Remote Desktop Question

dadio202 · 23-July-05, 03:04 PM

Hello

When I use remote desktop my pc screen goes to the welcome screen so noone else can see what i am working on. Because both pcs are in the same room, how can I disable my monitor from displaying the welcome screen?

So you just log onto the other pc without the password?

If so i have never been able to do this myself always needed a password for it to work.

EDIT: If you are llokin to control the desktop across the network try using RealVNC

A password is REQUIRED for remote desktop....

I do enter a password when I conect to the remote computer at which the screen on remote computers goes to the welcome screen while I am connected. I would like the remote computer not to show the welcome screen, to stay logged in.

You wouldn't happen to know anything about Lotuses, especially the Elite, would you? I recognize your name.

Wonderful car.

Ontopic, I'm going to go on a limb and say that short of actually turning off the monitor, it's not possible.

the only thing i can think of is to simply disable the welcome screen entirely, to do that, you will need to go to the control panel, user accounts, and somewhere in there is an option to change the way users log on and off, and try to find a setting that equates to "dont use the welcome screen"...its in there somewhere...it supposed to apply only to when logging on or changing/switching users, but it might also get rid of it by default (across the board)...

something else, depending on your remote desktop software, you might have to go into the settings of the "server" part of the software, wether it be the windows remote desktop or PC Anywhere or TightVNC...the "slave/server/trojan" part of the software usually includes a great deal of customization you can do...

note: letting us know what software you are using might go a long way as to getting your problem solved...
