    Hello,

    I am trying to change the text fields in server 2012 RDWeb Pages and I cannot seem to find it. I have tried changing in the following files

    default.aspx

    desktop.aspx

    login.aspx

    password.aspx

    Beside the string L_CompanyName_text

    but this doesn't work.

    I have checked online and I only see references to 2008 and before. I have tried those as well but no success.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Hi,


    It’s possible to customize rdweb page by HTML editor or just the notepad. But please note:


    · The customization of the system-shipped page may cause unexpected risk or instability.

    · The future updates or service packs for related products may overwrite the modified version you customized.

    So in general, we don’t recommend you to customize the Web pages under %windir%\web\rdweb . If you really need to do so, please backup the original file and the modified version in another place.

    In addition,

    · The RDWebAccess.config is to provide the content of the page;

    · The config.aspx is to provide the display of the Web page;

    · The CSS file tswa.css located in %windir%\web\RDWeb\Pages\en-us\, controls the display style of the page.

    Hope it helps.
    regards,

    Clarence

    Hi,

    On your 2012 RD Connection Broker server(s) you may change the following registry value:

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Terminal Server\CentralizedPublishing

    WorkspaceName     REG_SZ

    After making the change you may need to recycle the RDWebAccess app pool using IIS Manager on your RDWeb server(s).

    Please reply back here with your results.

    Thanks.
