auto logon / password

Are you using the Enterprise Edition? If so, try using a Credential Entry/Repository. See if the problem goes away.

Hi,
Have you specified the domain field for your username even if you are in the current domain ?

Hi all,

Thank you for your answers.
I use Enterprise Edition and I tested with credential with the same result; It works with another domains or workgroups but not in the same domain than my computer (without firewall between servers and PC in the current domain).
Of course I tried too to specify the domain name in the field "domain" or "user name" without success.

Hi,
Just to confirm, you tried in external mode and also in embedded mode ?

Hi,
Yes, I tried external and embedded mode (I use RDM since few versions).
I don't understand why it works fine with others domains / workgoups and not in the same domain :-(

Regards

It's weird, one last test, can you try to save the password with mstsc.exe and see if the auto login works? If it does not, maybe there is a policy set on your domain to prevent auto logon?

If I save the password in mstsc.exe it doesn't works too. However your point about a policy on this domain is interesting and I'm going to check that (I'm not alone to configure policy on this domain).

Hi,
I don't if this might help:

Hi,
Thank you very much for your help. someone in our team created a policy for this domain with a parameter "always ask password for login". I was very far to think about this case. Thanks a lot
