"Your credentials did not work" remote desktop from Vista on Domain to vista non-domain offsite??

M

Does anyone know how to enable credentials to be saved in Vista when
part of a domain (I think its the domain causing this not to work, as
vista to vista inside the network works fine, or any xp to vista works
fine as well).. Or its an issue with connecting to a vista machine
which is offsite:

I get this error:

"Your system administrator Does not allow the use of saved credentials
to log on to the remote computer" "Because identity is not fully
verified" "Please enter new credentials"

Of course entering them works fine...

Thanks for any ideas...

Hi, Mattboy.

What "same issue"? When tagging onto another thread, please quote the
previous message so that we have SOME idea of what you are talking about.

Hi, Mattboy.
Sorry, I replied to an online forum at 'forums.techarena.in'. I didn't
realize I was posting to a newsgroup.

Aha! I understand.

I was quite surprised a few weeks ago to find some of my own messages on
several online forums that I had never heard of! :>( Apparently, operators
of those forums feel no guilt when they "slurp" threads from here on the
Microsoft public news server and post the contents as though they originated
on that forum. Perhaps no harm is done by this practice, and it does get
our help distributed widely, but it seems kind of dishonest to me. And it
can be harmful if a post is taken out of context or misinterpreted by a
reader of that pirate forum.

I'm sorry I can't help with your domain problem. I'm one guy with one
computer and no net but the Internet. I know nothing about domains.

The message seems to be self-explanatory. Without more information about
your domain and its management I can't be certain, but what I read from it
is that your domain administrator has imposed a group policy on your machine
that prohibits saving of passwords in a Remote Desktop Connection session.
From the GPO editor:

In the policy

Local Computer Policy
Computer Configuration
Windows Components
Terminal Services
Remove Desktop Connection Client

"Do not allow passwords to be saved"

Description: Controls whether passwords can be saved on this computer from
Terminal Services clients.

If you enable this setting the password saving checkbox in Terminal Services
clients will be disabled and users will no longer be able to save passwords.
[...]



If you think that you should be able to save passwords in a domain
environment you will need to talk to your domain administrator and convince
that person to either remove the policy or exempt your specific machine.
The administrator may have been the one to decide to impose this policy on
users as a security measure; if you're part of a large enterprise the
decision will more likely have originated in the information security office
(and be harder to change).
