Does anyone know what the default time on an XP machine is for the Remote Desktop Connection before it automatically logs you out? Do you know how to change this?
 
I think this is in the group policy settings

gpedit.msc

User Config > Admin Templates > Windows Components > Terminal Services > Sessions

I dont know if these are the right settings but remote desktop is basically Terminial Services....
in this menu there are settings for...

Set time limit for disconnected sessions
set time limit for active sessions
set time limit for idle sessions
allow reconnection from original client only
terminate session when time limits are reached


I'd mess around with these and see if it makes a diff.
