Hello!

We've got a single 2X-App-Server running under Win 2000 Server and it's just running fine - with Windows Clients.

We don't get ANY App to work with the Mac-Client of 2X. (We tried 2 Windows-Apps, a published Explorer and a published Desktop).

At first the screen went black and a new icon arrives in the dashbar. But the icon disappears after a few secounds. The space and the tooltip with the name of the app remains. But there is no app opening or anything further.

Is there any specialty we didn't recognized?!?

Please help!

Thx,

Stevie

PS: Btw, is there a possibility to increase the color depth? By now it's just 256 colors. Thx.
 
Please check the terminal server event log, most probably you have some problems with the terminal server licences.

Thx for your answer.

But neither in the Logfile nor in the event-log of the terminalserver is anything to find...

Any ideas?

Thx,

Win 2000 Server supports only 256 colors @ RDP.

Can you try to connect to the same windows server with the MAC MS RDC tool ?

I'm having exactly the same issue over here!
Connecting with the Microsoft Remote Desktop Utility is no problem.

Does anyone has a working Apple-client?

Thanks for every help!

2XApp client for MAC doesn't work

I am having the same problem too. Did anyonre know how to fix it yet? Please help...
 
Hi there,

An issue was found with the mac client when running color depth that is not set to 16 bits.

To solve this, make sure that on your servers you are limiting the Max Color depth to 16 bit (this settings is found in the Terminal services configuration, RDP-TCP properties, client settings)

NOTE: Win 2000 RDP only uses 8 bit so till now there is no solution at the time.

Hopefully in the next release this issue will be solved.
