hi all,
i recenlty moved over to windows XP and started using Remote desktop(RD) ,
unlike before when i was using Terminal services with windows2000.
After this move, every single time i access the same servers over RD, and
minimize the RD windows on my machine to work on some othe stuff, and go back
to this window after like 10-15 minutes, the session is disconnected. this
happens on all the machine in our office which is running windows XP pro
connecting to remote servers. Is there some kind of defult configuration
which causes this behaviour??
Please help, this has been really painful specially when i am working on
remote machines in Nigeria and i minimized the window to work on some other
stuff and then i go back to the RD window to this machine and i seek it
disconnected.
I make sure that this is not caused by the session time out property on the
servers. this has to be either pffice firewall ( which i have no knowlege
about, but then why only Xp machine , why not 2000) or some setting on my
local machine. Please somebody shed some light on this.
thanks
Sameer
