How to Use the Terminal Servers

This Technical note will describe how to install and use the software needed to use the Windows
2000 Terminal Servers. By logging into the Terminal Servers you can make use of several
engineering applications from home.
Installing the Terminal Server Client on Windows
Windows XP machines come with the Terminal Server Client already installed. If you are using an
older version of Windows, please follow these steps:
1. While connected to the internet point your Internet browser to:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/tools/rdclientdl.mspx
2. Find the file named msrdpcli.exe. Click on this file in order to download it.
3. In the File Download dialog box click on Run this program from its current location
and then click OK.
4. After the download has completed the Security Warning dialog box will appear – click Yes.
5. Next an InstallShield Wizard for Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) will appear -
click Next.
6. In the License Agreement box click on the choice that states I accept the terms in the
license agreement and then click Next.
7. In the Customer Information box enter your information and then click Next.
8. In the next dialog box click Install to install the RDC Client.
9. After the installation is complete the last installation wizard box will appear – click Finish.
10. You must restart your computer and reconnect to the internet in order to use the RDC
Client and before you can connect to a terminal server.
Setting up the Terminal Server Client
1. Go to:
Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications > Remote Desktop Connection
2. In the dialog box, enter CAEN-NTTS.ENGIN.UMICH.EDU and then click Connect:

Figure 1: By default the terminal session will open to the full size of your monitor. To minimize the size of the
terminal screen use the toolbar at the top of the screen as you would any other window.
3. Enter your uniqname and your CAEN Password in the login box. Make sure the Log on to
domain is ENGIN.
4. After entering your correct User name and Password, you will be granted a session to the
terminal server and may use any of the CAEN loaded applications.
Configuring the Terminal Server Client Options
1. Referring back to Figure 1 (the RDC box) – before clicking on Connect, click Options. The
following box will appear with several tabs that allow you to customize your remote desktop
session:
2. General allows for user specific information to be entered. Leave the User name, Password,
and Domain lines blank and do NOT check Save my password. It is NOT recommended
that you save this information for security reasons.
3. Display allows you to set the size of your remote desktop compared to your desktop.
4. Local Resources configures your personal and remote sessions to use sounds, keyboard
functions, and local devices together.
5. Programs allows for you to run a particular program on set-up.
6. It is recommended that you set your connection speed for optimum performance – this is
found under the Experience tab. A few other options are available on this tab such as
bitmap caching.
7. When you are finished configuring your client connection preferences, return to the General
tab and save this connection. Note: Make sure to note the location that you have saved the connection
for future use. You can use this icon to connect to a terminal session with your specified configurations.
Connecting to a Terminal Session Using UNIX/Linux
At the prompt (%), type rdesktop caen-ntts.engin.umich.edu
Connecting to the Terminal Server from Mac OS
Microsoft offers a free Remote Desktop Connection client for Mac OS. See the Other Products
section of the following web page:

Creating a Shutdown/Reboot Icon

WindowsXP has a program called SHUTDOWN.EXE which allows you to easily create icons to shutdown or restart your computer.

To create a shutdown shortcut on the desktop:

Right click on an open area of the desktop
Select New / Shortcut
Enter in "shutdown -s -t 00" - no quotes
Press the Next button
For the name, enter in anything you like. I just use shutdown. Click on the Finish button.

For a reboot, enter "shutdown -r -t 00"

Shutdown [{-l-s-r-a}] [-f] [-m [\\ComputerName]] [-t xx] [-c "message"] [-d[u][p]:xx:yy]

Parameters

-l - Logs off the current user, this is also the defualt. -m ComputerName takes precedence.
-s - Shuts down the local computer.
-r - Reboots after shutdown.
-a - Aborts shutdown. Ignores other parameters, except -l and ComputerName. You can only use -a during the time-out period.
-f - Forces running applications to close.
-m [\\ComputerName] - Specifies the computer that you want to shut down.
-t xx - Sets the timer for system shutdown in xx seconds. The default is 20 seconds.
-c "message" - Specifies a message to be displayed in the Message area of the System Shutdown window. You can use a maximum of 127 characters. You must enclose the message in quotation marks.

Remembering Outlook / Outlook Express Password

On systems, Outlook or Outlook Express will not remember the e-mail password,

which would then need to be entered in each time.

To solve the problem:

Open Registry Editor
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft
Right Click Protected Storage System Provider
Choose the Permissions option
Click the Advanced box near the bottom right hand corner. This should open another box, Towards the bottom of this box there should be two tick boxes, make sure that both of them are ticked. Click Apply, another box will open Click Yes, then Click OK and OK again.
Left Click the + next to Protected Storage System Provider and Delete any sub folder in this tree. (Right clicking and choose the delete option or press the delete key and choosing yes to delete)
Shutdown and Restart Computer.

Renaming the Start Button

To rename the start button, you will need a hex editor.

My preference is UltraEdit

Copy the \windows\explore.exe file to a new name (e.g. explorer_1.exe)
With the hex editor, open that file and go to offset 412b6
You will see the word start with blanks between each letter
Edit it be any 5 characters or less
Save the file
Boot to DOS
Copy the existing c:\windows\explorer.exe to explorer.org
Copy explorer_1.exe to explorer.exe
You will also need to replace the explorer.exe in the c:\windows\system32\dllcache file as well with the new one.

Note: If the partition is NTFS and you can't access the files from DOS:

Start Regedit
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ Winlogon.
Change the value of Shell from Explorer.exe to explorer_1.exe

Adding TCP/IP Printers

To create a connection to a printer connected to your network:

Start to add a new printer through the control panel.
Select Local Printer / Next
Instead of a LPT port, check Create a new port at the bottom on the window
Scroll to Standard TCP/IP Port
Keep going and enter the IP address of the printer.

NTLDR or NTDETECT.COM Not Found

If you get an error that NTLDR is not found during bootup,
If you have FAT32 partitions, it is much simpler than with NTFS. Just boot with a Win98 floppy and copy the NTLDR or NTDETECT.COM files from the i386 directory to the root of the C:\ drive.

Depending on which section was corrupted: ren software software.bad or ren system system.bad
Depending on which section was corrupted : 1. copy \windows\repair\system 2. copy \windows\repair\software
Take out the CD ROM and type exit

HAL.DLL Missing or Corrupt

If you get an error regarding a missing or corrupt hal.dll file, it might simply be the BOOT.INI file on the root of the C: drive that is misconfigured

Insert and boot from your WindowsXP CD.
At the first R=Repair option, press the R key
Press the number that corresponds to the correct location for the installation of Windows you want to repair. Typically this will be #1
Type bootcfg /list to show the current entries in the BOOT.INI file

If you get an error that NTOSKRNL not found:

Insert and boot from your WindowsXP CD.
At the first R=Repair option, press the R key

Change to the drive that has the CD ROM.
CD i386
expand ntkrnlmp.ex_ C:\Windows\System32\ntoskrnl.exe
If WindowsXP is installed in a different location, just make the necessary change to C:\Windows
Take out the CD ROM and type exit

Repair Install Windows XP

If XP is corrupted to the point where none of the previous solutions get it to boot,you can do a Repair Install that might work as well as keep the current settings.

Make sure you have your valid WindowsXP key
Insert and boot from your WindowsXP CD
