Hi, i was wondering if anyone knows how to stop thinstation / terminal server disconnecting when the user logs off the session and going to the reconnect dialogue; Also whether there is a way of stopping thinstation timing out when the machine is turned on at the windows log-on screen. Thanks dperrott

Hi, Don't know if this helps you, i've been playing with thinstation for a couple of weeks now, with RIS running side by side. we are only trialing it at the moment and as such this was the quickest way i could work out. The way i did it was to use the macaddress of the workstation and set up a dhcp a reservation with the thinstation image(thinstation.nbi) as option 67 within the reservation, leaving the scope options alone. i am also using the machines GUID to 'prestage' it in the domain and boot a specific boot rom from rom-o-matic using the remote install server setting. i couldn't get the thinstation boot rom to boot correctly for some reason. this could work as a long time solution if you are planning to roll out a specific number of workstations as thin clients. hope this helps dperrott
