It’s when the simple things don’t work that I get mad. I’ve been working on one of our servers all day using Windows Terminal Services in remote administration mode. Somewhere between Thanksgiving dinner #1 and #2, my connection decided to drop causing it to continue to run on the server. While this typically wouldn’t be a problem, it appears that someone else has done the same thing (probably not today) which now makes it impossible to log into my server remotely.

Before I continue, I must now profess my love for Google.

I love Google!

Okay, now that I”m done with that, I ran across this post outlining two tools that allow you to remotely manage a terminal server from the command line – qwinsta and rwinsta.

Yeah, that’s it, I”m done now – read the post for more information. Did you actually think I was going to rewrite something that’’s already been written. Ass.
