I have a customized program that I need to run remotely (in order to use the computing power of my server). I have run into a problem in which this program doesn't seem to work when it isn't using the local console in Windows Server 2008. I found this out after trying to use it under RemoteApp. The developer of the program isn't willing to try to figure out how to fix it at all (note: it is a technical issue, not a licensing issue).
So my question is, is there any way to handle this or trick the program into thinking it is being used locally? I am willing to sacrifice the "nice" features of RemoteApp and am even willing to go so far as to say I will only have one person logged in at a time. The only requirement is I need to be remote and I can't use VNC.
Thanks for your help.
Try using the /admin switch with connecting via RDP from a recent RDP client.. It connects actually lets you view the console on Windows 2003 machines.
