Remore Desktop disconnects after logging in.
I am experiencing something i can not reproduce
on other computers at our office. I work as the admin from a remote
office and use a vpn connection with the Administrative Remote Desktop
console to connect to workstations at the head office. Up until
recently, all of this has worked without any problems. Now all of a
sudden one machine will disconnect about a minute after supplying the
login credentials. There is no error message displayed, nothing warning
you that "you dont have sufficient rights" or "local policy does not
permit". The screen goes from logging on, to black, to disconnecting.
This happens both, when I try connecting as the local user or
administrator. I know that the users do have access to connect, so that
is not the problem.Now, if i have the user restart the
computer, and then i connect before they log on, then Remote Desktop
works. however, when the user leaves for the day, and does a Shutdown,
Log Off. The problem reoccurs.I don't know what is causing this
disconnection to happen, and can not find any other cases of people
experiencing this sort of problem.TIA,MattP.S. The host computer is winxp pro w/sp2 I have tried the client computer being XP Home, XP Pro, Vista Business. all with the same result.
