This blog will help you to setup remote desktop gateway on Windows server. How to understand remote desktop gateway, provide an overview of security issues, and discuss how best to address common problems. Remote Desktop Gateway is a Remote Desktop Services role on Windows Server that is utilized to provide secure access to remote desktops and published Remote Apps from the Internet through an HTTPS gateway. A server with the RD Gateway role is an intermediary between external RDP clients and internal RD services. When using RDGW, users don’t need to install a VPN to connect to RDS in a corporate network. The Remote Desktop Connection client (mstsc.exe) is used to connect.
Setup Remote Desktop Gateway in Server
Install the Remote Desktop Role
Connect to the host server using RDP with admin credentials.
Open the Server Manager and select Add Roles and Features.
Click Next.
Select “Role-based or feature-based installation” and click Next.
Choose a server from the server pool and click Next.
In the Features role, click next. On the Remote Desktop Services, click next. In the Select roles service page, select Remote Desktop Gateway.
Click Add Features when prompted. Click Next.
In Network Policy and Access Services, click Next. Network Policy and Access Services, click next. Web Server Role (IIS), click next. Role services, click next. In the Confirm installation selections, click Install and wait for the installation to complete.
Installation successful.
You must now implement the Connection Authorization Policy.
Create Connection Authorization Policy and Remote Authorization Policy
Connection Authorization Policy (CAP): you can specify which groups can access resources behind the Remote Desktop Gateway. You can also use Active Directory Users or Active Directory Computer Objects groups. Resource Authorization Policy (RAP): This policy allows you to restrict server access based on group members. You will need to create Active Directory groups and add servers to these groups.
Search Remote Desktop Gateway Manager and open it.
Expand Policies and select Connection Authorization Policies. Right-click on it, select Create New Policy, and choose Wizard.
Select “Create an RD CAP and an RD RAP (recommended)” and click Next.
Create a Connection Authentication Policy
Type a name (Policy-Allowed-for-RDGateway) for your Connection Authentication Policy and click Next.
Click Add Group… To create one or more user groups associated with this RD CAP. Users who belong to these groups can access this RD Gateway server. The most effective approach is to create a separate user group in Active Directory to which you add users you want to enable using Remote Desktop Gateway. For this example, we created a group in Active Directory named RDGW.
Click on add group.
Type group name (RDGW), click check names, and choose ok.
Click Next.
In Device Redirection, you can determine if RD Gateway should transfer local resources, such as printers and ports, to the remote desktop machine for someone who accesses a computer remotely. You do not have to alter anything unless you specifically want to. Click Next.
Check the box “Enable idle timeout” and “Enable session timeout” and then click next.
In RD CAP settings summary, click next.
Create a Resource Authorization Policy
Type a name (Servers-Available-Via-RDGateway) for your Resource Authentication Policy and click next.
Click Add Group… to add one or more user groups that will be allowed to access network resources. Users in these groups will be able to access servers on the network via the remote desktop. For this purpose, we selected the same RDGW group when constructing the Connection Authorization Policy. Click next
Click Browse and select a group that contains the servers you want the above user groups to access the desktop.
For this guide, we chose the built-in group called Domain Controllers. However, you can create one or more groups of servers, one for each department. This allows you to assign groups based on department users, enabling them to access only certain servers.
Select “Allow connections to these ports” and specify the port. Otherwise, select “Allow connections only to port 3389”. Click next
In RD RAP settings summary, click Finish.
The new authorization policy wizard will create your CAP and RAP policies. Click close
We have installed the Remote Desktop Gateway and created CAP and RAP policies. You now have to install an SSL certificate on RD Gateway.
Install an SSL Certificate on RD Gateway
The Remote Desktop Gateway requires a valid SSL certification. For this guide, we utilized a self-signed certificate. We strongly suggest you purchase an SSL certificate for your server (using a fully qualified domain name) from a commercial Certificate Authority (CA) or a wildcard SSL certificate for the domain.
We already have your SSL certificate; you can follow these instructions to install the SSL certificate on Remote Desktop Gateway. In the Remote Desktop Gateway Manager, click the name of your gateway server and then click Properties.
Navigate to the SSL Certificate tab and select or import an existing certificate.
Select your pfx certificate file from the file system and type the password for the certificate when prompted. You have successfully installed the certificate on the default SSL port (TCP Port 443) so that you can import the certificate.
How to Test Remote Desktop Gateway Connection
The easiest way to test your Remote Desktop Gateway connection is to configure your Remote Desktop Client to access the Gateway server. If your host computer and Remote Desktop Gateway are ready, follow the steps. Launch the Remote Desktop Connection app (Start, type “remote desktop connection”), and launch Remote Desktop Connection.
Select the Advanced tab. Under the Connect from anywhere section, select Settings.
Select the RD Gateway server settings, enter your hostname or IP, and click OK.
Select the General tab and click Connect.
Provide your Remote Desktop Gateway Server credentials, and after you have been authenticated onto the Gateway server, provide your credentials to be authenticated onto the Remote Desktop server.
This article explains how to change Google Ads end date on your Google ads. In addition to all websites and apps, they decided to update the site. I had to find out where everything was moving. In this guide, I want to explore how you can find and change the Google Ads end date again. This way, your ad will not run for a long period of time, which could indicate that you might be unable to afford it.
Change Google Ads End Date
This will be shown on my computer using my Google Ads account. On your Google ads account, locate the left menu. Make sure you are on Campaigns, and if not, click it. Next, you will have options under the Campaigns tab to the left of that first button.
Click Campaigns to view the drop-down menu and select the Campaigns link. In the middle of the screen, this will give you a list of the campaigns you are running. Click on the setting icon next to the campaign name of the one you want to change the end date on.
In the Google ads campaign settings, click on start and end dates.
Go to the date you wish your ad to end. After that, click on the Save button at the bottom of the screen. Done…
Change Google Ads Budget
Here is the detailed view of your ad. Scroll down until you locate the Budget section. You should observe the end date that you have already set up here and your budget. On the bottom of this page, click the Manage link. On this screen, you can alter your daily budget, but we are here to change the end date. In the section, how long will your ads run? Click the downward arrow to the right of the date. This will provide a calendar. You now know where the end Date is and how to modify it. I wish they would stop moving things around and leave them where they are.
This blog will explore how to use breaks in Word 365. Users who are not familiar often mistakenly make the mistake of creating new sections or pages by simply hitting their Enter key repeatedly until they have created the appearance of a new page or a new section in their document. It drives me crazy when I receive a document to work on and encounter this. It takes a lot of time and keystrokes. I am all about getting things done efficiently and quickly.
The issue with this technique is that if you or anybody else goes back and modifies a previous paragraph in the document, inserts an image, or resizes anything that occurs before all those carriage returns, all of that space just shifts to an unexpected location in the content.
You need to know that a break is different than just pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. In fact, if you open any Word document and enable the Show/Hide feature, you will see all of the hidden formatting marks (non-printing characters) in that document, including all spaces, pilcrows (paragraph markings), and section breaks.
All spaces will appear as tiny dots between each word if your formatting marks are visible. Section breaks, however, will appear in dotted lines with the words Section Break and then the kind of break following in parentheses.
You can create two basic types in Word: Page breaks and section breaks. Most people are familiar with page breaks and the most popular. However, there are also other types of page breaks: column and text wrapping. A column break stops the text in one column and repeats the text at the beginning of your next column. A text wrapping break will separate text from objects on web pages. Those three breaks are the type of page breaks you will find in Word. This leads us to create a page break and a section break.
Use Breaks in Word 365
Follow the steps below to learn how to use breaks in Microsoft Word 365. Once your document is completed and you have decided which type of break will work for you, save your document. Firstly, you must move your insertion point to where you would like your break to begin. You must go to the layout tab and Breaks, which will open the Breaks menu.
Toward the top, you will see Page. Click on this to insert a page break. That was easy. Now, we can move to the section breaks. There are different types of section breaks besides the one we discussed earlier, which starts a new section and keeps the text on the same page. These include the next page break, the even page section break, and the odd page section break.
What is the reason why all these breaks are necessary? The answer is that section breaks are useful when you want a portion of your document to look different and stand out more than the rest. Each section can have its own look, with its own page orientation, style, headers, and footers, and other ways of formatting.
Follow the instructions below to learn how to insert a section break. Move your insertion point to where you would prefer your break to start. In the Layout tab, click Breaks. It will open the Breaks menu.
In the middle of the menu, you will see Section Breaks. Select Continuous to insert a continuous section break.

How to Verify Group Policy on a Computer
From a PC where group policy applies, use the gpupdate /force command to update the GPOs and then restart the computer. From a PC where group policy applies, use the gpupdate /force command to update the GPOs and then restart the computer.
After restarting the system, log in to the task scheduler and then the task scheduler; you must open the task scheduler as an administrator, otherwise, you will only see the scheduled tasks of the logged-in user. As we can see, the scheduled task has been added, and the computer will automatically reboot every day as you configured it.
Conclusion:
In this blog, you have learned how to create a group policy to create a scheduled task and how to program the automatic restart or shutdown of computers. This solution effectively allows the automatic shutdown of computers at a scheduled time; however, it is not possible to stop the task if, for some reason x or y, a user is still working on the computer. will be turned off.
