Unlock Computer Window and System Login Screen Greyed Out

[Guest Bryan Smith]

Hello,

 

I have a server running Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard, and starting today,

when the session locks, the 'Unlock Computer' window will grey out and

disable the username and password fields.

 

The only resolution I have found is to reboot the server, however, since

this server is pretty important in our environment, I was wondering if anyone

had an idea on how to resolve without the repeated reboots.

 

This is happening to the lockout/login screens from Remote Desktop sessions,

VNC sessions, and from the system console.

Bryan,

I have absolutely no idea really about this, but if you are also running VNC

maybe you are seeing someone else's session on the screen, which you can't

log out/ unlock
