So after a solid week of research, installation, reinstallation, and troubleshooting (and not necessarily in that order) I discovered why I couldn't get my server to work even when following some excellent step by step instructions.
RemoteFX actually requires two physical GPU's. Nowhere is this mentioned in the documentation because on servers chipset (and now integrated CPU) GPU's are basically at 100% penetration. RemoteFX needs the discrete GPU that will power the VM's and enable resource sharing. RemoteFX also needs a secondary display adapter to run the video capture software on. Why this is not mentioned anywhere or had to be implemented in this way I have no idea but there you have it.
RemoteFX actually requires dual GPU's even if one is extremely weak or even software based.
Hope you aren't stuck with an adapted Dell workstation without a video out and only one PCIe x16 slot :(
