If its only maintenance changes you need use the maintenacen.exe on the remote machines in a batch file like so:
Maintenance.exe hostname=serveralivemachinename hostport=4301 action=maintenance ui=(number of check) /start And then: Maintenance.exe hostname= serveralivemachinename hostport=4301 action=active ui=(number of check) /start To bring it back out of maintenance. Works fine with our team and no RDP confusion anymore ;-) Tobie -----Original Message----- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dirk Bulinckx Sent: 17 September 2007 21:31 To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: RE: [SA-list] Remote Administration via Terminal Services The /CONSOLE option doesn't work in the Win2K TS server, only in the Win2003 server (if memory serves me right) Dirk Bulinckx. -----Original Message----- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Smith, Michael Sent: Monday, September 17, 2007 10:21 PM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: RE: [SA-list] Remote Administration via Terminal Services Thank you for the suggestion, however this doesn't seem to work for me. I connect and still don't see the SA icon in the System Tray. The server is Windows 2000 Server SP4. The SA server is set to login with the SYSTEM account.
