RemoteApp in Windows Server 2012R2<\/strong><\/p>\n

To use Remote App on Windows Server 2012 R2, the server must be connected to a domain for RemoteApp to work (this was not a requirement in 2008 R2).\u00a0 See link below, in 2012 R2 (but not 2012), Active Directory can be on the same server as RD Connection Broker.<\/p>\n

http:\/\/blogs.msdn.com\/b\/rds\/archive\/2013\/07\/09\/what-s-new-in-remote-desktop-services-for-windows-server-2012-r2.aspx<\/a>\u00a0— See this section:\u00a0 “Single server RDS deployment including Active Directory.<\/strong> We now support running our RD Connection Broker role service on the same physical instance as an Active Directory Domain Controller. In addition, we published guidelines for how RD Session Host could be used without the RD Connection Broker.”<\/p>\n

Ways to Distribute RemoteApps in Windows Server 2012 R2:<\/strong>

1) Distribute using RD Web Access \u2013 similar to how it was done in 2008 R2 by going to your site: http:\/\/IPofSERVER\/rdweb
\nhttp:\/\/technet.microsoft.com\/en-us\/library\/ee216776.aspx<\/a> 2008R2Access RemoteApp and Desktop Connection by Using the RD Web Access Web Site
\nhttp:\/\/technet.microsoft.com\/en-us\/library\/cc731508.aspx<\/a> 2008R2 Connect to Remote Desktop Web Access<\/p>\n

2) Distribute using Web Feed URL in the control panel – In 2008R2, you could create .rdp files using RemoteApp Wizard but that has been replaced in 2012 and the Web Feed method is recommended.

Another approach (which isn\u2019t specific to RemoteApp) is to create remote desktop shortcuts \u2013 see video on our website – http:\/\/www.riptidehosting.com\/Dedicated-Server-Configuration-Videos.aspx<\/a> These shortcuts can be made regardless of remote app but users have the ability to edit them.<\/p>\n
