SYMPTOMS
When a Terminal Server desktop application uses a serial port that is re-directed from a Microsoft Windows CE .NET-based Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) client, the application cannot receive data. Calls to the Win32 WaitCommEvent function do not indicate that data has been received from a serial device.
