Hello,
I encounter a very strange problem when trying to connect to a terminal
server from Macintosh computers.
This is the setup:
There's is one Windows 2003 Server running terminal services. PC users
connect to this server to do their daily job. Users are working in the
local
network, from a remote site (trough a site to site VPN) and from home over
a
VPN connection and trough Remote Web Workplace. None of the PC users have
trouble to log on to the server.
User authentication and admission to the network is done by ISA server
2006.
The issue occurs with Mac clients:
They can connect to the Terminal server when they are in the local network
and when they are in the remote site (trough ipsec tunnel).
When they try to log in from home, the user first dials the VPN dialer to
connect to the cor****ate network. So far so good.
When they try to connect to the Terminal server, no connection is made.
Following things hav been checked in depth:
- ping to the terminal server trough the VPN tunnel from the mac client
works
- Connection to other Windows servers (W2000 non Terminal servers) works
as
well
- I replaced the RDP client with the new 2.0 Beta client --> doesn't
resolve
the problem
- I replaced the RDP client with a third party client --> no sollution
- I tried to connect with a regular PC from the same cable at home from
the
user trough a VPN connection --> this works, so it is not related to
network
problems
- I tried to connect to the terminal server of another customer trough a
VPN
tunnel --> this works as well
- I tried with other Macintosh computers --> doesn't work neither
Can anyone help me on this issue? It's really driving me nuts, as the
logic
of the problem is not really what I should expect.
Does it has something to do with the ISA config?
Thanks in advance,
