Hi all,

We seam to have found a potential bug in the RDP client shipped with
windows 7 and above (and windows XP with the latest rdp client
installed) where it would appearer the following is happening.

Windows7
Starting the RDP client and clicking connect and using the cached
username - No cookie is sent
Starting the RDP client and setting a username - Cookie is sent correctly
Starting the RDP client and setting a username then disconnecting and
using another username without restarting mstsc - Original username is
used for the cookie and not the new username, only way to get the
client to send the correct cookie is to close the client and restart
it.

Windows XP - Latest version from Microsoft website
Starting the RDP client and clicking connect and using the caches
username - No cookie is sent
Starting the RDP client and setting a username - Cookie is sent corretcly
Starting the RDP client and setting a username then disconnecting and
using another username - Original username is used for the cookie and
not the new username, only way to get the client to send the correct
cookie is to close the client and restart it.

However the original XP version (Windows XP SP3) that was not upgraded
behaves correctly and sends the cookie as it should and as detailed
here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc240470%28prot.20%29.aspx
under cookie (variable):

Has anyone seen this before and have a fix? the main issue we are
seeing is users are not being reconnected due to the missing cookie
and not every user is being logged in the stick table.

Kind Regards,
