Hello,

I have a problem with an XP workstation that i connect to remotely via a
modem dialup. The machine is setup to accept dial in connections, and
allocate an IP address etc...

It all works fine, except that the machine will not answer a dial in call
unless i get someone to log in to the machine for me first, which is a pain.

Any ideas?
Thanks

To complete this thread, this problem was caused by the machine being set to
enter standby\hibernation mode after x minutes. Disabled it, and can now
dial in OK.
