ParticipantHello,
I’ve recently download TSGrinder and I’ve been having issues running the application. When I run the application from the command prompt I get the following error:
tsgrinder timed_Event_send_recv: Wait failed: TIMEOUT
I’ve googled this error and it says to download and run the application from ROBOCLIENT. I downloaded this client but nothing is happening? What are the next steps to using roboclient and tsgrinder together?
BTW – I’m running XP SP3.

ParticipantThere was an update to mstsc mid-last year that broke the call backs. I’ve been trying to send this to pen-test, but it hasn’t been posted yet. I did send it to Thor, and he said he was going to take a look at it. I will post in a sec…

ParticipantMaybe soon this will finally show up on pen-test… 🙂
A while back I encountered an issue when using TSGrinder:
C:usrsbintsgrinder
>tsgrinder -u administrator -b -n 2 192.168.1.5
timed_Event_send_recv: Wait failed: TIMEOUT
Couldn’t get handle to client windowI was busy and didn’t have time to mess with it and it still worked on
one of my other computers.Over the holidays things were slow, so I decided it was time to look
into why I got the error. Turns out my first machine was fully patched
and the older moth-balled box wasn’t. The problem is due to the upgrade
of mstsc during a windows update.The workaround in a nutshell:
Download & Unzip TSGrinder
Obtain and place a copy of mstsc.exe and mstscax.dll version
5.1.2600.2800 (you may be able to find it in an $NTUninstall under
%windir%) in the same directory as TSGrinder.Place the following text in a new file called tsgrinder.exe.manifest
<assemblyIdentity
version=”6.0.0.0″
processorArchitecture=”x86″
name=”redirector”
type=”win32″
/>
DLL Redirection<assemblyIdentity
type=”win32″
name=”Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls”
version=”6.0.0.0″
processorArchitecture=”X86″
publicKeyToken=”6595b64144ccf1df”
language=”*”
/><file
name=”mstscax.dll”
/>And place it in the same directory.
This worked for me – anyone else?

Participantthanks for the post, somewhere i posted that i was just using an older version of the remote desktop software, or maybe it was the “new” version at the time, tsgrinder is a pretty old tool.

ParticipantDoes anyone know where to download a copy of these 2 files? I also had RDesktop begin to fail with a cannot get handle on window error. Has anyone seen a fix for it?

ParticipantGot it working. Stuffed a working copy for everyone here:
http://conservativebooktalk.com/files/tsgrinder.zipworks on XP sp3; if its a single logon box and someone is logged in, it won’t work. also, seems to fail after the first five password attempts when running from Win 7.
Enjoy.

ParticipantI didn’t have much luck with tsgrinder either.
I use a patched version of rdesktop I have on my backtrack vm.
