Terminal Services / Computer Management

[Edgar Zapata]

Hi there,
When I try to shutdown a computer remotely, I log on to the DC via TS trhu a VPN connection.
Then I open up dsa.msc, computers OU, select the computer, manage, right click computer Management, properties and want to reach advanced tab.
I get this message instead:
System Properties
Win32: RPC server is unavailable.

Anybody has an idea what may be the cause / solution?

thank you.
regards.

Hi,

is the remote procedure call service started?

greetings,

Michael

yes.
both, the server and the client I want to shutdown had RPC service started.
Plus, I started RPC locator in the client.
It didn't work either.

thank you.
