About a week ago, the nice new RD Gateway/RD Webb Apps setup I've built for our new network has stopped working externally, giving the following error.

 

Your computer can't connect to the remote computer because the remote desktop gateway server is temporarily unavailable.

 

RD Web Apps and RD Gateway are on the same server at the moment, and the RD web apps page loads, can be authenticated against and you can launch programs (which then fail with the above message). Directly connecting using MSTSC (with the gateway settings) does the same thing.

 

RD Web Apps show the correct the External RDGateway address (rds.myschool.co.uk)

 

The RDG Service is running

 

 

Here is hoping that you guys have an idea on where to start, as there are now errors on either the client or server.

 

Thanks in advance, Ben

Thanks, but I've solved this.

 

Going through our change requests enlightened me to one of my Techs setting a http redirect in IIS to redirect staff to the login page. Because the gateway is on the same server it basically tries to redirect request to the gateway as well. Taking off all the redirects fixes the problem.
