DSfW

Remote Desktop is not working for DSfW domain users from windows 7 workstation

1. Join a Windows workstation (say Workstation-A) to DSfW domain.

2. Now in any other windows-7 workstation (say Workstation-B) go to run and type "mstsc", it will open "Remote Desktop Connection".

3. In "Remote Desktop Connection" window provide the IP Address of Workstation-A (which is joined to DSfW domain).

4. It will ask for user name and password, here provide DSfW user (like <domain_name>\<user_name>) and give password for that user.

This does not affect Windows XP.

Fixed in the September 2014 Maintenance Patch

Underlying Issue is same bug 817506 / KB 7014985.
