I am getting the following error when trying to install a MSI package remotely:

administrators have permission to add, remove, or configure server software during a terminal services remote session.

This is being used with an Admin ID to attempt install.

EnableAdminRemote is set to 1 in the registry as well....

Basicly, it is telling me I am not an admin, when trying to install software remotely....
 
better to install software on a TS when in a special 'install' mode, ie when noone is connected as a remote user, including yourself...

this said... is TS setup to remote administer, or to share applications to many users?

The problem is that I am being told to "contact an administrator" to install the software, but I am an administrator on this server...
