  I configured the terminal services session to listen on only the internal network adapter on a W2k8 server with remote desktop for admin only. Initially, it worked. However, it degraded and stopped working altogether. I attempted to roll back the change but when I open the network adapter tab of the terminal session properties a message pops up stating:

  "Terminal Services Configuration tool is not able to obtain the properties for this connection. the connection has either been deleted or the internal state of this connection has been corrupted. Please close all propery pages and select refresh from the menu."

  Of course, selecting refresh doesn't help. Restarting terminal services doesn't help. Disabling and reenabling the Network adapter doesn't help. Rebooting the server doesn't help. Any other suggestions would be helpful.

  Hi,

  Did you added or remove the NIC card from machine after configuring the Terminal server to listen on one nic?

  To get this rectified you may try below steps:

  1. Change the value ofHKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\LanAdapter to 0.
  2. Close and restart the server manger mmc.
  3. go to network adapter tab in the RDS config properties and again select the desired adapter you want to listen on.
