Another problem that I see quite frequently is when the VNC Server has both
a Default Password and User-Level password defined. For some reason that I
have still not been able to figure out, VNC Server allows this. When the
machine is logged off, you need the Default Password to access the session.
When you log in, it detects that there is a user-level password defined, and
wants you to re-connect.
The only workaround that *I* have been able to find is to locally log into
the server with each user that will be using VNC, edit the registry, and
delete the HKEY_CURRENT_USER keys for VNC. (Thereby leaving only the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE keys in place.)
Thanks

Subject: Re: persistent connection drops
The only time I have seen a remote login/logoff cause a VNC drop is when
the server has different screen resolutions for login than it has for
normal use. That is why I gave the extended explanation that I did. When
you log in LOCALLY, does the monitor click or do anything to suggest that
it is changing resolutions?
