What I need to do is increase the number of
authentication retries and the timeout tolerance
during the login procedures
to work around a poor quality connection .
Where are those values controlled?
I would presume a registry entry
but I'm not comfortable modifying registry keys
based on "that looks like the right one".
Does anybody know where these values are controlled,
or what documentation has that info?
I have to set up a network connection between two XP machines
over a slow and unreliable RF connection.
Setting one machine up to accept incoming calls
and the other to "dial-up" works occasionally.
When it fails it is because of signal loss or delay
during "Verifying User ID & Password"
or "Registering System with Network".
The error message returned indicates either time out
or loss of connection (no surprise, the RF signal is shaky).
I'm hoping a greater tolerance for errors will let me get the
connection going. Once connected the application that uses the
network connection is already fairly fault tolerant.
