Apps run differently from Remote Desktop

My main application runs fine when STARTED from the embedded device but if launched during a Remote Desktop session it has some problems. The app starts ok and does not hang itself or the OS but it does exhibit some problems that are not present when started locally on the embedded device
Only STARTING the app from Remote Desktop will cause the problems
What are the privilege restrictions to RemoteDesktop. This will be a headless device and I want to give all possible privileges and control to myself via R.D
The developer of the app asked me to verify that the RD user had access to all the available memory. Is the remote user limited to a certain amount of memory or other resources
 
JimC,

I haven't seen the problem you are facing but here is a couple of hints that
may help you...

Check "Local Computer Policy/Computer Configuration/Administrative
Templates/Windows Components/Terminal Services" policy settings on your
target (e.g., Remote Control settings) for anything suspicious. Maybe your
Remote users do not have enough permissions to launch specific app.

MS has released (1/9/03, I think) RDP 5.2 client. It is available for OEMs
(https://microsoft.embeddedoem.com/content.asp?path=/downloads/winxp/feature
s/828665). You may want to try to repro your problem with the RDP update.

Also, you always have an option to monitor your app launch with
Regmon/FileMon (even under Remote Desktop session) to see if there is any
errors/problems.
