Trying to troubleshoot a problem from a previous tech,
RDP does not work to an SBS 2011 machine. If I mstsc /v "servername or IP" I get:
"your remote desktop connection failed, because the remote computer cannot be authenticated. "
"Certificate Name -> Name in the certificate from the remote computer: *.customerdomain.tld"
"Certificate errors -> ..errors were encountered while validating...: The certificate is not valid for this usage"
I get the feeling the remote desktop roles were installed and someone messed around with them.
Following the ONLY guide I can find, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2472211
I'm supposed to "ensure I never click yes". I suspect the previous tech did click yes. If I attempt to set the reg keys as mentioned in that article, I get "syntax error" with no helpful details.
How do I replace the certificate correctly with ANYTHING that will allow me to RDP to the machine. VNC just ain't going to cut it forever. :P
