I have just install our first 6.5.2 server on Windows 2003 and the domino console screen is not showing. The server is running as a service and is work okay apart from the fact I can not see the console. Any ideas how to get this back ?
The console can be seen on our Windows 2000 servers.

try this, go to the properties of the service, Log On tab, and check the box “Allow service to interact with desktop”

I already have this set and it has not made any difference.
The Domino tasks are running under the SYSTEM account and I am logging in using Administrator.
I have tried making Administrator the owner of the Notes Services but this changed the owner but the console did not appear.

This may seem like a really simple response, but if you ALT + Tab until the you access the Console window, and it still does not appear, then likely it has been dragged off of the screen. To bring it back, hold your ALT key down, press your space bar once. This should bring up the properties box of the window. Look for the properties box, and using the arrow keys on your keyboard, press the arrow(s) that move away from the properties box. For example, if the properties box appears on the lower right, press the left and up keys to move the window to where you can see it.

I was using Microsoft built in Remote Control Software - Remote Desktop Connaction. I have dicovered that what I needed to do was connect to the console of the Server. With the command of
mstsc -v:servername /F -console

Fantastic…(mstsc -v:servername /F -console)
Works for me.
I had a 2003 server with dom 6.5.1 and could not see the Domino console when connecting via remote desktop but when you place the above command in your command line to connect to the server then it works perfectly
