Use RD Gateway to direct users to certain term server?
772
Is it possible to configure RD Gateway to, depending on a users group, point them to one term server or another? Just trying to make it work on the domain right now.
RD gateway is designed to allow you to go to an internal machine from an outside network (ie..Internet for example). For example, connect to your desktop at the office from home wihtout exposing your desktop to the internet.
If you wanted to do this, you would simply specify which server you wanted them to connect to in the RDP client as well as specifiying the gateway. Maybe point them to a CNAME that you can change in DNS so you can move them around if you want to. something like rdp1.domain.com CNAME to TS1.domain.com. This way if you ever want to move them around later, you could. If you don't have a ton of users, you could add a CNAME entry for each user and let DNS move them around for you when they login. Keep in mind, you will probably have some certificate issues to overcome if the machine names don't match. Not sure if RDP supports using subject alternate names in certs.
There is probably a much better way to do this as the above solution would be complicated to admin. A clustering solution might be easier, but probably not cheaper.

I can clarify more if needed, just ask away.
