Remote desktop web connection

[imported_JFG]

Hello all,

I have it set up. I have the 2 ports (3389 & specific http) in the firewall. I get to the tsweb screen where I am asked for a servername, which I can fill in. The problem is nothing happens when I click the connect button. Did I miss a step? Possibly IIS problem?

Also,

I was thinking something to do with Active X, but I didn't see it get blocked or prompted to install it

nevermind. It seems RDP doesn't like firefox as a browser. I'm fine w/ IE

OK. But anyone know how to make it work with another browser. It would be a nice feature to use at the local library, but they only have Mozilla

That's just something you have to accept when using MS specific products. OWA (Outlook Web Access) is the same way. It's grumpy under any other browser besides IE.

I can use OWA w/ Mozilla browsers. Not a big deal except I spend a lot of time at the Library, where Mozilla is the only option
