W2K Rollup 1 is stopping TS.

I have been able to TS into my W2K server until last Friday when I installed
rollup 1 for W2K. I have tried to stop and restart TS on the server, but I
can't. The service says that it is started, but all the commands like stop
and restart are grayed out. I have seen this before when a service is stuck.

I have disabled the service and rebooted the sever then started the service,
but that doesn't seem to work either. I am back to the same problem. It also
seems to affect the WSUS client since that server has not reported to the
WSUS server since I installed the patch. I don't want to uninstall the patch,
but if that is the only way to make it work then that is what I will do.

Does anyone have suggestions or had this problem before?
 
The fact that you cannot stop or restart the Terminal Server
service is by design, as documented here:

Exactly what is the problem when you try to connect to the TS? Do
you get an error message? Is the server listening on port 3389?
