Can't Access Remote Device With Logon Message RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have a Server 2003 machine which I added as a Live Mesh Remote Device. The connection is fine, I am presented with the Ctrl-Alt-Del prompt, however, this machine has a logon message prompt which it appears Live Mesh cannot handle.

    When I send the Ctrl-Alt-Del command to the remote server, the logon box and message window both display for less than a second, and then immediately I am brought back to the Ctrl-Alt-Del prompt. I'm not able to enter credentials, thus cannot log in to this machine.

    I've tried several ways of getting past this with no success, including hitting Ctrl-Alt-Del twice, as well as trying to quickly tap the Enter key and Space bar in the hopes of making the message prompt disappear. I know I could just disable the message prompt, but this seems like a bug that I wanted to bring attention to. Please let me know if anyone has any advice (besides disabling the message prompt).

    Thank you.

  • So reading through other threads on this board, I see that Server 2003 is not yet a supported OS for Live Mesh, however I could see this being a problem on an XP or Vista machine which has this setting enabled via Group Policy, so still hoping someone can assist.
