RE: What is the latest version of RDP client for Win7?
To me, that just show that MS have a gaping big hole in their test plans. As a lot of organisations are still on IPv4 and don't use IPv6, to me not testing the effects of disabling IPv6 is a major fail. It's a bit like We won't test it on a 32-bit OS, because we want everyone to use 64-bit.

The Argument against Disabling IPv6 It is unfortunate that some organizations disable IPv6 on their computers running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008, where it is installed and enabled by default. Many disable IPv6-based on the assumption that they are not running any applications or services that use it. Others might disable it because of a misperception that having both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled effectively doubles their DNS and Web traffic. This is not true. From Microsoft's perspective, IPv6 is a mandatory part of the Windows operating system and it is enabled and included in standard Windows service and application testing during the operating system development process. Because Windows was designed specifically with IPv6 present, Microsoft does not perform any testing to determine the effects of disabling IPv6. If IPv6 is disabled on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, or later versions, some components will not function. Moreover, applications that you might not think are using IPv6?such as Remote Assistance, HomeGroup, DirectAccess, and Windows Mail?could be. Therefore, Microsoft recommends that you leave IPv6 enabled, even if you do not have an IPv6-enabled network, either native or tunneled. By leaving IPv6 enabled, you do not disable IPv6-only applications and services (for example, HomeGroup in Windows 7 and DirectAccess in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are IPv6-only) and your hosts can take advantage of IPv6-enhanced connectivity. http://207.46.16.252/en-us/magazine/2009.07.cableguy.aspx From: Steven M.

The Argument against Disabling IPv6 It is unfortunate that some organizations disable IPv6 on their computers running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008, where it is installed and enabled by default. Many disable IPv6-based on the assumption that they are not running any applications or services that use it. Others might disable it because of a misperception that having both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled effectively doubles their DNS and Web traffic. This is not true. From Microsoft's perspective, IPv6 is a mandatory part of the Windows operating system and it is enabled and included in standard Windows service and application testing during the operating system development process. Because Windows was designed specifically with IPv6 present, Microsoft does not perform any testing to determine the effects of disabling IPv6. If IPv6 is disabled on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, or later versions, some components will not function. Moreover, applications that you might not think are using IPv6-such as Remote Assistance, HomeGroup, DirectAccess, and Windows Mail-could be. Therefore, Microsoft recommends that you leave IPv6 enabled, even if you do not have an IPv6-enabled network, either native or tunneled. By leaving IPv6 enabled, you do not disable IPv6-only applications and services (for example, HomeGroup in Windows 7 and DirectAccess in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are IPv6-only) and your hosts can take advantage of IPv6-enhanced connectivity. http://207.46.16.252/en-us/magazine/2009.07.cableguy.aspx From: Steven M.

From Microsoft's perspective, IPv6 is a mandatory part of the Windows operating system and it is enabled and included in standard Windows service and application testing during the operating system development process. Because Windows was designed specifically with IPv6 present, Microsoft does not perform any testing to determine the effects of disabling IPv6. If IPv6 is disabled on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, or later versions, some components will not function. Moreover, applications that you might not think are using IPv6—such as Remote Assistance, HomeGroup, DirectAccess, and Windows Mail—could be. Therefore, Microsoft recommends that you leave IPv6 enabled, even if you do not have an IPv6-enabled network, either native or tunneled. By leaving IPv6 enabled, you do not disable IPv6-only applications and services (for example, HomeGroup in Windows 7 and DirectAccess in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are IPv6-only) and your hosts can take advantage of IPv6-enhanced connectivity. http://207.46.16.252/en-us/magazine/2009.07.cableguy.aspx From: Steven M.

Re: What is the latest version of RDP client for Win7?
Watch out for devices that say they support IPV6 but don't actually have the hardware resources necessary. Just yesterday I had to increase the memory of three routers to get IPV6 support. Without the memory increase, one router wouldn't download the firmware--not enough room--and the other two ran like dogs. Phil On Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 9:56 AM, Andrew S.

Others might disable it because of a misperception that having both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled effectively doubles their DNS and Web traffic. This is not true. From Microsoft's perspective, IPv6 is a mandatory part of the Windows operating system and it is enabled and included in standard Windows service and application testing during the operating system development process. Because Windows was designed specifically with IPv6 present, Microsoft does not perform any testing to determine the effects of disabling IPv6. If IPv6 is disabled on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, or later versions, some components will not function. Moreover, applications that you might not think are using IPv6—such as Remote Assistance, HomeGroup, DirectAccess, and Windows Mail—could be. Therefore, Microsoft recommends that you leave IPv6 enabled, even if you do not have an IPv6-enabled network, either native or tunneled. By leaving IPv6 enabled, you do not disable IPv6-only applications and services (for example, HomeGroup in Windows 7 and DirectAccess in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are IPv6-only) and your hosts can take advantage of IPv6-enhanced connectivity. http://207.46.16.252/en-us/magazine/2009.07.cableguy.aspx *From:* Steven M.

I would add Vista and 7 as well but I have not done a lot of testing on that issue. I know some of the products like WSUS were having an issue with Vista clients not having IP6 turned on. I don't remember what the issue was but they had problems connecting reliably to the server.

I've had IPV6 disabled on Vista since forever and have never had any issues talking to my WSUS server.

RE: What is the latest version of RDP client for Win7?
The Argument against Disabling IPv6 It is unfortunate that some organizations disable IPv6 on their computers running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008, where it is installed and enabled by default. Many disable IPv6-based on the assumption that they are not running any applications or services that use it. Others might disable it because of a misperception that having both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled effectively doubles their DNS and Web traffic. This is not true. From Microsoft's perspective, IPv6 is a mandatory part of the Windows operating system and it is enabled and included in standard Windows service and application testing during the operating system development process. Because Windows was designed specifically with IPv6 present, Microsoft does not perform any testing to determine the effects of disabling IPv6. If IPv6 is disabled on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, or later versions, some components will not function.

RE: What is the latest version of RDP client for Win7?
As Bob said, IPv6 is the party line at Microsoft. They've made large investments in rewriting the IP protocol stack and in the support of 6to4 and Teredo client/server/relay.

The Argument against Disabling IPv6 It is unfortunate that some organizations disable IPv6 on their computers running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008, where it is installed and enabled by default. Many disable IPv6-based on the assumption that they are not running any applications or services that use it. Others might disable it because of a misperception that having both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled effectively doubles their DNS and Web traffic. This is not true. From Microsoft's perspective, IPv6 is a mandatory part of the Windows operating system and it is enabled and included in standard Windows service and application testing during the operating system development process. Because Windows was designed specifically with IPv6 present, Microsoft does not perform any testing to determine the effects of disabling IPv6. If IPv6 is disabled on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, or later versions, some components will not function. Moreover, applications that you might not think are using IPv6-such as Remote Assistance, HomeGroup, DirectAccess, and Windows Mail-could be. Therefore, Microsoft recommends that you leave IPv6 enabled, even if you do not have an IPv6-enabled network, either native or tunneled. By leaving IPv6 enabled, you do not disable IPv6-only applications and services (for example, HomeGroup in Windows 7 and DirectAccess in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are IPv6-only) and your hosts can take advantage of IPv6-enhanced connectivity. http://207.46.16.252/en-us/magazine/2009.07.cableguy.aspx From: Steven M.

RE: What is the latest version of RDP client for Win7?
That may be the case, but IPv6 is relatively new and _WIDELY_ unused in many environments. So, good security practice says that you minimize your exposure surface, and explicitly allow only what you need. If my entire infrastructure is IPv4 based, then a default deny/disable of IPv6 is a reasonable security posture. I don't enable IPX or other protocols, because _I_ don't use them. If there's a dependency that requires IPv6, then let's see explicit documentation of what it is. Lack of documentation because you haven't had time to catch up from you previously poorly adopted product which built those dependencies is... well quite frankly, shoddy. -sc From: Michael B.

RE: What is the latest version of RDP client for Win7?
Please correct me if I am wrong, but by default Server 2008 will only allow connects from RDP if they are Win7/Vista or another Server 2008. This is the default behavior, but you can change that. At least that is what I remember on our server setup's. However I have not setup a 2008 server in over 5 months.

It depends on what level of security the 2008 server will allow. If it is setup to only allow with the highest security then I think only Vista/7 clients will work. Which is what Terry is indicating.
