Product Line
TAC Vista
Environment
- Remote desktop
- TAC Vista
- Windows 2008 Server or Windows 7
Cause
When using Remote Desktop with a Windows 2008 Server and disconnecting, the TACOS process may end up in a "sandbox" and can not be reached by other people trying to log in remotely. Or, the Vista Server can't be started.
Resolution
The attached Tacos RDP Disconnect contains scripts that will disconnect a Remote Desktop session back to the physical session if tacos.exe is running. If tacos.exe is already running on the physical session or is not running at all, nothing happens.
