connection error Thanks for your response. I purchased Connect PRO several months ago specifically for the ability to have unattended access, which was removed from the free version (with no advance notice, as you are aware.) Using the PIN previously provided very quick login; however, both of the alternate methods have issues. In fact, the "Join an active Windows session" option no longer works at all...and always states "PIN is invalid" (even though the PIN we set is the same as the Windows logon password). The "Connect using Windows logon credentials" option works most of the time, but is incredibly slow and cumbersome and seems to go through all sorts of screen refreshes and messages, and also requires additional steps and clicks before finally getting to the Windows desktop. However, this method is not 100% reliable and sometimes the connection attempt must be repeated several times before the login is successful. (I'll try to send another message tomorrow with more details about my specific use...if things don't get too weird too fast with the hurricane.)
