I have had a few issues with RDP especially on x64 servers. Have had to turn off firewall on server and sometimes disable and re-enable RDP.
As long as user is member of local admin he should be able to RDP to server by default.

I manually put my username in the allow logon to terminal services. Same error. In the event log I only see a security entry of logon and then logoff. Not sure where to go with it.

I don't have any links handy but a little google-fu should turn them up. There were a couple of hotfixes alleged to fix it that were met with mixed reactions. Susan Bradley spread it around a lot and I think our own MBS may have blogged about it, I know I've seen emails here from him on the subject From: James Rankin [mailto:kz2...@googlemail.com] Sent: Friday, November 06, 2009 10:00 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: rdp / citrix error I get that error occasionally on some of my Citrix servers (neither RDP or ICA can log on, with that error) and a restart clears it. No idea why it happens. 2009/11/6 Benjamin Zachary - Lists <li...@levelfive.us> I have a metaframe 4 server that is responding with the user cannot logon to the computer because your not in the Remote Desktop Users Group. Even the admin account cannot logon, although I can logon locally. I went and checked that domain users and the admin acct are both in the group. I went into local security policy and that group is also there with administrators group. As a test I manually added the administrator account but that didn't seem to have any effect. I get the same error with RDP so this doesn't seem to be a citrix issue. Anyone else seen the RDP perms blow up? I guess I can recreate the connector ??? although I get to the login screen and am able to put credentials in. -- "On two occasions...I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'
