    Dear

    Install the agent ControlMinder on a terminal server with Windows Server 2008 R2, after the agent has been installed, users of this server can not connect to the terminal server from computers that are not controlled by the ControlMinder.
    In the action of logging, you come to notice that this undertaking a login and then a logoff is performed.

    I need to configure something else? or it can be this lock Connection?

    I await your comments.

    Thanks for the help.

    Hi bbenny,

     

    There can be multiple reasons that i can think of due to which the connection to the terminal server has been blocked for the external users. Can you please elaborate a little more on whether there have been any access control policies deployed on the terminal server other than the baseline policies. And also are the accounts to  which the users are trying to access the terminal server are local accounts on the terminal server. If the accounts are local accounts then are they getting managed by PUPM?

    Has there been any firewall rule  changes effecting the terminal server access after the agent deployment?

     

    Warm Regards,

    Abhimanyu  Biswas

    Dear  Abhimanyu

     

     

    In the terminal server only has ControlMinder Agent installed, no access control policy deployed, in addition to the baseline policies, users access using your domain account, not using locales.Las access accounts accounts premises are not being managed by PUPM.

    There are no changes in the firewall rules.

     

    Thanks in advance for your comments and support.

    Hi Abhimanyu

     

    Unfortunately, they proceeded to uninstall forcefully the agent ControlMinder, this uninstallation has left residual data of the initial installation, which does not allow me to reinstall the agent ControlMinder because it gives me the following message: CA ControlMinder Installer Information Setup you have detected a previous installation of CA ControlMinder still present on your machine.

    Please reboot and try again.

     

    Already deleted files, folders, records and wastewater services uninstallation process, yet the message persists.

     

    I could miss it removed so you can reinstall the agent ControlMinder and thus able to review again?

    I await your comments.

     

    Thanks for the help.

    Hi Bbenny,

     

    Please check in the temp folder for a folder named pre-install. Delete the folder and then start the installation again. Remove registry entries if present.

     

    Warm Regards,

    Hi Abhimanyu

     

    Check the Temp folder and pre-install folder, delete the folders, registry entries related files and folders related; still, the same message persists.

     

    Some repository particularly need to clear in order to reinstall?

     

    I await your comments.

     

    In advance thanks for the help.

    Hi bbenny,

     

    Also in addition to my earlier comment. Please verify first if there are any residual services running related to CA controlminder. If so then please  run secons -sk which will stop the services. Then try the uninstall option within the uninstaller itself. Please document the observations and share if still it dosen't resolves.

     

    Warm Regards,

    Abhimanyu Biswas

    Hi bbenny,

     

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\AccessControl\PUPMAgent

     

    Do you have the above registry entry. Under PUPMAgent you will have EnableRunAsInterface. Change the value to 0. And then refresh and try to start the windows installer.

    If the above also dosen't work out. You can see an uninstall option when you start the agent installer. Try using that to uninstall any residual component.

    And please document all the above responses and let me know if still you face the issue further.

     

    Warm Regards,

    Abhimanyu Biswas

    Hi Benny

     

    Please let us know if STOP is also installed as a part of the ControlMinder installation?

     

    If yes suggest that you uninstall STOP and try reproducing the issue again.

    Hi Benny

     

    With windows 2003 and above STOP component is no longer required, as operating system also have the same ability and have known to cause conflict.
