HI,
After I remote to various machines on my network, users will call to say they can't log in locally, that the error says something about only an administsrtor can log in, or that they don't have the rights to login. I have them reboot, but what a pain in the butt? Why does the terminal service not TERMINATE? It's as if I'm still conected to their PC as admin, and it takes a reboot to terminate the connection. (Or someone with admin rights to unlock the PC. I've searched the knowledgebase - any suggestions? Thanks, Lissa |

Do you logout versus disconnect?

Yes, I log off when I'm done. I would only disconnect if I needed services to continue running as admin with no interruption, correct? It doesn't happen all the time, but with over 200 Users, I want to return the PC to a usable state, back at the ctrl-alt-del screen
To have them call in that they are refused entry on the PC, and that they have to literally shut off the PC to get back in, is inconvienent and time consuming for both parties Thanks, Lissa |
