Enable Remote Desktop

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

You can enable Remote Desktop on the server that you are installing as a domain controller so that service administrators can manage the domain controller remotely. Remote Desktop is disabled by default in Windows Server 2003 operating systems.

Use this procedure to enable remote desktop prior to shipping the server that will be installed as a domain controller. If you neglected to perform this procedure prior to shipping the server, use the procedure "To enable Remote Desktop remotely by using the registry," later in this topic

Administrative credentials

To complete this procedure, you must be a member of the local Administrators group.

To enable Remote Desktop

  1. Click Start, point to Control Panel, and then click System.
    Or
    Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.

  2. On the Remote tab, under Remote Desktop, select the Allow users to connect remotely to this computer check box, and then click OK.

    Note

    On computers running Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 (SP1), on the Remote tab, select the Enable Remote Desktop on this computer check box.
