I am trying to re-enable Remote Desktop Connection ability to a windows 2008 server after I accidentally disabled it. I know the IP address of the server where it is installed. How would I do this via SSH or another computer on the network. I really need to get my access back to the server admin settings.

I was able to use remote desktop connection application and disabled it via the windows interface on the server.– hoskerFeb 17, 2014 at 21:54

See here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc794832%28v=ws.10%29.aspx for how to enable it remotely via the registry.
But honestly this is a 2 second Google search...http://viewrz.com/video/google-it

I have tried that but I do not have a name of the server, only the IP address– hoskerFeb 17, 2014 at 22:14

I have done the 2 minute google search route and nothing I did try or find has fixed my issue. I have been at this for a few days now.– hoskerFeb 17, 2014 at 22:17

1Use the IP instead of the name then. Same things apply in that Technet article. Open regedit, choose to connect to a remote network hive, enter the IP...connect....then change the registry setting. Feb 17, 2014 at 22:23

I did that but it would not accept it. The internal ip is 192.168.0.4. Is there a specific way I have to format it?– hoskerFeb 17, 2014 at 22:30
