Down-under Terminal Server connection woes 2 - or "What's love (of encryption) got to do with it?"

What's in a name?  What's in a service pack?  Two (almost) identical questions when it comes to the world of Microsoft - for all Microsoft updates are not the same.

In my testing of the Windows 2008 R2 SP1 terminal server issue described in the previous post, it came upon me to test to a different terminal server - but one still located in the same subnet as the problematic one.  This revealed something very interesting.

If I used a Windows 2008 R2 (base) terminal server, I could not re-produce the issue from the same client that I was getting with Windows 2008 R2 SP1.

So, this puts us back to a very interesting question then.  What is it about the SP1 install that causes our client to only be able to connect once and only once?  This was the question that I was going to have to resolve.

(to be continued again...)
