Hi We currently have multiple Windows 2003 terminal servers (farm) that are load balanced using an F5 load balancer and the Terminal Server session directory service. We have the terminal servers setup to only allow one connection per user. This ensures that if a user is disconnected they are reconnected to their original session and no work is lost. This works great with the Windows clients; however we have a problem with rdesktop. The original sign-in is ok; however the problem occurs under the following circumstances. User logs into Server A works for a while and is then disconnected. User attempts to reconnect and the load balance routes to server B which upon login using the Terminal Server Session Directory Service notices the user should be on Server A and redirects accordingly (We have attempted to use both token and IP redirection). This is the point where rdesktop breaks. The users cannot login unless they get routed back to their original server. We have the following queries with regards to the above scenario: 1.) Is redirection using session directory token and IP redirection supported? Also is there a support for F5 load balancer as in the above case? 2.) If yes could you please let us know the part of the source code which implements these techniques? 3.) Could you point us to any whitepapers or documents detailing these techniques/implementations? Your help would be highly appreciated. Thanks and Regards Sarvesh |

You should understand that not many developers in this mailing list actually have a configuration list yours to reproduce your problem and test a solution. > 3.)
