windows 2008 r2: RDP disconnect
on a fresh install of windows 2008 r2 w/ latest updates applied RDP sessions would immediately disconnect after login. then RDP services would appear to become unavailable. event viewer->application showed “faulting application name: svchost.exe_termservice… faulting module name: rdpcorekmts.dll…”
this is evidently caused by an update being applied prior to SP1 being applied. the solution i used was to uninstall update 2667402 and then install the latest windows updates again and reboot.
