I need the general users to access their office computers via the Remote
Web Workspace.
If they try... they get a Internet Explorer message...
This portion of the Remote Web Workplace requires Microsoft Remote Desktop
ActiveX Connection. Your browser's security settings may be preventing you
from downloading ActiveX controls. Adjust these settings and try to connect
again."

It works fine from my own laptop... XP Pro - SR2
It doesn't work for XP Home - SR2, although RDC does work directly to the
server.

I've tried it on a Windows 98 computer, but only mine seems to work.

We need the users to be able to use this feature for any Web-Cafe.

Please Help.

I added the url to the trusted sites and it still doesn't work.
I actually attached the laptop to the local network, then tried it. The
ActiveX component downloaded.
I realize that being local is different, but I am thinking that I might need
to open an different port on the router for the Server to send the ActiveX
component out to the connecting computers.

it is a SBS2003 setup with ISA (the standard lighter version) active.
It seems to be happening on too many different types of remote computers for
it NOT to be something with the server/router/firewall at the server site.

No.. It is the basic version of SBS2003
I've look at it some more and think that the server isn't setup correctly to
download the activeX.

I've tried connecting with laptops that are on the local lan and had the
same problem. XPhome no domain, XP office on and off of the domain/logged
in as Administrator and the website as part of the trusted group in IE.

I have tried it at other SBS2003 servers and the activeX downloads with a
MessageBox confirmation.

Thanks for your help

Everything looks like it was setup correctly. And the wizards were all run.

I did notice that the cab file that contains the activeX component in tsweb
was attached to a winzip format.
But I removed the association. Do I need to create a different association
for the cab files?

I'm grabbing at anything at this point.

I was having a problem with this on a WIN98 client. A user was trying to connect to SBS2003 Standard through RWW. The TSWEB upgrade stuff got me into trouble, it trashed some of my stock RWW pages and I had to do some reinstall stuff to fix it.

After trying a bunch of other stuff from a variety of posts, including a complete reinstall of Windows, I resolved the problem with information from this post: http://www.winserverhelp.com/ftopic51910.html. I had to modify the routine just slightly and I did post a response to that post. Here is what I did:

I exploded the msrdp.cab to a Folder (I chose C:\WINDOWS\SYSBCKUP, no particular reason and I don't know if that is the best place for it.)

Then opened a command prompt and navigated to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM (location of the REGSVR32 command) and executed:

regsvr32 "C:\WINDOWS\SYSBCKUP\msrdp.ocx". The command returned a successful response.

Problem solved. Win98 client can now connect to SBS server via the internet. Hope this helps.
