Hi - I connect to my home machine using RDC which is running XP Pro quite frequently from work. i used to be able to reboot the machine using taskmngr, then wait a few minutes, then reconnect to it no problem at all.

This week, I reinstalled XP Pro and reformatted my drive etc... I set up RDC and have connected successfully from work so far with no problem. BUT... now, when I reboot the remote machine, then try and go back later to reconnect it wont let me for some reason. It looks like it connects, then no sooner than it connects it immediatly logs off (never gets to the point of loading in the start button or menu bar or anything).

I basically leave my computer at home running, and not "locked" but with me still logged in.... i can connect... but for some reason, now it wont "log me in" like it used to...

Anyone have any ideas on this????

TIA

-Sean
