I've got a Windows 2012 Server VM that I've cloned from another VM.
I've done the following:
- Right-Clicked on "This Computer" -> Properties -> Remote Settings and checked "Allowed Remote Connections to This PC"
- Gone to "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security" -> "Inbound Rules" and made sure that all options for "Remote Desktop - User Mode" are allowed through the firewall.
- Manually started all "Remote Desktop" related services just to see if it would do anything.
- Validated that Remote Desktop is running on the default port of 3389 by looking at the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp
Despite all of this I can't connect to this machine via Remote Desktop. All other network ports seem to work fine and traffic works two directions.
If I run:
netstat -a
I also don't see anything listening on port 3389. As a result it seems Remote Desktop isn't running despite all of what I've done.
