Hi Jeff
I agree in normal circumstances the OPEN ADMINISTRATION WINDOW view is
fine. It is in the case where something unexpected has gone wrong,
although you might think you have covered every error scenario with an
ON ERROR proc. With V16 if you don't use Interactive Services Detection
then your 4D procedure running on the server will just abort quietly as
soon as it tries to put up a dialog, or have I read the docs incorrectly.
If 4D Server would at least write the dialog message to the system event
log then you would get a clue what was wrong.

What do you need to do on the server itself compared to what's available in the
OPEN ADMINISTRATION WINDOW view from the client?

The gotcha with Server2016 is that although you can enable Interactive Services
Detection, session 0 does not accept keyboard and mouse events. Microsoft
argues this is not a bug, but a defence against hacking, however so many people
use RDC for remote server management that they are hoping pester power will
change their minds.
An alternative option is VNC in its various flavours, but is frowned upon by
system admins.
I am leaning towards using a user to run the 4D servers and lock the session
between RDC sessions.
