Yes. I looked all through the event logs, and didn't see anything
relating to terminal services failures. And the terminal services
service is started.

If you mean, can I telnet to the server by name or by its IP address,
no. But yes, I can telnet to port 3389 on the server, and the cursor
sits there and blinks at me, but as soon as I hit any key, I get back to
my command prompt.

Yes. And, in fact, I have the same 2Gb pagefile on C: that I had before,
and no pagefile on E: So, I'm thinking that
A. I forgot to hit the set button, or
B. The server got confused.

No remote desktop UI at all. I immediately get the "disconnected from
server" message.

No problem. I'm snowed in, but the server is running. 

I guess what I'd like to do is see if I can reset the pagefile and
reboot the server, all remotely, and still manage to terminal service to
it and log in.

Thanks for your help, Laura. You deserve many pats on the back,
attagirls, and stuff.
