With the UR3 update to the SBS 2011 Best Practices Analyzer, you may see a new warning:
The certificate for the Remote Desktop Gateway service seems to be bound incorrectly
Source: 432
This issue may cause users to not connect to Remote Web Workplace.
The resolution is to run the following commands from an administrator-level command prompt:
REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\HTTP\Parameters\SslBindingInfo\0.0.0.0:443 /v DefaultFlags /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
net stop tsgateway
net start tsgateway
To help you in this process, I have already put these commands into a file for you to use:
- Click KB-2472211-RDP-Gateway-Fix.txt to download and save this file
- After saving the file, Rename the suffix of the file name from .txt to .bat
- Right click on the file, and click to Run as Administrator
- I’ve included a pause statement in the file so you can verify that it ran properly
Rerun BPA and the warning message should no longer display.
For more information on this issue, its impact and resolution, please check out Microsoft’s KB 2472211 article.
EDIT: Fixed reference to net start tsgateway. Thanks, Alexander!
