Hi All,
I'm using a machine that has XPe on it and I want to use it as a terminal. I'm using minlogon to reduce bootup time and get around the problem of custom shells not auto restarting with the 'fat' winlogon. I've tried setting the shell to
This works and the shell will restart fine but on the very first load of the shell, it won't connect to the terminal server. I think this is down to the shell launching before the NIC is ready so i set about making a batch file to slow it all down.
My batch file will take about 1-15 seconds to get up to 100% and will then call another batch file to load the same file as the code above.
The problem is that I have had to put a PAUSE in the batch file else it keeps spawning new terminals until the machine crashes. I want to avoid the user input of having to 'press any key' to load a new RDP window once the old one expires (after about a minute if it's not logged on)
Any help much appreciated.
Regards,
Gav
