Windows Vista RDP Disconnects

I am having an issue with the RDP client disconnecting my sessions to
terminal servers after an idle period. The issue is not on the servers,
because I do not get disconnected when I use a windows xp machine to connect
to the servers. I have tried modifying the idle timeouts in the registry,
and local policy, but those only seem to change the server settings, not the
client settings.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Hadi

The first thing to do is go into Device Manager and double-click on your
network adapter to get its properties. Click on the Power Management tab
and uncheck "allow Windows to turn off this device when not in use". The
language may be different but the concept will be the same.

See if that helps.

Then I'm sorry but I don't know. Hopefully someone more expert in Terminal
Services/RDP matters with Vista will happen along. Or you could try posting
in one of the server newsgroups where the gurus there may have already run
into this and know how to fix it. Here's a list of all the MS newsgroups:

I'm sorry I wasn't able to answer this for you.
