Disable "save my password" on remote desktop

[Steve T.]

I am looking at using remote desktop connection as a
remote access/vpn solution for our users to access their
XP boxes at the office from home. I am concerned,
however, that on their home pc, they will check the box
that saves their password. I'd rather not allow them to
do this for security reasons (others in their home
accessing our network).

Does anyone know of a way to disable this checkbox, thus
forcing the users to enter their password each time they
connect?

Regards,

Steve

You don't have any control over the things they do with their home PCs. I
understand your concern though.

You can force a password prompt if you are using Group Policy.

Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration >
Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Terminal
Services > Encryption and Security

Enable "Always prompt client for password upon connection".

Perfect. Looks like this will be a great solution.
