the account to the Telnet group (remote Desktop users) so that users can log on to the computer through this account! As shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7

This is basically the end of the operation, but when the user remote login will find that the same account login can only have a session, how to make the same account login can have more than one session! (This applies to multiple people using the same account to log on to the server host)

In fact, you can set it in server settings under Terminal Services Configuration by setting the "Restrict each user to use one session" property to "no"! (as shown in Figure 8)
