I'm sure I read somewhere that that was the intention with this. It was made to be slightly crude and dated, almost as a nod toward when it should have been released? I spent many a midnight hour, camped in my mates hall corridor with my 17" CRT and DX2 66 with a massive coax network cable (WHO'S GOT A TERMINATOR?!) running from my computer to another 2-3, throwing dollar bills at dancing women and hopping around to avoid getting shot on the original. I'll definitely be giving it a go!

I work with Reg, we're revisiting this continuing problem, so BUMP! Any suggestions/thoughts?

Strike that. I think I've found my answer...

Hello! I'm in a band, we've got a website but it doesn't see that much traffic...Our Facebook "page" sees loads, however. Our Website is redirected by a DNS entry from 1&1 to the moonfruit address where it's hosted. Is there a way of redirecting from the 1&1 domain name to a Facebook "page"?

I'm (hopefully) a future Jafa/NZ Techie. My old man lives in Birkenhead on the North Shore, I currently live in Birkenhead on the Wirral?! Looking to move out there by this time next year, so any advice from you NZers on how to get into gainful employment over there would be very welcome!

Ah, are you a member of Basschat then? I like yer Jazz V, the black/gold/maple looks good. I'm just about to trade my Geddy Jazz for a Jaguar, but once my finances are back in order, I'll be looking to add a Precision and re-buy a Peavey T40. Amplification wise, I play through a Sansamp and our Mackie PA - lightweight!

Sounds to me like we need a bass thread... Oh, my band! - The Lowtones Classic and Alt rock covers, I know I know...

I'm a bassist in a band too, not a brassist though...

Just had a cold call from Re-Tek asking if we'd like to make some money out of any old equipment we might be getting rid of. Does anyone have any experience with them? Ben.

I think this might be the problem: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2270/5715825048_f8b1995f2c.jpg I try to assign a cert, there are none available. Do I need to install an Enterprise CA role to request a certificate for the Session server?

It doesn't no, we don't have any AD CA's installed actually.

The Gateway is set to use the following settings: And the session host is set to the default cert:

Yes, the RD Gateway role is on the RDWeb server, whether it's configured correctly is a different matter... The self signed certificate, remote.schooldomain.co.uk is installed on on the Gateway.

Sorry to ressurect an old thread, but I had to take a bit of time off from this, so didn't manage to try out those certificate suggestions. Here's where I'm at... Staff will log into https://remote.schooldomain.co.uk/rdweb, currently I have a self created certificate securing that site. Staff then click on the Remote Desktop icon which redirects them to a server called session.schooldomain.local. Currently, when you click that icon, it displays a warning that the identity of the session host can't be verified, do you want to proceed anyway. It gives the certificate name as: session.schooldomain.local which isn't from a trusted authority. I've tried a redirection within DNS from remote.schooldomain.co.uk to the IP of the session host, but that had no effect, same thing happens... Am I being stupid?!

It's the standard OTA update. No custom ROM. I read they still hadn't addressed the proxy issue somewhere, so it's a bit of a surprise...My Android version is 2.3.3, HTC Sense version is 2.1.

I've just updated my Desire HD to Gingerbread and I've got an integrated proxy tool. Works fine too, well on the browser at least.

Transport Tycoon Deluxe and Counter Strike (12 years old?!)

The Samsung Galaxy S II gets a great review at Engadget. My Girlfriend has the Galaxy S and it's a lovely phone to use, much lighter than my Desire HD and the screen is lovely. I quite like their UI too, over the HTC one. They've had a quick look at the Sensation too.

Quick update - I went over to the house yesterday, it's not a laptop, but a desktop with a dongle connecting... It was connecting to "VirtualProfile" which was a different one of our 3 unsecured SSID's each time. Tried "forgetting" the connection, but it still connected. After a quick google search, it looks like Windows7 doesn't like the Netgear dongle they have, so there's no way of forcing Windows to control the wireless connections. Simple solution, just download the device driver without the Netgear software and everything should be hunky-dory! I'll do that later, 10 minutes of my time to keep some neighbours happy is time well spent in my opinion.

Hi James, thanks for your pointers here and there, I've got it working. It's a self signed jobbie to start with, just to prove the concept and it's working finally... Just for my sanity, what certificates do I need? One for the RDWeb access and one for the Session Host server?

Ok, sort of getting there...I'm no longer getting the "Remote Desktop can't find the computer "sessionhost.blah.local"...." error as it's pointing to the RDGateway server, however, I'm getting a "Your computer can't connect to the remote computer because the Remote Desktop Gateway server address is unreachable or incorrect. Type a valid RDG server address". Would that point to a certificate problem? I've created one for http://www.remote.prentonxxx.local and imported it into the client, but that hasn't fixed the problem..?

It's pretty frustrating, to be honest! When I click on Remote Desktop (the icon, not the tab where you can enter a computer name) it has the session host server specified. It looks as if it can't resolve the DNS name to the server as it's not on the internal network. At a guess, I need to point the RD icon to the RDGateway which will resolve the DNS name of the session host...but it's working out where to put what names and redirects!

Thanks for that. We've got a remote subdomain set up which has an SSL cert attached, so the users get to the RDWeb page with no problems and authenticate too, it's at the point when they click on Remote Desktop that we get the error. I'll take a look at setting up an RD Gateway.

Hello, just trying to set up remote access through RDWeb to a Session Host, but while it works fine internally, as soon as I try to connect from an external network, I get a "Remote Desktop can't find the computer "sessionhost.blah.local". This might mean that "sessionhost.blah.local" does not belong to the specified network. Verify the computer name and domain that you are trying to connect to." Do I need to set up a broker or gateway? Massively confused, as usual....
