Answered Remote useres - Windows Server 2012

    Hello

    I installed windows 2012 server at the company where I work, I installed the service terminal server and now to add the users only when they are part of the group administrators can log on. I saw several forums and the only step to do would be to add users to the group "users of Remote Desktop", but following this step when I try to log tells me it can not connect me because I have no privileges. The error message it gives is: "To start remotely, you must have the right to log on through the services of Remote Desktop. This is a right which by definition only admistrators have ..." My problem is that with all administrators have privileges to manipulate the server and it is not at all safe.
    Someone can help me?
    thank you

    If you receive "To start remotely, you must have the right to log on through the services of Remote Desktop. This is a right which by definition only admistrators have ...", make sure you configure RDG CAps and RAPs correctky. this how to may help

    If you don't want "all administrators have privileges to manipulate the server", you may want to re-configure Allow log on through emote desktop Services in Local Security Policy.

    Hi Jansalex,

    I solved the problem when I added the computers to the domain!

    You can see the toturial on the link below:

    After adding the domain, removes users and group administrators can already access without being an administrator.
    I remind you that the service "terminal server" must be configured.

    And the user? is part of a workgroup? 

    How many users you have? 

    In your case, may be its possble you keep your users with administrators access...

    I´m testing with one user only. I have installed TS licenses for 5 users.

    If I put the User as an administrator I can logon.

    Under remote desktop users cannot logon.

    Make sure you add the user or group to the Remote Desktop connection authorization policies (RD CAPs) that allows you to specify who can connect to an RD Gateway server and Remote Desktop resource authorization policies (RD RAPs) that allows you to specify  which  internal network resources that remote users can connect to through an RD Gateway server. Here is how to
