Re: RD, logging back in loads new desktop instead of old session

Didn't see anything checked. Is this something I should put in and set the
timeout really high, say 6 hours or something. Just odd that it used to work
fine and now doesn't.

be right where I left it, either with whatever process I had running at the
time still running or completed waiting for me to close it.
Now if I try to log back on even 10 minutes later it loads up a new desktop
and whatever process I had running is gone.
Any ideas what is happening here and why I can't just log back in to the
previous session?
Someone probably set a time out on the RDP-tcp listener.
Run TSCC.MSC on the box and go to RDP-tcp. Double click it.
Under 'Sessions' check the timeouts for disconnected sessions, idle and
active. That could be the issue.
