I am new hear and I am in a world of hurt. My W2k Server,
is in a datacenter - and to make a long story short - for
the last two years I have been using Terminal server as a
way to remotely administer the server.

Trying to connect using Remote Desktop Connection. Over
the past month - month and half - I noticed that TS was
erroring out - saying it couldn't find the server. So I
physcially went to the location of the server and had my
partner attempt to connect via RDC and via the web based
TSC app. Both times up lauching the apps to the ip address
or via the domain name - the server rebooted itself - no
blue screen - just a fresh reboot - no error logs in the
Event Viewer.

Does anyone one know what would be cuasing this - we are
runing W2k Server Service pack 3 (I think don't remeber if
I installed 4 last time I was there.)
 
Have you tried to configure the server to halt on a STOP error, to
see if it produces a blue screen with a STOP error code then?

If it still reboots after that (without halting), the most likely
cause would be a hardware problem, I would say. Run all the
diagnostics software that came with your server.
 
Hi,

I also had this problem after intalling Sophos Anti-
Virus. I had to exclude the RDPDD.DLL file from being
scanned because the server was being rebooted when
connected to via RDP.
