Windows Server 2022 Remote desktop Server UDP issue

Hello everybody,

I have been facing this problem since my first configurations in Windows Server 2022 more than a year ago, I thought it was a passing bug which will be resolved quickly but I am still waiting, I will share with you so the details:

- Configuration: VM WS2022 Standard FRENCH: Roles: AD Server, RDS Server (Gateway+Host Server+License Server)

-Symptoms :

With default settings (UDP enabled in RD Gateway) the client connection is dropped after 3 minutes with the following message: "Remote Desktop Connection: Your Remote Desktop session ended because the remote computer didn't receive any input from you".

I tested the same configuration on other platforms (with other firewalls) I even tested on a physical server instead of the VM ; always the same problem.

I also did tests with other versions of Windows Server (2019, 2016): no errors, no connection drop.

The workaround is to disable UDP:

- Client side (registry): fClientDisableUDP at 1

or

- RDGateway side: Uncheck  UDP Transport option

or

-Firewall side: Block UDP port 3391

 

I haven't found much documentation of this issue  I'm posting in the hope that someone else is facing the same problem.

    Same exact issue. Forced TCP only for RDS and things are back to normal.

    Hello,
    RDS Host is not really supported on domain controllers. Probably not related, but I'll start with that.

      Thanks for your reply,

      Same configuration works fine on other OS version :2019, 2016 and 2012R2

       

      I'll change configuration and move AD role on other server.
