    I'm struggling with a couple of 2012R2 servers within a domain which don't have Terminal Services Role installed but certain users need to connect to them for some dev work. What happens is even with my admin account a disconnected session (Remote desktop window closed) gets logged off after 1 min. Looking through the security log I see a couple of things I don't quite get. E.g. when I leave my RD window open but idle and it gets to the logon screen I can log back on not loosing my session yet in the event log I see 4634 "An account was logged off" then 4624 "Account successfully logged on" a couple of times followed by 4800 "The workstation was locked" and 1448 "A logon was attempted using explicit credentials". After a while I see 4634 again even though I'm still looking at the screen which I don't understand.

    When I close the RD window and reconnect after 1min I see 4634 (log off) with logon type 7 followed by 4634 logon type 3. Then 4779 "A session was disconnected from a Windows Station" and a minute later 4647 "User initiated logoff" hello???

    I checked gpresult and I found the setting I specifically set for the above not to happen so we've got:

    Admin Templates:

    • Local Policy: MaxIdleTime: disabled
    • Local Policy:MaxDisconnectionTime: disabled

    with the above repeated for user configuration. On top of that I have the following registry set

    • KeepAliveEnable: 1
    • KeepAliveInterval:

    Where else should I be looking?

    Just remembered there is another reg key for TS under HKLM\System\Current..\Control\TS\Winstation\RDP-TCP (roughly from memory) where the keys above are present as well. I was playing with them and failing under HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsNT\TS\

    I can only assume now after things are working they way I need them the later apply only when the Remote desktop infrastructure Role is in place.
