I remember one of my student in Windows Server Network Infrastructure Management Training asked me this question, Setup remoteapp server 2012 r2Add Remoteapp Server 2012'How do we add programs to the RemoteApp Programs List in the RDS server?' He asked me this question because I am currently demonstrating the features and capability of an RDS server in Windows 2008 R2.
Today, I am going to show you on how we can add programs to the RemoteApp Program Lists in RDS. Of course, this will be a step by step guide with images. I got the guide from technet, I just simply inserted my own server images on it.
So, let's start!!
Add Programs to the RemoteApp Programs List
To make a program available remotely to users through RemoteApp Manager, you must add the program to the RemoteApp Programs list.
1. On the RD Session Host server, open RemoteApp Manager. To open RemoteApp Manager, click Start, point to Administrative Tools, point to Remote Desktop Services, and then click RemoteApp Manager.
2. In the Actions pane, click Add RemoteApp Programs.

3. On the Welcome to the RemoteApp Wizard page, click Next.

4. On the Choose programs to add to the RemoteApp Programs list page, select the check box next to each program that you want to add to the list of RemoteApp programs. You can select multiple programs. For example, I am going to add Safari and Mozilla Firefox then click Next.
5. On the Review Settings page, review the settings, and then click Finish.

The programs that you selected should appear in the RemoteApp Programs list.

How to enable Remote Desktop (RDP) on Windows server 2012

Intro:

In this how-to we will walk you through on How-To Enable RDP in Windows Server 2012.

Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a protocol expanded by Microsoft that allows you to connect and control another computer via an existing network making it a remote connection.

Keep in mind that you can also use consle access to your server from VPSie console in case of emergencies as needed or to modify/configure RDP or network settings.

Prerequisites

  • A Server with Windows Server 2012. If you do not have a server already, you can create and spin a new server up in under 2 minutes.
  • RDP client from remote machine – this can be native windows RDP client on windows or MAC client such as 2X parallels client.

Enable RDP in Windows Server

Open the Server Manager from the taskbar/ Click on Local Server / Locate Remote Desktop under Properties which is currently Disabled and Click on Disabled

Server manager

System Properties window will appear. Select Allow remote connections to this computer and its recommended to check the box below.

You can also add specific users in the Select Users tab. By default, the administrator is allowed. You can add other users by clicking Select Users/ Click Add/ insert a username and click OK.

Remote Desktop username to allow – administrators already have access.

You can now verify that RDP is enabled and you can see that the status went from Disabled to Enabled.

Also make sure Firewall rules has been updated to allow incoming traffic – easiest way for testing is to disable firewall completely from control panel :

Go to Control Panel -> System and Security -> Windows Firewall

Click on the left sidebar the link:

Turn Windows Firewall on or off

and then select for each level to turn it on or off.

The last thing I want to to say, either you are getting dirty hands on linux or windows, do not turn off firewall. You can disable it for a while or for testing purposes, but if you want to stay secure ( as secure as you can ) do not turn it off.

Note: It’s recommended to add firewall rules to allow traffic as needed rather than disabling it however for quick test that would be easier – to accomplish this :

Enable the rule that permits access through the Windows Firewall.

1. Search for Firewall and open “Windows Firewall and Advanced Security”.
