Incorrectly configured NLB?  Do you see anything on the advanced tab for a 
second IP address?  How about if you run:

Get-netipinterface | fl                    (2012+)

               Or

Netsh int ipv4 show config

Subject: [NTSysADM] RDPing into the wrong IP address




Having trouble understanding this one...



I have a customer with (3) 2008 R2 servers all running RDS-terminal services.



RDS1 - 10.1.3.7

RDS2 - 10.1.3.8

RDS3 - 10.1.3.9



Here's the weirdness.  For example,

* If I try to RDP into 10.1.3.7 (by IP address!! not by hostname), I actually 
get logged into 10.1.3.8

* If I try to RDP into 10.1.3.8 (by IP address!! not by hostname), I actually 
get logged into 10.1.3.9

* If I try to RDP into 10.1.3.9 (by IP address!! not by hostname), I actually 
get logged into 10.1.3.7



I am on the same local subnet as those servers, so I've ruled out something 
like the firewall or router having some weird redirect...  Also pretty much 
ruled out some weird DNS issue because I'm attempting to access them via IP, 
not hostname.   Another oddity is, when accessing 
\\CEO-RDS01\c$<file:///\\CEO-RDS01\c$> , I do get the proper server (so it's 
not redirected then.....), and same thing for the other two servers, accessing 
their UNC paths takes me to the correct servers.  I thought perhaps some 
old/retired RD Gateway settings or something, but none of the 3 servers have RD 
Gateway services installed/running.



Mainly it just seems to be when accessing the servers via IP address using RDP 
that I get connected to a server I shouldn't.



The only way I can get onto the specific server is from the VMWare vSphere 
Client.   Weird.



Any ideas?
