I have succesfully installed Windows Server 2012 Essentials. I need to use this server as a terminal Server where <20 may be allowed to make parallel connections.
I have succesfully setted up and activated the Licensing Server and installed 10 Windows 2012 Per User RDS CALS. In Licensing Diagnostics there are no issues, everything is green, Licensing Server is detected with 10 Per User RDS Cals installed. I am using Workgroup mode, hence I have a Samba domain and RDS does not work with Samba domain.
I cannot access Server Manager / Remote Desktop Services, as is not working with Workgroup mode, I get an error that I am logged in as Local User.
The problem is when I try to log in more than 2 users, Windows is asking me to disconnect one the ones already logged in, so it doesn't accept more than 2 parallel connections, just like as I have never installed Remote Desktop Services Role and 10 Per User RDS CALS.
Could you please help? Is a problem with the installation? Is a problem with Windows Server 2012 working in Workgroup mode, or is a problem with setting up the Maximum Number of parallel connections (I know in Windows Server 2008 R2 you can set this up from Remote Desktop Session Host Configuration / Network adapter, but on 2012 this option is not present anymore).
Thank you very much !
