I am running a Win2k server SP2. I have to run service pack 2 because of an application running on the server. After a security patch was installed, remote desktop sharing fails to enable.

Then RDS icon appears in the system tray, but disappears when the mouse is moved over it.

Is there some security or permissions setting that needs to be adjusted, or is it just broken.

Upgrading to SP4 is not an option. Any help would be appreciated.
 
If the actual service is not running try starting it. Otherwise back out of the hotfix installation.
 
Unfortunatly, I don't know which hotfix it was that broke it.

When I try and start the service, it just doesn't start and the following is in Event Viewer:

Event ID: 7031
The NetMeeting Remote Desktop Sharing service terminated unexpectedly.
 
Netmeeting was set to "Use this certificate for privacy". Changed it to use privacy only. Also disabled receive video, and it now works.
