Re: Auto Logon and RDP

Short answer.... they are different sessions. You *can* connect using the same session if you use the proper parameters. I can't remember the flag needed, but I'm sue others will pitch in.

Why do you need to auto logon to servers? This is not recommended for obvious security reasons...

I am going to set up auto logon on a couple of Windows Server 2003

have user abc auto logon to the machine, and then I use remote desktop
and connect using the same user, do I control the same session, or
does it create a new one?

Thanks,
