Terminal Services Client That Is Using a Smart Card Cannot Connect to the Terminal Server

When a terminal services client uses a smart card to log on to a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 terminal server, the client computer cannot connect to the terminal server.

This behavior may occur if the client computer is a member of a workgroup.

To work around this behavior, join the client computer to the domain, and then log on with the smart card. The terminal services client must be a member of the domain to log on with a smart card.
