Guest ITFiveO Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Question 1 - In 2008 Terminal Server, we are publishing an application. When the client runs the application all is well until they have 10 minutes of inactivity. Then the terminal server session will lock to a sign-in screen. How do I get rid of this? I know the default setting on 2008 for the console is to lock in 600 seconds (10 minutes). If I change this registry setting for the console, will it change it for my published application sessions also? Question 2 - Same scenario as above, except wait even longer for the client machine to go to screen saver mode. When this happens the and we unlock the client machine, the terminal session (published application) is still there, it is just locked up and does not respond. I have looked at the Terminal Manager on the sever when this happens. It still shows an active session, but no traffic on the session. Any suggestions?

Screen savers are controlled by user policies. As for the second, are you sure you're unlocking the session and not simply the workstation?

However we can not get it to restore or maximize to even be able to show us a login screen to the terminal session. "Jeff Pitsch" wrote: > The first can easily be configured with Group Policy.
