Hi I am connecting to a Vista desktop from a Windows XP 64 bit laptop. The RDP Client appears to be version 6. After a period of time (guessing 20 mins) the remote desktop connection disconnects. NB: A second RDP connection to a separate Windows XP SP3 computer does not. When I try to reconnect, I get the login screen, then when I try to login - the screen starts the login process, then...

I've been trying to figure out this problem for over a week now to no avail. It appears to be random, though I lose my connection every hour or so. Also, my connection seems to drop randomly at other times (It will still say im connected, though no data is transferred). The 2nd problem occurs much more frequently then the first. I will be browsing the web when all of a sudden I can't load...

I have a new Sony laptop that was having some problems, so I reformatted the drive and did a system restore. I took all the preinstalled junk off the computer, and then installed office 2007. When I went to create a VPN connection today I followed the standard process of clicking "Set up a connection or network," selected the VPN option and entered all the login info, etc. Regardless of whether...

I keep getting time outs when i upload to my website. I set my website folder as a mapped network drive, so now its accessible through Network window. I can download files from that folder with no timeouts, but uploading timeouts happen within 1:30 minutes. I have no problems uploading using FlashFXP. I would rather just be able to access and download using Vista's windows. FlashFXP is...

Hello! How to make a "Connect automatically" check mark stay in a "Dial-up Connection" window? The "Connect to:" field is "ADSL". The check mark disappears after a hibernation or restart.

Would you help straighten out my thinking on my LAN setup as to what device should respond to a ping plus what IP it would be providing? I was pinged by three machines in about 45 seconds last night in this configuration so I'm trying to figure out what is going on. My setup is: Motorola Cable Modem followed by a Netgear WRN2000 'n' router (firewall setup) then two machines with only one...

Hi I started my MCITP training. Our trainer told us, that there is a limit of maximum 25 Vista clients in a Vista workgroup. Is this correct? From my point of knowledge, there is only a limitation of 10 concurrent incomming connections. There is no limitation on the number of members in a workgroup. I know, a workgroup with above 20 clients for file- and printsharing makes no sence, but is...

Background: Vista Boxes with SP1: Domain joined Forrest and domain level:2003 Offline files beeing used with encryption. MS built in VPN client Smartcards are used for auth GPO Set to force users to syncronze their documents on logon and logoff (buisness requirement)

I am not sure if this is the right forum, but here goes: I have a desktop PC and a laptop, both connected to a network.

So I copied all the files to a network share, then opened that folder on my laptop and instructed the laptop to "make...
