Now I’ll log on to a client machine in my domain to test the newly published Calculator. On the client open up Internet Explorer and enter “http://YourWebAccessServer/rdweb”.
Click “Continue to this website” in the browser window.
You may receive a warning about the ActiveX control not being installed. I’ve generally only seen this on Windows XP clients. To fix this reset your IE internet settings by clicking Tools > Internet Options.
Click the Advanced tab. Then click the Reset button. Click through the dialog boxes. Once you’re back at the IE browser windows, close IE and reopen it. Now you go back to “http://YourWebAccessServer/rdweb” and click through the certificate warning you should be presented with the RD Web Access log on screen.
When a user with standard privileges on the client accesses the RD Web Access site for the first time they will receive a warning about installing the Remote Desktop ActiveX Control. Confirm that you trust the web site address you are contacting. You probably will because you should be accessing your own server!
Click the warning message at the top and select Run Add On.
Now click Run.
Log on with a user you’ve given access to Remote Desktop sessions. The administrator should automatically be given access. Be sure and specify the domain first if you are using a domain account.
You’ll receive a warning about unable to identify the remote connection publisher, click Connect.
It will now ask for you to log on to the the RD session. Enter the user name in the Domain\Username format.
And another warning will appear about identity verification, click Yes. We’ll set up a new certificate from a trusted certificate authority later to eliminate this message. The RemoteApp should now launch.
