Issue with Remote Desktop Connection

First time I've posted to this group. Let me know if there is another group that would be better to post this in.
I have been using Remote Desktop to connect to various different computers running XP Pro from another XP Pro machine.
I've been having problems with two of them, which seem to have the same symptoms.
* After I restart them I can log in using Remote Desktop just fine. Later I can not and have to restart the remote system.
* I have tied to make sure I "log off" the remote machine instead of just closing the remote desktop window.
* When it fails, it usually connects and asks for credentials. After submitting my user name and password it just sits there for a while then the window closes.
* One of the machines is also connected to it's own monitor/keyboard/mouse. When I'm having connection problems I can not get it to display anything on the monitor. There is a printer connected to it, and that and other services continue to work, so I know the system is still running.
* I have tried disabling sleep mode on both machines, but no luck.
* I have not seen any messages in the Event logs that appear to be connected to this.
* One machine is on a domain with a SBS 2003 server. I can login to the server and manage the remote machine. I can not remotely restart the machine from the server unless I tell it to force hung applications to quit.
From all this I wonder if the some service used by remote desktop is not closing properly when I log off the remote machine and is not letting me login again since it is still running.
Any thoughts or ideas would be great!
